Dude this guy put a 383 GM STROKER in a 300zx Shell! WTF?

[izmyttz]

Well it has 450hp...but damn that defeats the purpose of having an import.........right?

IF all you care about is having a fast-ish car with carbs (EWWW) then thats all good, but it defies all sort of principles.. Why not just have a camaro and have a crappy car to go with a crappy motor? sorta completes the package.

Except for the hole in the hood ........ sweet.

Except for the hole in the hood ........ sweet.

The rims look good

[Slipstream]

I like it. But, yeah, if you're gonna put a hole in the hood you might as well throw on a blower. Looks nice and clean though.

[nsrZ32]

gayer than richard simmons

[redtop91]

Hahaha I knew Jerry was going to say that. Minus the hood thing I think it's fvcking sweet. Domestic V8's kick as$ despite the hate they receive.

[Canyoncarver]

Besides the hole in the hood, the other drawback that I just noticed is the iron block and heads....... should be aluminum.

[mtcookson]

Yeah, if it were an LS1 I'd have a little more respect... but not that. May be fast... but... its just wrong.

[NSR_s30]

Ghey

[NSR240sxe]

^ werd

wtf

[AZhitman]

Iron block makes it weaksauce.

Now, the local LS1 Z32 that's for sale is a different story - Hubba hubba.

[Felipe]

Hurry quick get a broom.... theres some thing on the hood!

[freakonaleash1187]

Why? The VG is a completely capable motor. Oh well, I guess I'm just a Z purist.

[300zx22]

totally agree with ya!! i dont like it cross breeding domestic with import just dont work.

[Nick240sx]

What a terrible wax job!

[96SoftTop]

Except for the hole in the hood ........ sweet.

Yeah. That's what I was thinking. Ewwww on the air cleaner sticking out like an afterthought. Oh, and:

"100,S OF HOURS WERE PUT INTO DEVELOPMENT AND FABRICATION...", yet look at all the silicon spooge around the intake gaskets...

Or the masking tap over the end of the AC line that runs to nowhere. Or the flat black spray paint over spray on the AC pressure port. or, or, or....its a stupid idea lol

[redtop91]

I'm confused how people are actually arguing that 450 NA horses is a bad thing?

[mahchu07]

I think the swap is pretty sweet.

Not to sound like a d!ck or nothing but I'd like to know what all these Z purists would say to the guy if he rolled into a meet and they saw the thing in person???

[nsrZ32]

I'd give him respect for being original (sort of original anyway) but I'd also give him crap

[redtop91]

What about when he smokes you?

Edit: JK don't kill me Jerry

[nsrZ32]

^ well that's a given since my car really only makes like 25whp lol

[gpelite]

hahaha

dude this guys needs some stlying help, but its a genuinely ok idea if he had a a shell and motor sitting around. I would do it and make some cash if thats all I had laying around. There are plenty of ways to hide the carbs under some customs hood mounts i.e. the Z31 turbo scoop

A z with a stroker is still one more Z on the road.... thats all I care about

[frosti108]

feckin SWEEEET !!!

but yea the airfilter out of the hood is completely horrible.

but otherwise that **** is sick as feck
