Project 300zx Engine Reveal!

I bought this project Z32 300zx as a shell a few month ago and have been trying to decide on a motor to swap into it. I knew for a fact I did not want to put the original VG30 into it because of the headache they are to work on. But I recently came across a Nissan 240sx in the junkyard and decided to use the low milage motor from it! I have personally never seen this swap done, so I'm excited to build something unique!

Here are the videos I referenced:

That first freaking engine shot transition was so clean it was trippy.

I respect the focus on other projects and stuff, i can imagine after so much working on the 240 it can be draining and could burn you out, i can imagine there are also people complaining about not seeing 240 progress, but screw'em you keep doing you man, i can watch anything you put out Mike, thank you for the content and for your self

The first import I ever seen in real life was a fairlady 2+2 & it was absolutely so sick and brought me to the import world and I have never left that was 10 yrs ago !!!

Love how informative you are man im rebuilding a single cam ka out of a d21 right now and watching this video helped me feel better about the vacuum lines there are so many on the damn diagram and I don’t wanna use half of them 😂😂

[caddy-co]

You and Kevin from @junkyarddigs need to do a collab episode where you go get an old American car running

[eduardorafael]

I'm a fan of your channel! here in Brazil we don't have that variety of cars like there!! super sports cars or jdm cars. These junkyards that visit for me are a dream haha. One day I want to move to your country!!

A few friends and I have been contemplating doing a kat in a z ourselves here in Florida, what we were thinking was to use the whole excessive adapter kit and the sr-z mounts, fuel lines just flip on the bottom of the car, actually was gonna use a hardbody flywheel and retain a vg clutch, stock driveshaft and driveshaft mount, and I literally was underneath a sr20 swapped z the other day, for mounts all they did was basically extend the pedestal towards the engine

If you have to drill in a tight area, you can get a right angle drill or there are right angle attachments you can get for a regular drill that are really handy. Stubby drill bits can also help. I use a right-angle attachment from Milwaukee on a regular drill that takes hex bits and with a collection of stubby bits, that has gotten me out of a few tight spots (pun totally intended)!

Glad you went over the vacuum lines... I need to sort all that out on my KA still as well. Good weather is just around the corner finally... time to really get after this stuff!

I always get excited when I see that you post a video it’s the greatest thing to sit down and have a cuppa coffee. Watch my favorite YouTuber and get my day started. Keep up the good work never disappointed.

the 300zx is my dream car, so happy to see someone enjoy it!

[windows]

I always loved the 300zxs. I wish you the best and can't wait to watch it move under its own weight!

[hotside-kei]

The JGTC A80 Supra had a 3sgte in it so you’re not wrong for the KA swap!

[lucy]

Excited for this Z32 build; one of my favorite cars. I like that you are using a KA24 engine; Im curious to see how it performs in the car. I assume it will help lighten and balance the car's weight distribution.

Thanks for sharing!

Always looking forward to the next video
