Found a few J30s

Will the shifter fall into place where the current one is.....? Clutch master cy, where to put that??? IF the J30 engine compartment is anything like the Qs, there really isnt much room for much of anything.......

I know we've discussed it before, but would quite a bit be involved to get a Z 5spd into a Q???

You will discover the answer when you read the previous discussions.

shifter will be in the correct place.

master cylinder will need to go in the wheel well, or a pedal box will need to be introduced into the cabin.

So in other words it could be a worthwhile swap......?

if youve got time and money and space,

and a thirst for 5 speed action,

well then, yes.

I was more/less comparing it to the Q..... Which seems pretty much impossible without oodles of custom work.......

The J was offered in Japan with a V8, now thagt would be an interesting swap

Id love to import one of those..... Who cares if the drivers side is on the wrong side.....! The mailman doesnt have a problem driving around like that.......

its been claimed, although I have only seen evidence of a single turbo setup so far, it could be done...
