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?

Questions:

How do you know it will fit?
What research did you do?
Who/what helped you perform this research?

I for one would like to know how a VG30DET on RWD platform can fit into a VQ30DE FWD platform without $15 to $20 THOUSAND dollars.

If you can enlighten us, please do. Thanks!

Were you beaten like a red-headed step-child when you were younger? It seems you have bit of arrogance about the way you post back to people. Go back and read a bunch of your posts. Someone who is new to the site would see no problem in your post, but I can see straight through it. I don't understand your attitude.

I'm sorry you're bitter and so depressed over his comments, but that is no reason to be so mean to me.

Where's G-ride95Max with a shoulder to cry on when you need him?

3 10 millemeter bolts, a roll of duct tape, and a tube of liquid gasket sealent. If needed, Coke® cans to form a downpipe.
