These are just questions about the car I like to know about.
-First question: is can you clean or wash the engine and engine bay? If you can how?
-2 question: so I got a NA and I want to know how much is it to swap the engine for a tt? or is it better of just buying a 300zx tt version ? If I do swap the engine do I have swap or change wires too?
-3 question: so I want to get headers for my 300zx, I was wondering how hard is it to change the old ones.
-4 question: what other mods can I do to it?
That's all the questions I can think of right now. Don't tell me that I shouldn't waste my money on an NA version , I just want to have more fun and take this car to the track.

Been eyeballing headers as well as I dont thnk ill be man enough to do a TT swap. Seems like the only logical way to get the headers on with the least headache would be to pull the motor and install outside the car. I guess then one might as well just go for a swap at that point but if you could find a shop or someone who can pull and re install your motor cheaply then youre good. Ive seen other writeups about install on car but they do look somewhat intimidating but the process is similar as you have to basically un install all the accessories to get clearance.

The best way is with a front cut where you can swap parts over to the good car when the motor's out and with a guide (the cut) as to where it all goes.
Otherwise you will spend lots of time trying to figure out where this or that goes...
