-Weight Reduction, just rip extra interior parts out 300zx's weigh about 3900lbs.
-Larger Intake manifold through street concepts (scpower.com)
-Larger Cams/ Adj Cam gears.
Flash the Ecu or get a Standalone and you should be in about the 400hp range.

Ok you dug up a 1 year 2 month old thread....

next... after you spend 10Gs on something that you could have done for 5Gs and made 450BHP... Hmm...

Next the weight of the Z32 is NOT 3900lbs. Even with a fat chick in it.

3900lbs is Altima weight.

Z32 is around 3300-3500 depending on model.

its been a looooong time, no sign of doing the swap yet, but the car has come a long way









this was an onroad rally kinda thing we did like 3 weeks ago

Looks good, but looks like its almost time for a new front end. Your front bumper is a little beat up. What exhaust is that, doesnt look like the HKS, Stillen?

[skln09]

thanks!!...yes, I'm getting a '99 JDM front bumper next month, exhaust is custom made in one piece, mufflers are also custom made at the same local shop, you can se it better in this pic:

i like the radio. but ya there are a few things you can do. lightweight pulleys. down pipe, exhuast, performance air intake, ect. just check ebay for an idea. just do some research. its prolly already been said on here. havent read through the whole thing. you can get your n/a running about the 300hp of a tt. but the price would be very close to that of a swap.

Anyboduy know what these the n/a cars put down to the wheels stock??

[Hodo]

Well Bjdm,

seeing as the NA is only 222BHP. Most dynos I have seen of mostly stock NAs have been around 170RWHP.

i think its more than that, but it also depends on the mileage.

"-Individual throttle bodies 55mm which gives you about a 330mm throttle body overall. (Universal Kit)"


No way in hell.

lets do some math. one 55mm TB is apx 2375sqmm in area.

2375 x 2 = 4750sqmm in total area.

a 78mm TB is apx 4778sqmm

a 330mm TB is apx 85530sqmm.

so two 55mm Tbs is liek one 78mm Tb.

Just get the strongest internals you can find. have them installed with like a 200 shot of nitrous or something fun lol

Brokeas**** has a stickied thread about giving more power to your Z (even n/a). But as far as an intake goes im pretty much stuck between a JWT pop charger and the injen intake. btw my car is also an n/a. any suggestions?

PD: my engine has 97k on the odo

edit: I found a jdm front clip for $2,200, plus $550 to ship it to Katy, Texas where I have family, we are talking $2,750, then I have to pay shipment to Costa Rica and I have no idea how to get a price on that, and then I have to pay taxes for the thing whent it enters the country, then I have to get the custom drive shaft that goes for $285 and the exhaust that I dont know for how much it runs, so to summarize:

JDM front clip.....$2750
Driveshaft...........$285
Exhaust..............$500
Total................$3535 + shipping and taxes= around $4500

I paid $6000 for the car, so we are looking at maybe $11500 for a 2+2 TT (labor included, it is VERY cheap down hear and I will put many hours on it also but cannot do it myself) I am sure I can sell the VG30DE with the tranny and get some cash back......most important thing; it would be the only NA to TT swap in the country!!...of course this is a long term project haha

dude i'm doing it diferent i can help you!!! don't spent so much money

Dont even know what you are talking about this thread died some year ago. There is a website that you could check your vin number with the Nissan Z32 data base and it would tell you your production numbers. How many with that engine, interiour, and colour package.

[Andrewhuffman]

Lol, why would you need a new DS with the TT swap?

Idiot!
