I honestly would not bother putting the RB26DETT into a 350z. The stock motor is more than sufficient, and if you really want turbo then turbo the stock motor. You would get more power than with a stock RB and it would be less of a hassle.

As for resale value I can't help you there. I just know that I would avoid a 350z with a swapped motor. One of the reasons I love these cars is because of the power they make as a n/a motor.

Honestly I think it would be a waste of time to swap the motors.

thanks!!! i thought that the car would be awesome, and was not thinking of practicality. plus $20,000 motor swap can build the VQ pretty well i guess. thanks.
