Hello I am wondering if anyone could source me a crossmember, motor mounts, and oil pan from a 200 or 300zr from japan, its the japan version of the U.S. Z31 300zx, I have searched all over the net and cant find anything, if anyone knows anyone in japan or knows someone that can source these parts for me...it would be greatly appreciated...I will pay the person that finds these parts for me...thanks

I smell an RB swap into a 240Z.

200ZR's are rare special edition Z31's that had RB20's BTW.

Not at the moment, and I don't think we will... the market is too small.

very true, you dont see many modded z31's on the road these days, thats why I bought it...I am going to go with Tokico Illuminas with eibach springs, and some custom strut bars and Motorsports auto Sway Bars, and a MSA Master Bushing kit...that should be good for suspension right...its my daily driver BTW

no not in the states, over in japan the z31 is called 200zr (84-86) 300zr (87-89), they came with red top, top mounted IC'd rb20det's, they are a little less powered then the skyline rb20's I believe, if someone can correct me on that, I am not sure...I am putting a skyline RB20 in my Z31, the red top rb20 is very rare and I am having complications finding one, so I just decided to go with the skyline 20...

The redtops weren't as good anyhow, but the top mount IC with the proper 200zr hood = pwn.
