Dave1647545494 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 is that a 280 or a 260? sweet car either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Beast Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I vote LS1, but either way that is going to be sweet as hell. What color will it be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 lets pull the drivetrain from the docs car.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I vote rb25, just to respect the Nissan legacy. If not then the 2jz swap is the better. Everone seems to be on the ls1 swap bandwagon these days, plus you have an lsx car already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I vote LS1, but either way that is going to be sweet as hell. What color will it be? Gonna be black on black. Imagine that same car/look/stance but with an all black paint scheme and some black wheels with a deep polished lip. I have acouple leads on some shells right now. I am goin to acouple junk yards this weekend to hopefully find my shortblock now. If the lsx motor goes in it, it will be a stock short block with good heads and a cam and prolly some sort of blower on it. Also gonna try to manage a t-56 in there but I dunno. I gotta see whats goin to fit up in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lsx motors is what I know and I like to work on my own shit, so it would be easy for me to fix if something were to break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotarded1647545491 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 There is already a lsx powered 240z under construction here in Columbus. I think you will probably be seeing it next summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWill Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I've been looking at this swap for a few months, definitely a cool project.

Trjackson Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Lsx motors is what I know and I like to work on my own shit, so it would be easy for me to fix if something were to break. That is all the more reason to go with a different powerplant and drivetrain. You know the lsx, do you know the 2jz? Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
