You shouldnt have any issues building a bad ass motor for $4000. LSvtec, ls tranny...turbo....easily done for $4000.

Re: I need advice.
 

dont get a300zx have a buddy that has 1 its a tt two and let me tell you something its a pain in the assto work on....you almost have to pull the motor to get to the damn spark plugs....deff would not get 1 fix up the b16 and boost it like other people said......

Re: I need advice.
 

thats exadgerated, spark plugs are easy, removed the coils and valence tube.

Re: I need advice.
 

if he thinks thats hard, he should deal with the underside of the intake manifold with the vac and water lines :X

Re: I need advice.
 

psh, who needs those waterlines anyway, i deleted them, and deleted egr, i could pull the manifold in 20 minutes. Its with anything though, after you work on it for a while you understand it. Id say the maro looks to be more difficult, but i can't judge yet, i'll find out when i put headers on

Re: I need advice.
 

if it wasn't my car I would have gotten rid of most of that ----, but it wasn't :-\

Re: I need advice.
 

LS motor/tranny from a yard $300
TT rods $300
used pistons $300
bearings $100
machine shop to assemble that $400
________________________________

$1400 in a bottom end that will be solid

put another $800 into getting your head cleaned up, put some GSR cams in it, better intake mani/throttle body maybe...get your LSvtec lines...

then you have $2000 to build your turbo stuff.

you should be able to build a bad ass car for $4000. Even if you went with a stock bottom end, 270-300hp isnt uncommon on bottom ends anymore...just gotta find the right person to tune it.

---- a stupid ass 300z. They are very unimpressive for what they are. twin turbos, the fucker weighs almost 2 tons. It needs a pair of turbos...hell, where im from, that car wouldnt be allowed across some bridges. :-\ :-X

For $4k ur only gonna find a tt Z32 WITH problems...Those cars in good shape are still considered RELATIVELY valuable...Put the 4k into fixing the problems with the hatch you already have...And I wouldn't be SO deadset on swapping in a B series...If you haven't noticed, there have been SEVERAL D series engines making SERIOUS power on this site lately...I PERSONALLY would just as soon have a BUILT DOHC nonVtec D series as I would a B series...
