How can you make this even cheaper ?
Do the wiring your self
Make your own mounts
Buy pipes to route the coolant instead of a radiator
You can use a non-adjustable fpr off of the VQ30 maxima.
excellent~ thanks~
few questions though.. do i need to use a radiator fit for KA24 or VQ35?
i know someone that can get me a good deal on a Koyo Radiator so do I get the one thats meant for the s13 KA24?

As for the ECU..is there a minimum requirement or specific ECU I need to use? I'm assuming I can't just grab an old 350z ECU and go with that, right?

I don't mind paying the money to get this done right. Just want to try to pass CA smog with the VQ swap..without going overboard on the parts.
