I know the engine from the 300ZX turbo will fit right into may max. I've been over this with my mechanic. I now have the chance to get one of these engines at a great price. What else will I need to get this done right?

 

your mechanic is an idiot because we have had this discussion 285,582,457 times. IT WON'T WORK, DROP IT. First rule of engine swaps is don't talk about engine swaps.

 

Don't listen to him Go and drop that bad boy into the maxima. If Sean Glazer can drop a 4G63 into a Mirage. You can do it too.

 

i say do it and be the first person with a 300 zx turbo engine in a 4th Gen Maxima and when you are about $15,000 lighter pocketed ... you will be the man

 

Find a new mechanic.


Oh yeah... and go delete the four other repeat posts.

 

shhh, it's your rule your breaking. although it will be funny to see some sucker try to make it fit. Let's do a comparo, think you can screw a virgin with a horse? maybe but it will fit tight and something is bound to break

 

you can do anything with money my friend.. everyone has a price

 

Screw the 300ZX motor... I say dump a Skyline motor in there.

 

ya if your gonna dream might as well dream BIG.

 

hey that's my line! And the correct dream big engine is not the skyline engine but the 454 Caddy engine w/ twin turbos and 1000 shot of nos.

 

hey well it seems this DUMB @ss topic comes up once a week now. it's getting worse. it used to be once i month. this needs to be put in the maxfacts. 300ZX TT motor in a 4th gen = NO WAY STUPID.

 

Done yet?

 

HAHAHAH


First rule about fart club
1. DONT talk about fart club

 

Darn you kids

 

Your mechanics ***. Because thats where you're going to shove the engine when he tells you (after hes taken your maxi apart) that it WONT FIT.

 

I had some other pressing financial issues come up since then. But, I will have this done by the end of the year. My mechanic is already helping me source the parts.

 

Sorry to hear about that. I hope you get everything worked out fine.

Question. May I ask why you've decided to go with the VG30DETT in your 99 Max instead of a VQ35DE for an engine swap? It just6 makes more sense to me to go that route. If you were swapping an engine into a 3rd gen Max I could easily see going with the VG30. You do know that the VQ which you have and the VG are two totally different engines (not related at all).

Would be cool if you got it done. But some reasoning may help us understand.

 

I heard those Alabama mechanic's can pull of some wicked shiet.
