240sx to 240z parts swap - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So I just picked up a 240sx with a SR20 that I'm planning in the future to use as a donor car for a 240z.

My goal is to tune the motor in the 240sx and suspension components and bring over to the Z one I find a non running one and get it thru paint and body.

Now when swapping the motor people do two things:

1. get a custom fabbed crossmember (McKinney Motorsports), trans mount, and drive shaft.

2. Buy custom engine mounts and use the stock cross member.

Now my goal is the bring the entire front suspension from the SX (knuckles, hubs, LCA, tension bracket, and if possible power steering rack) to the Z.

Does anyone know if the McKinney Motorsports Crossmember includes the mount points for the LCA and will the 240sx LCA fit within these mounts?

Or If the 240sx LCA's with fit within the Z factory cross member?
