300zxTT engine swap help

[troyp47000]

So im swaping my engine in my 95 300zxtt. Just putting in the same engine. Vg30dett. Anyone have any tips or specific problems or things i should be aware of? Any help would be appreciated.

Have patience. =)

Remove the EGR. Remove the CC.

If you are installing new turbos, I'd be tempted to try and pressurize them to 5psi and make sure there are no leaks around the snap-ring.

I basicaly blew an egr tube and had to pull the engine peice by peice. Now im like the hell with it i'll throw a crate engine and build the original.
So i already have the egr kit. Also NEW timing belt, water pump, all belts and bearings and a bunch of other parts nib.

Ive just never put swapped an engine and dont know the little general or car specific things you do when swapping. Someone already told me i need a special tool to align the clutch plate to the engine. Things like that. Thats what i need to know. Thanks for the help.

The alignment tool usually comes with the clutch. There are a ton of how-to on tt.net or 300zxclub for installing the engine. I can't think of anything that is a huge issue. Stabbing the transmission is a massive PITA.

Before you disconnect the drive shaft, make sure you mark it so that you install it the same way when you put it back on.

It's straight forward, make sure everything is disconnected before you go pulling it. Otherwise you could pull connectors, tear lines, etc. Be patient, double check your work. Nothing too complicated, just time consuming.

I just bolted the jdm down the other day. Just waiting till i have a day off then plugin in all the connectors.
I cant find my pics of the pass side throttle cable where its mounted by the battery. If anyone can send a pic it would help speed up the process.
I did mark the drive shaft.
I just hope when i try to turn it over the ecu doesnt spaz out cause of all the stuff missing. Like egr and wastegate accuators.

Do you have any of the old motor parts to sell? Have cash and want to build a tt for my 2+2 project.just looking for stock tt parts have turbos n manifolds.need engine block with crank rods pistons etc n heads mostly

[troyp47000]

let me check on whati need to keep. I plan on building the original block, but im not sure if i have to use the original crank. I know i dont need the pistons or internals of the heads.
