ok, so the engine in my 93 runs crappy but the 92 "parts" car runs great. i am going to swap VEs and before i put the crappy engine in the 92 i don't want to just fix it, i want to know what all i should do to it before i put it back in, performance-wise. the swap itself is no big deal, i just want to know what go-fast stuff i should do before i put it in the other car.

 

UDP, flywheel, port the manifold, TB, and install a TB spacer.

replace water pump, exhaust studs and gaskets, and both crank seals while you have the engine out of the car.

 

+ knock sensor and VTCs

 

+ main journal bearings, connecting rod bearings, piston rings, timing chains

 

+ timing chain tensioners and guides

 

+ all gaskets

 

also most importantly..



+ time, patience and money

 

+ 300zx 10.5:1 Pistons



I'll sell you a set

 

Hey, you didn't do that to my engine when you had it out!

I would settle it up, if you fix my VTCs, though

 

mmm i love my VTC, very noticeable when they kick in

 

im with MrGone on that one

 

thanks. since i don't need to do anything with it anytime soon, i'll have time for all the work ahead of me!
