This weekend I happened to be walking around a local car show,when I saw a 300z.The car was cool,but what caught my eye was the engine code on the hood.VG30det a turbo VG? Obviously it wont fit in a front drive max with the 300z intake manifold.But would the short block fit.If so is there any internal differences that would make this motor better for boosting than a stock VG out of a max.I dont know Im just rambling.

 

the entire VG-T engine swap(upper manifold and all) has been done to a few 3rd gens in the past...try the search for more info-->

Hmm..

 

Hey mike that MONSTER 92SE has been under construction since 92 HUH? When are we gonna see some progress buddy!

 

Whenever I feel like causing more controversy.

 

No turbo, just the block and heads and is there any difference.Thats what I was suggesting.Would it be any better for supercharging or nitrous? The tubbo thing has been done and its a little too involved for me.But swapping the short block for a stronger unit and hooking up some nos wuold be a lot less hassle.

 

to me swapping out the bottom end is more hassle than installing the turbo..

 

1. the z31 heads flow worse than the 3rd gen Maxs
2. just get JE to make some custom 9:1 forged pistons for your current block and run all the NOS you want(not really but you get me)

3. search, search, search (the best of the 3 rules)

 

F turbo a good VG can take a 150 shot every once in a while

 

riiiiiiiiiiight.

 

A VG30ET will fit. A VG30DET will not. It is DOHC and to wide for our cars.
