L-Spec working on a 1UZFE Conversion Deal how much would you pay? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Nissan_Alex · 03-10-2014, 07:03 PM

As the title says we are currently putting a 1uzfe with a 6 speed gearbox in my drift car, and also a customers car.

all the parts are currently being machined as I type this post.

Just want to know if it is worth either selling the parts or would you guys be interested in a drop your car off and pick up with 1UZFE installed deal?

Just wanna tell you im very interested.. I even have an sr20det s13 and would want to sell my sr20det to someone or to you guys to fund for a shop to do the swap even with a ka trans to make it easier and cheaper

Dudes. Super cool. You guys definitely would have a sweet niche market for mounts, adapter, powersteering lines, air intake system, headers. Wiring would be huge too. Its not hard to do, but for people who don't understand how it works... my god. I think it's honestly the only reason why the 1uz isnt done as often.

If you could make better conversion parts while being affordable I think there could be a good market on it. You could do swaps for customers locally, while also offering swap parts available online for the DIY'ers.

I definitely wouldn't mind paying for a plug 'n play wiring harness for my swap as it would be a giant headache for me. Sourcing out a decent priced factory 1uz wiring harness around here is a task on its own.

Having more 1uz swap parts coming from a reliable company to back up customers with any problems/questions is a +1 by me.

Great Poll!!! Finally getting more interest. If you guys need any help i've been doing these swaps on 240's here in cali. Currently undergoing several as we speak. They're really reliable motors and definitely fun to drive in a s-chassis.

He's the 1uz god in socal ^^ Sergio is the shit

I also can vouch for sezio (sergio) ahah

I've already seen him complete 1uz swaps in his own s14 as well as a customer's s13 coupe which is very near to completion!

this is your guy to go to!
