Re: Engine swaps-what do you like?and where would you put it
- Honda K24W7, K20C0 or R18A2 in CR-Z
- Subaru FA20F in BRZ
If I win a lot of money:
- all-electric Corvette
- 3-phase grid connection into house (to charge Corvette)

Just as it's something a tiny bit different from the usual 3S-GE Corolla swaps.

And here's the build thread. Holy balls, that's right up my alley, if I even knew the first thing about restoring cars...

I wonder how that would compare with a 370Z. Although the 2GR-FSE from the IS 350/GS 350/Mark X would be more appropriate, seeing as it's designed to be installed longitudinally.
Now I'm curious as to whether the 2UR-GSE (IS F, RC F) would fit into the 86 engine bay.

Re: Engine swaps-what do you like?and where would you put it
It was a 4.9L DOHC Maserati V8 with factory Weber carbs. Now I know what you're thinking: Thats just madness. why not something more common like a LSx motor or a 5L ford? well those motors are just BORING. Nobody wants to see another boring 240Z with an LS motor in it.. thats just too mainstream..
Also owning a Datsun with an engine that usually is found in rare cars that sell for upwards to $100,000 would have been quite satisfying.
Also OP, why not an RB motor in a 240Z?.. 2JZ is blasphemy to Nissan enthusiasts.
