.1987 hard body D21

[nariex]

hello First of all my congratulations for this site it´s very complete

My question is this Can the nissan Hard Body Frame take the VG30DEtt power??? . I mean is it posible to have a 300Hp nissan D21? I know that The D21 has been sold stock with the VG30 but I dont know if The Twin turbo will fit down the hood.

My intentions are simple I want to swap the 300zx engine and transmission(manual 5 Speed) In my Hard bodyAre the engine and trasmision mounts the same??? If I have To relocate Them Will it be hard to do?Could I change The rear Suspension and differential for put in Z's one

Thank´s from the start but I'm lost and in Spain no Body knows what I'm Talking about even the nissan dealer dont know whats a D21 Can you believe it????

My D21 has The SD25 engine and its the 2WD kingcab version And my Family Brought it from Canada

Lot of Work But I'm disposed to do it an To spend the money

Sorry for My english but I've forgot mostly all Thankyou

I had a '95 2WD with a KA24E. I, too wanted to do the VG30DETT swap and thus did some research on it. The biggest problem is the space from the firewall to the radiator support. You's have to either elongate the radiator support or get rid of it altogether. Side to side it will fit but the motor mounts and transmission mounts will have to be fabricated. They are not close enough to each other for you to just make something work by using spacers and there are no kits out there as this is not a common swap (if anybody has successfully done it yet). The fact that the trucks have a full frame is going to be tricky as well but if you REALLY want it to happen you can make a tubular frame and relocate the strut towers and motor mounts.

All in all you are talking about a 3-6 month job and over $5k. Let me know if I can be of any help.

The Radiator problem I think I can fix it Taking out The the fan and putting itelectrical by The out side of The Radiator But The tubular frame Its impossible cause Laws In Spain Do not Alow mods in the frames. does the Harbody trans fit in the VG30DEtt? and What about the height I Want to Drop it about 4 inchs With new Lower control arms will it be possible????

Thanks a lot

Now LOWERING the truck is my specialty

I got my D21 down to about 20mm off the ground with only $30 worth of hardware.Ask me how to do that another time but for now I can tell you that the transmission for the VG30DETT will only fit that and any other VG series engine. You may be able to get the VG transmission and swap the bell housings from your stock transmission. That is how I plan on putting an S15 6-speed transmission on my KA24DE.

But again, I don't know for sure.-
