    vg30dett in a 240sx

    Hey guys I know this isn't a Honda but I thought I would share it. I have been working on this for a while. it's a97 240sx with a 91 vg30dett swap. it has a z32 diff and z32 30mm aluminum brakes. it's mounted and wired up but still has some work left to go. oil pan needs welded before first start. As far as we know we are the only ones to do this swap in a s14 and keep the stock twin turbo setup.

      Does MO do any kind of inspections? In TX it's illegal to put an engine that is older into a newer chassis.

      Pretty badass though. Is it a purpose built drifter?

        I think It illegal in every state. Missouri is very lax on inspections. I think stl is a little stricter. Here in Springfield it's a joke, I meet a guy at a McDonald's parking lot to get all mine. no sniffer for us.

                  Sure Mo does inspections. Tires, brakes, ball joints, cat, windshield & lights. The average mechanic here wouldn’t know what he has looking at even if he did pop the hood. Even if you took a 2008 S2000 and put a 1950s small block in it no one would say anything even if they did know. Most simply don’t know and the ones that do don’t care.


                  That’s going to be awesome when you get it done! Right here in Springfield. I have to see this thing when it’s done.

                    So right. Can you say boost and LOTS of torque?

                    My roommate had a RHD Fairlady TT. Yeah. That was fun.

                        ... Why not Roadrunner instead?

                          Thanks for all the positive comments. the owner of the car is Matt Fowler. (fiznowler). There is a lot of reasons we used a vg30dett. Back in the late 80's Nissan built a s-chassis with a vg30e for 2 years. It was called a 200sx SEV6 (87-88). This car was special to America only. This car we built was some what of a attempt to recreate Nissan's old idea. We wanted to create a monster of a car with all American issued oem parts. So far we have only used oem parts besides the mounts on the subframe. The drive shaft will also be a custom one piece. We are hoping to make over 300whp on 10 psi, stock engine, stock tune, full exhaust from turbo back, fmic w/ nitrous spray bar, oil cooler kit and a vlsd to help with some grip. photo shoot absolutely. I have a 85 200sx. both cars should be done about the same time and we want to get some pics when they are done. My s12 has his old ka24 swap.

                            Here is a few update pics of us rerouting the wire harness. We had to extend some wires, add a 10 amp fuse, and 2 relays. Thankfully the relay block had 2 empty slots. The oil pan is going to a shop to be welded up and having return bungs welded in so a first start should be soon. I have some wiring left to do still. I haven't done any testing on it yet. Everything is plug and play no hard wiring. looks like a mess now but when it's all back in a loom it should clean up well.

                              Wiring is scary lol. Glad I'm not the one doing that!
