You mean like how the dude said two stupid fucking statements and then was like "well do me a favor now that I'm done shitting in your thread?"

Yes, this website has been shoved up my ass since 04 and every new idiot member is like a dick hair. inching it's way in my hole.

I never knew z32 could look this cool.

Also, sr20 is a great idea (not sarcasm)

iStayBroke

Renews my interest in the Z32 chassis.

s12 drifter what the heck are you talking about?????

OP this is badass. never seen an sr powered z32... i kinda skimmed the thread and didnt see your power goals.. whatcha looking into the 400s? i mean you're going to need some power to make up for the 2 cylinders you don't have anymore

SlowZ32

I really like this and curious to see how it is. I saw someone doing this i forget where but they liked it. I don't understand why there are some people hating on it, especially the 300zxclub. It's your car not theirs.. I bet you're going to have so much more room in the engine bay! I dred working on my vg -______- Good luck, can't wait to see it finished!

Edit: btw i think your z looks legit as fuck

I'm not a fan of red cars,

But GOD DAMM!! I love the way you have yours setup, it's nice and low, great fitment, not rat bagged missle status.
Your doing a good job, keep it up, and I look forward to updates for a finished product and maybe even a video of it running

Kudos!!

Hey guys, thanks for all the kind words!
Got the intercooler piping finished yesterday. Then Polished it up to make it look nice and shiny.



Then got to mocking up the rest of the exhaust. Which I think it coming out pretty cool! Tucking it up super high.

Sr20 z32 seems like an excellent idea to me. Now you can actually work on sit.
Should be easy to break into the 350 range and that'll be a massive increase from a vg/NA.

That's pretty cool!
How hard was fabbing the mounts?
Looks like you'll have a blast after she's tuned and ready.. just a turbo upgrade from fun!

I basically had to make him a new cross member and due to his ride height I might have to do something with the swaybar but not %100 on that yet.

Tranny crossmember? or the front subframe...?

This is a very awesome build! So much win. I had a na z32 and wanted to do this sooo bad but ended up with a sr20 mx83 Before it came out a bit later.
To s12drifter shut ur mouth the z doesn't weigh 3500lbs, my mx83 was 3450 would burn through 2nd and into 3rd on a near stock s13 blacktop with minor bolt ons and boost (massive 195 tires though . He doesn't seem to be building a drag car does he...? It's his car if he wants a sohc d15 non vtec in it who cares? Have you ever done a vg30dett swap? I did what a [email protected] show that was and never again.

Kallixtos

Regardless of what anyone says, its different and unique. I like me some z32 SR! Great build man!

chris_240sx

Cool looking car
Cool looking build

You should record your measurements for that cross member and mounts. I'm sure you could make and sell them pretty easily. Judging from the comments on here there is interest in this swap. If I had a Z32 with a blown motor I'd look into a SR or VQ personally.

A STOCK z31 weighs 3,051 pounds a Z32! weighs in around 3,300 pounds and if you add a person to that (you need a driver) it comes out to 3,500ish

VG30DETT is a pig you need to use your head to do things over complicated but for a good reason. you dont need to build a drag car to drift or track or do whatever the fuck you want, it's about being smart and using your head.

different??? yes sure unique? in a bad way? yes.

How is it bad, this SR will drastically reduce his weight, will bring the car closer to a balanced 50:50 weight ratio and it will be a hall of a lot easier to work on, not to mention parts will be cheaper and less time will be spent working on it.

On top of that the polar moment of the car will also be reduced.

S12 Drifter

it was a 50/50 with the vg30 you dumbass -.-

the VG30 is more reliable then the SR any day of the week. if you wanna be a pussy and you dont know how to work on a VG30 then thats fine, not many people do, it actually takes brains to work on a VG30... thats alright stick to your SR20.

VG30 is WAY more drive-able then a SR. he could have gone VK, VH even VQ and their all better then a SR.

Dude you need to take whatever got shoved up your anal cavity and sit down, maybe take a physics class or something educational and rationalize this i mean it's the internet you are getting upset over something that isn't even yours. for the record the OP is doing the swap because he wanted it that is all the reasoning behind his build.

I own and been working on Z32's since 2004 I've worked with Specialty Z, Performance Motorsport, Real Auto Dynamics, and Flawless Rides. I can tell you there is Absolutely no downside to doing this swap for anything other than a Drag car. in lamest terms Adding HP will make you faster in a straight line, Loosing weight will make you faster all around. Franklin's car had a N/A VG with 260K miles. He is taking about 150-200lbs off the front end of his car, and adding 50-75hp before tuning, and about 150whp after tuning. there is absolutely no downfall to the SR20 swap in his car.

your kidding on the weight ratio right?

the VG will still have too high of a polar moment, but I have a feeling that you don't even know what the polar moment of a car is.

VG30: at the track something goes wrong, your packing up.

SR20: something goes wrong, fix at the track and your back racing/drifting
