Well Ive been getting very bored lately and im trying to find a new plan out a new project.

Previous owned

1993 Z32 TT - Well it was my fathers and I was like 15 at the time, I got to drove it but when I hit 16 pops sold the car thinking I was going to crash it. ( im 28 now btw )

My Rides that Ive built and owned.

1993 FD3 RX7 TT ( kinda of a Hand me Down my cousin ) I spent way to much on this car while I had the Altima on boost at the same time. (gas was much cheaper in 1998-2001 ,thank god)

1994 U13 Altima KA-T , made 373 whp without n2o ( car was built in 1999-2000 , but got stolen in 2000 )

1992 S13 Coupe / S15 Front end./SR20 Red top (Put toghter in 3 months and sold it for a little profit ) - Never had the chances to drive it.

2001 A33 Maxima with slight mods (for sale)

2006 A34 Maxima , Working project but keeping it classy.

http://www.putfile.com/dohboi1o1/images/33258 <~few pics of the cars minus the 240

2006 Titan soon to be trade in 2007 for a M45.

1995 S14 240sx with a SR20DET ( mostly stock internals) blacktop T25, Dyno made 243whp at 21psi (maxing out the turbo) (for sale soon)

Its very hard to find me a M30 so I was looking around autotrader and found a decent price on a J30.

I read http://infinitij30.com/ some useful info.

My question is ( and I saw the thread with the TT swap )

Has anyone done a VQ35DE swap as of now ? I know its going to be hard find a feedback on this.( I was thinking of doing a Z32 Swap VQ35 )If the Z and J30 share the same frame than I think I could be possiable using a 350z motor instead of the FWD VQs everyone is using in the s13-s14 bodys.

2nd Question is , Ive search google all over for Body / Lip kit for the J30. Someone here must have a link to either a Japan kits or know of something. If its from Asia , all I need is a link.. I can try and located the kit thru my family in Asia. But I want to see what options are out there for the J30.

Im just toying with these facts for now. If the lip kits look half decent and the motor have a slight chances I might consider this my 07 project.

I was a mechanic at Nissan when I was younger so I have some mechanic skills but lack of knowledge of the J30s. I do this as a hobby to kill time. Plus I need to get back into something fast....

My KA-T Altima was lovely, the 240sx SR lacks torque. my VQ30 Maxima was decent. but my VQ35 has a nicer powerband.

My cousin also does alot of the RB swaps down here in South FL and Ive been in pleanty of rides/and help installed a few.

Again I wouldnt mind finding me a M30 Hardtop or a J30 if they have nice lip kits. I gotta have the show and go cause I want to look purdy when I pass by.

I was leaning towards building another S13 coupe but the drifting scene has blown up too much for me to think about building another one.

Well Sorry to make it long I guess its my intro cause I finally register instead of lurking around.

I appericate any feedbacks , comments and answers. Thank you in Advance- NiZMo

Welcome to NICO!

You could probably do a VQ swap, it would probably fit fine.... you could also do a V8 swap (VH45DE), the VH41 was available in japan in the J30, but the US VH41 in the 97-01 Q45 was different than the VH41 that went in the J30...
