ok guys the swap is basically under way. i would like to know if there is anyone out there who has a set or can make a set of Engine mounts for the VH45 to fit into my 300zx. I would like to have to modify the crossmember as little as possible if any at all. so if you do have a set or wouldnt mind to make one. shoot me an email please at [email protected] with a price

im also looking for an adapter plate to fit my 5spd 300zx transmission onto the VH45. I know Mazworks makes one but 450+ seems real high for just an adapter plate. I do not know if elwesso is still making them or how much he is/was selling them for. But if anyone has one or knows of a good deal please also let me know

Everyone has just made there own. Superhatch may be able to do it, but not sure if he wants to...

I didn't mod my crossmember at all, but I did go with a rear sump. If you want a front sump then you will need to mod the crossmember to suit and take a bit out of the sump too.

I don't know if Wes is still making his plates. I got one of the original ones way back when. It seems to work ok and was about a third the price of the mazworx one and required no machining, but needed a flywheel spacer and a extended slave arm.

The mazworx one is very good though.

oh yes i will most definitive be making it a rear sump setup. yea i have seen maany people make thier own thats why i was asking if someone wouldnt mind making another set. as for mazwork 450+ is still to high for liking. for that much i will just make my own. but thanks for the fast reply.
