K20 swaped z32 300zx

Would it be possible to swap a k20z3 into a 91 300zx na manual 2+0 i have been curious if it would work for some time now.

Anything is possible with enough skill and money the question is why do it? This isn't a 2700lb lightweight. the K20, regardless of how boosted would not produce a positive effect in the Z32 which tip the scales at 3100 dry (and that's the lightest one). What is it with people wanting to stick K20s in everything now, its like the new LS swap, can it be done? yes, should it? welllll. . .

Agreed, it's like spandex on fat chicks...they CAN do it, but why?

Pardon the broken record, but ditto to NL and DC above. The low-torque K20 is a dramatic step backwards even from the NA motor and would make the car a dog. For the effort, time and money, a TT swap would reap you much better benefits right off the bat. I understand the Honda thing - I had a GSR waaaaay back in the day. It was a blast to drive, but it did leave quite a bit to be desired regarding torque.
