ZFreak's RB26DETT Z32 300zx build...

[HondaLuver83]

The original Z car.
1971 240z w/2.8 swap, dual carbs and cammed.

I would love to have an RB26 in my car....

Nice Lookin' Z!!!!


I'd love to have my RB26 sitting in my car instead of on an engine stand in my garage! hehe... I'm just waiting now for my headgasket to come in from Japan then I can get down to business!!!

 

[ZFreak]

Update today..... I have the new crossmember and front sway bar installed...you can see how much clearance is needed now:
Oh, and here's the pics from today...



Old crossmember removed..

Old crossmember on top...modified on bottom.

You can now see the amount of space required for the oil pan to clear.... New sway bar and Crossmember installed..

Finally have all 4 wheels on the ground!!!! I can roll her out into the driveway and clean the engine bay! **yay** (You can see a few of my old license plates on my wall... FAST4EN (Fast foreign [car]), ZFREAK, and 1BAD240 (on one of my old SR swapped 240's)

Your car is jaw dropping. Makes the new Z's look like the sh*t I took this morning.

Ridiculously sweet motor swap, can't wait to see how it turns out. Keep it up, you're a madman!

And to you and your Z I hereby dedicate my 1000th post!

LOL, awesome! Thanks guys!

When the headgasket shows up, I'll have more pics when it's back together!

 

[ZFreak]

Well, I finally got a FEDEX tracking number for my headgasket...should be here Tuesday and I can put things back together a week from now.....then IN GOES THE ENGINE! (just to weld the mounts up anyway..heh)


Turbo manifold showed up (I have to get the wastegate modified to a V-band), as did some AN fittings.... also you see all the gaskets about to go on the engine.

Yeah.... It make me happy in pants.
