VG30DETT swan into a S13 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Nissan 240ZX · 03-22-2002, 11:33 AM

Sorry, that should of read      swap     not swan.

Has anyone ever seen or done this before? I need some feed back on which rear end and/or gear ratio to use.
From research, I know that the motor will fit with some fabricated motor and tranny mounts.
What I need to know is how does the car handle? If not too good, what can be done to correct it.
Also does any one know exactly how much stock HP the Jap.spec. VG30DETT has at the wheels?

Anyone ever did business with DaPerformance?

Sorry, I know it's a lot of questions ,but these are things I need to research before I start production on my sleeper 240ZX.

Thank you.

I was looking thru some websites and i THOUGHT i saw something on a VG30DETT in an s13...
It was owned by an American solider stationed in Japan.
but yeah, it didn't fit that great, he had to mold it in.
