Good seeing you in the video, I was was like what a minute I know that guy lol

@woodnutz78 Год назад

You need to drive another Z32 twin turbo... this time an E85-Haltech-OEM block that SHOULD push close to 500whp. I'll let you know once I have it reassembled and tuned 😁 For the record, I did mention TwinZ product in the last video 😉

@gurshaansingh986 Год назад

90% of the z32 owners including me would love to see a built VG in this. But if you have to do a swap a rotary would look sick. But i hope you keep this motor and show everyone the crazy potential on these motors.

@Z32TT93 Год назад

Yes please this is the one car that went under the radar 😢

@MrBenwright214 Год назад

Honestly as an na 300zx owner myself I would do a twin turbo build, there is room to fit front mounted turbos and use a front mount manifold, thats what i will be doing to mine one day when i can throw money at the motor. they are way easier to work on once you do all the deletes. And there's a kit to mount up a t56 to it as well.

@ericsykes3632 Год назад

I’m super bummed that you don’t want to keep the engine. You’ve done so many other JDM engines. The VG is very capable and there are many companies out there that make maintenance easier like r35 coil packs with a Polar Engineering kit. If you reach out to our community of z32 owners lots of us would be willing to help.

@chrissims436 Год назад

I agree as you can see my old 2+2 for my pic

KEEP THE VG30!! ❗❕‼️ Show us a clean OEM+ Z32 just as capable of not more than any RB / JZ and some great new upgrades from places like Merlin Machining and Polar Engineering

@caramrodttz4311 Год назад

Read thru some comments and didn't see it mentioned, but the 2+2 was never sold in America as a TT. Only the 2+0 (2 seater) was TT in America. Not all, but that's the only orientation that came TT from factory. So to answer Mickey I think who asked about it. Looks like it was a 2+2 N/A auto that swapped to manual. There was also an option for slick top (non t top) roof, but those were all N/A. The Z32 does share some suspension with the R32, S13 and S14 depending on year and trim, like TT or N/A. All in all I'm hoping they find a TT motor and build that instead of a swap. These motors are capable of over 1,000 horsepower when built, but honestly 500hp is plenty and a good number for the platform. And relatively easy to achieve. The twinz body kit is my favorite for the car. Imo looks better than pmz or kbd. Even the TT bumper with stillen lip or the 99 spec bumper would look great. Anyway, looking forward to following this build.

@jfishel Год назад

This person know what they're talking about. I've owned my Z32 for over 20 years. Z1, CZP and Specialty Z are your best online resources for this chassis. Good luck with the build!

@TaeSosaGaming Год назад

Please keep the vg. I’d love to learn and use these videos as reference to work on my own tt 300zx. No big RU-vid channel makes content on tt 300zx builds especially with the VG in it. All I ask is for vg 300zx tt content so I can use those videos for my build.

@gregspencer2083 Год назад

Keep the VG. It's a great platform if you build it right. I've got 1991 300zx with standalone ECU, 2867 turbos, e85, etc and it's a monster

@DanielLopez-zc4yf Год назад

Keep it VG30DETT powered and throw the twin z body kit on it 🔥

@auralxtc Год назад

a VR30DDTT 3.0L from 2015 era Q50 and that is in the new Z would be a cool modern day equivalent to the VG30ET V6 but saves about 100 lbs off the nose of the car. It is also very easy to modify and can get a reliable 500-600 HP on stock internals.

@changes8 5 месяцев назад

This would actually be super cool! Ugh idk what they decided to go with so we’ll see. 😊

@jackharris5957 Год назад

VR38DETT with the dsg box and working paddles. Big power 🔥 proper 90's car with a modern twist. Have a look at what Dimma uk did with their 205GTi and brought it right bang up to date!

@coreyo6192 Год назад

Please keep the VG!! For the purists!! Lol and TwinZ is probably the best looking kit out there atm. The KBD widebody kit is alright. But the TwinZ is just the perfect kit for the Z32 IMO!!

@Jpz707 Год назад

Build it!! I love the vg series but honestly would love to see a new Vr30 from the new q50/q60/z.

@enriquecrivera Год назад

It’s as big as the VG

@Complicated91 Год назад

A well built VG would be an awesome piece to have, sure they can be annoying on maintenance but there’s a lot of deletes and relocations that can be done to make it at least a little more livable! I think swaps are cool, but the VG would stand out a lot more

@wesleystevenson8669 Год назад

exactly

@woodnutz78 Год назад

Agree 100% - these guys need to consult with guys like Scott Taylor and Bernie Bilski through this build. Regardless, really looking forward to seeing what they put together!

@craigthomson4413 Год назад

Keep the VG . My best friend just rebuilt his VG for his 300z auto we live in New Zealand and he was buying parts from Z1 Motor sports in the USA. If you go look at the history of the 300z it was what started to make Nissan great again it was a head of its time with the styling and the engine power and you are right the car was designed around the engine.

@jacoblacroix9024 Год назад

I am stoked you guys are keeping it and turning it into one of your awesome projects! I love the idea of the Rotary 20 b engine swap ! Have dual flames out the back would look killer ! Make it sound like the Bad Apple!!

@Callum_Z32 Год назад

So stoked for this build! Do a forged vg. So bored of everyone doing the same engine swaps in everything. TwinZ or Abflug bodykit ftw!

@jtxp5942 Год назад

Honestly yes. Take the motor out and just build it

@wawalol2729 Год назад

Stick with the VG, great versatility great number and great reliability if done right the first time (which should happen since the engine would have to be taken out anyways). Been running my 600whp Z and its been an absolute gem. VG is underrated and underdone anything that would go in has been beat to death. Go crazy with the body but keep the heart pure.

@alexceni377 Год назад

yup when built right these things are tanks, been using my tt as a daily for almost 2 years now.

@Billy_Built Год назад

this!

@fresh_paint Год назад

Honestly I think you guys should keep the VG and restore this car to just be a mint 300zx. Super clean, not too crazy with the mods. I think that would be dope af.

@402SHO Год назад

I think a lot of us already said what engine we would like to see in the last video. And that’s the VG motor.

@dachild25 Год назад

I would love to see you put an RB motor in it, and seeing how much parts from the skyline parts are interchangeable. You guys did such an awesome job with the EV swap interior, basically making it a brand new car. You should do the same with this one, making it a OEM plus

@henrynewgent8481 Год назад

I still really wanna see a proper vg build. I think it’s more unique to see a vg in these than a engine swap at this point.

@alexceni377 Год назад

fr would be something different for once, vgs are bad ass when they’re built right.

The VG is a great engine, HUGE PITA but worth it. It’s a love hate relationship with them; they’re not friends everyone. Regardless of what y’all choose on engine swap, I’m ready for it !

@nfused Год назад

Rotary 20b with a big turbo and nice porting would be awesome or an NA quad rotor! Mad mike would be proud haha. Otherwise go for an RB26 single turbo. I’d love to see it with a rocket bunny kit, slammed with some 3 piece wheels!

@VeilSideZ32 Год назад

Rb26 = very tight fit have to cut the rad support and hammer the firewall, no rocketbunny kit exists for that car, wide body overdone

4g63 with AWD would be insane. And yes going to catch shit for this I know.

@robwaters8848 Год назад

A built 4g63 is capable of insane power and an AWD 300zx would be sick af. Although honestly I'd prefer a SR in the 300zx with the AWD setup.

@christopheralexanderperezj9824 Год назад

I think, maybe a good swap its a vq 30 from a nissan 400z, v6 twin turbo for me its a good combination

@mavricxx Год назад

I'd like to see the original engine put back together but upgraded to twin turbo but if you want to engine swap. I'd LOVE a Coyote swap!

@gixxerdrake Год назад

This car just reminds me of the beginning of throtl but not even that per say. It reminds me of how a lot of us watching kinda start with a car. Not all of us can start with a fresh car. Love this 300sx and can’t wait for these videos. I would love to see a oem+ build.

@williamking9200 Год назад

That wide body kit will set it off, I use to own a 96 300zx 5spd and they are timeless classics and fun but a widebody Rocket Bunny theme with a RB26 AWD conversation would be sick..

@timeshift2528 Год назад

The drivetrain should be a VG30DETT in my opinion. I would even say keep the twin turbochargers.

@YoBoyNero Год назад

Nightmare that’s all I gotta say

Buddy had a pretty clean one with a 1J

@VeilSideZ32 Год назад

By perfect you mean ruining the 50/50 balance of the weight, cutting the radiator support, making the car nose heavy and spending 20k to make the same power than just building a TT VG or NA-TT that can make up to 800whp on stock internals? Ah yes perfect swap

@cochinito83 Год назад

I had 2 300zx and I totally understand the hassle working on a VG engine. One of my Z has a vacuum leak so that was a nightmare. I wanted to do an engine swap to either RB, SR, or a V8. But saddly one Z got stolen and the other I had to sell it. So lets see what engine you guys decide to use and use it as a guide if one day i win the lottery to get another Z

@spont24 Год назад

Did you ever take care of the vacuum leak?

@cochinito83 Год назад

@@spont24 yup after I gave up I took it with a mechanic. It took him 3 days to find the leak that was below the driver side throttle body. While he was getting to the hose where the leak was he has to replace 3 other hoses because they were dry and cracked when he was taking them off. So yeah... Love the 300ZX just wished the engine wasn't such a hassle to work on

@ItstheJunit Год назад

I had an 85' and I loved it and there was one big single turbo black one running around the internet for a while pretty cool. These were always a headache to work on but swapping rb, sr, or 2j is been done a bit but always turns out good and there will probably be a lot of engine swap kits out there to make your life easier. If you were going unique and spend some money you could check wheelbase and try to work in a 5cyl audi swap but drivetrain might be an issue. My vote is definitely to keep it rwd and go for something that sounds good while being easier to work on.

@SWaGz_2RaW Год назад

Gonna be a sick outcome... Love the music by the way, the vibes are IMMACULATE

@samuelnegron6764 Год назад

I would say RB swap but the price is crazy. Single turbo SR20 in a zx would be crazy though.

@mrotani2530 Год назад

It’s been done by Mike Myke before, and there’s a lot of draw backs to the sr20 in this car

@denniscornejo9046 Год назад

Ive grew up around these cars, building them and driving them, if you keep the vg30 u can make big power, and for the turbos just move them forward to access them, can tuck the harness and move the fuse box, but if you throw out the vg idea, a rb26, or a vr38dett build would be really rad.

@thabnatics2881 Год назад

Please build the VG30 🙏. It's so common and distasteful to see all the endless engine swaps that have been done to these cars. My father has a fully forged vg30 and it's a monster , for conveniences just make custom boost pipes and relocate the engine harnesses into the underbody to make the engine a lot more accessible. Stoked for this build and would love to see a twinz body kit.

@epicnature3658 Год назад

Those 2+2’s never came with a T.T. motor here in the states. The JDM did. I’d slap a built VG30DETT in that one. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out…

@JoshuaTek Год назад

In the Very beginning of the video, at 1:59, that Blue "Jumper" wire is actually the Main Battery Fuse, and is exactly as shown how it is supposed to be. Every 300zx I've personally bought (4) have been like this and that's how you buy them from the dealership (also worked at multiple Nissan Dealers)

I'd like see you either do one of the following engine swaps. A. Make the car similar to a 200zr which was rb20det powered z from the 80s. But in your version being 300zx you make it rb30/25 engine. B. Grab a Ford Ecoboost 4cyl from a Mustang and get the engine power output to 300kw of power with mods

@thesamaffliction1572 Год назад

My head says Rotary like 13b or an RB25/26. I think SRs work well but Jimmy nailed that. I guess also, a rotary is something different that as a parts store you could use to show off products not very well advertised on the channel before.

Like I said in the last video, bringing a nice car and transforming it is one thing, but going back to your roots and transforming junkers I think is the better route for Throttl. And seeing this 300Z being transformed to a beauty is going to be much more rewarding. As for the engine, I would say to keep the VG or dropping a RB26 motor. I really hope you guys find more junkers to transform in the future.
