Again, thanks for the interest and the enthusiasm!

Oh! Someone asked about the wheels on the 240SX- they are Konig wheels. I don't know if they make that style anymore.

I'll have enough sets ready at the end of the month. I have collected the names via e-mail of those who have expressed willingness to purchase the kit when it debuts. All you have to do is to write me. I'm selling them to those who pay for them.

It only takes me 1-2 days to put the kit together, depending on my workload.

Reno-

I'm glad that you posted a picture of one of the JDM VG30DETTs because the scrap yards treat these just like any other engine. They cut everything. I would like to stress to get a half-cut or better yet, a USDM VG30DETT that hasn't had the intake piping cut or anything else cut, for that matter. AND it's important to include MAF sensor, SMICs (I haven't designed the FMIC yet), wiring and ECU.

You better save one for me.... One of my contractors does dirt track racing and has a shop. I might be able to use his shop to do my swap

Copy all!

Matt-

I responded to your e-mail. The VQ series is the next in line for me to do next year as a viable swap option for S13 and S14 (as soon as I get an S14). We do a lot of work for VQ engines in Maxima and in 350Z for customers around here (gotta pay the bills)

VQ35DE with 6MT- It would definitely be a giant killer in the S13. Even in the 350Z, that thing has more torque and pull and makes me think that in the S13, we're gonna have to beefen up stress areas even more. One of our customers came back with his dynosheet after we did a total rebuild on his VQ35DE in his 350Z. 456 bhp

I've got three more kits to complete in between working on other cars and an SR build that I'm heavily involved with right now. I'll have 6 kits ready to go at the end of the month

Now that I am an advertiser with NICO, the price per kit is $1,500.00 plus shipping. Shipping is approx $125.00 with insurance to USA. If you are a NICO member, I'll ship it for free to the USA. If you live outside the USA, I'll knock $100 off the purchase price, but I can't ship for free. BUT you gotta say you are a NICO club member with your handle.

Help me get Dale Davis back for stealing Jaymee's car!! / VG30DETT into 1989 240SX

At a later date, I'll start to offer the kit in basic form, but until then, I am just offering the master kit.

So it's straight $1500 for us then workign on gettign a palce to put my car. As soon as my 22ft box truck sells I'll be ordering... Anyway you could get me measurement of the driveshaft? So I can have one made. I'll do a step by step documentary of the install with plenty of pics uploaded each night.... Shouldn't take more than 2 weeks....

Tomorrow evening, I'm going to put the VG240 up on the lift and take it apart and take more pics for those who want to see what the work underneath looks like. I'll post them here and I'll also give the dimensions on the shaft.

I'll be doing this in order to get the step-by-step tutorial/instructions together.

If you are coming here, you will want to have your car here You will see all kinds of cars and you will be kicking yourself everyday wishing you had brought your car if you don't.

One word of advice, keep the car as stock as possible because the Bahraini Traffic office will intentionally try to find things to fail your car for if it looks like it is a race car. If your car is modified, return it to stock condition, make sure you have factory installed equipment, like reclining buckets (no full bucket allowed in the inspection process) and a back seat with all interior molding. If you have a cage, take it out. Wheels cannot extend out past the fender line and the height must be stock. After you pass the inspection and get the tags, you can do all the mods you want.

If you are intending to use any aftermarket stuff you currently have on your car, take it off now and get them ready for shipment. You haver the time to do it right and don't wait until the last minute because you won't have time. During your household goods shipment, put all your go-fast stuff in boxes. make sure the items are clean, gas and oil free and non-hazardous. If you don't, the movers won't touch it. You say March, you will want to ship your car and your household goods as soon as you have the orders in hand. It will take three months for your car to get here. If you are only gonna be here a year, then you will want to maximize your enjoyment with your car here. There are not that many of us in Bahrain that have the S13 and there is only one S14.

As far as doing a VG30DETT install on your car, of course I can do the swap. The cost will be $7,000.00, and that will include all parts and labor. As for helping out, thanks for the offer, but I have two other guys who depend on the work to get paid. Please understand. You will get a quality end product, and as a "werks" car, I will badge it as part of the Mayhem series.

Just my 2cents. Nice job. I do have some buddies that I roll with that have some 240SXs. I'm going to have to turn them on to this thread.

That setup does look sweet though. Don't get me wrong, I am a complete Nissan head, I just wish they would come up with some serious displacement that is small and fairly modular for a reasonable price out of the box, not to mention not getting killed on true factory parts.

I'm an inch away from moving to France so I can get a job at the Nissan Corp facility in Trappes (I’ve seen job postings that I qualify for with my degree) just so I can slap the moron who thinks 1 CV axel for my 240 is worth $600 bran new, and every nut and bolt are worth $40 each.

Thanks for the frank comments, greatgonzer. I was hoping to get some input from the 300ZX crowd.

The car we have put together does run like a beast, albeit, improvements can be made. My main focus was to ensure that the chassis and the hard points in this kit could stand up to the beating, and they do. I did mention earlier in the threads to do the obvious things that you mentioned before putting the motor in. Honestly, I know some folks will be stretched thin just with the purchase price of the kit and with the full swap, but nonetheless, the areas you addressed were addressed, and it's like "pay me now or pay me later". Everybody will gamble and hope they have stuff that will hold up from the swap. When you said you bought your swap for $2500, was that for a front clip? I am telling everybody that the front clip would be most economical instead of piecing things from here and there. The oil filter relocator kit can be put together for the 300ZX guys. The reason I put it in for the swap kit is due to the location of the stock oil filter point now residing over the custom subframe. There's no way to get around the oil filter relocator kit in the 240SX with VG. As was mentioned in a thread after you, the stock fuel tank in the 240sx is all the way aft and to the right of the car. Hence, nowhere to go with dual exhaust, at the moment. The only way around that is to ditch the OEM fuel tank and plumb in an internal fuel cell in the trunk area. Not too many people would be keen on that unless they were going for a track use vehicle. The idea is playing around in my head, but that won't be until next year. I was actually thinking of dual twin N1 coming down the center and exiting out through the center of the rear. As for why we went with dual BOV- we just wanted to. I've messed around with recirculating systems for SR and it comes down to some like them and some don't. If you have a design or something I can read, I'm all for looking at it and seeing how to incorporate it in the 240SX with VG. I appreciate anybody you know to come check out this post. Again, thanks for the candidness and we hope to see you in a 240SX with VG or a 300ZX with SR. I've seen the Z32 in Japan with SR20DET swaps. The advantage is in the weight reduction and the room gained and parts support for SR in Japan is more than VG. Other than that, I don't see SR making more power than VG.
