i got a 94 j30 and me and a friend had the great idea to make a sleeper and twin turbo this thing. i know its the same motor as the 300zx and i was planning on building the motor with 300zx parts (eagle rods, wiseco pistons, etc) and i was wondering some opinions?

unfortunately the TT and NA motors have differences making it very difficult to build the NA motor into a TT...among some i can name off the top of my head are the heads being different...the compression on the turbo motor is lower so that would involve redoing the internals...and i remember hearing something about oil squirters...its possible just more difficult than just swapping a TT motor in...as far as the manual swap you can use the Z32 5speed
