Hey,

Long time since I posted on here. But anyhow let me tell you about my friend Jay. Jay currently has a 87" Z31 with a 85" VG30E in it now that he pulled from his totalled 85". Anyway he has a 92" VG30DETT that he is gonna rebuild and mod the hell out of then he is gonna swap it into his 87". I know this has to have been done before so here's my question. What do we need to do before we do this swap I'm talking all the parts and labor required to do all this and anything he need to do to the body itself. His 87" is a Turbo body but no turbo motor in it at the moment. Any inquires would be great thanks,

i could swear i answered this question in a different post.

motor mounts. ecu. custom exhuast, manifolds, custom intake piping, custom intercooler piping, custom radiator piping, all the electronics, ecu, wiring harness, adapt the ac, adapt the ps...etc.

lots of labor.lots of custom fabrication

better hope its not an automatic, the Z32 ecu will probably not sync with the z31 tcu at all. ( totally different ECu systems)
