VG30DET swap pic

Thought this was a cool swap. Not my car. Found this pic of a 180sx with the VG30DET.

Hmmm. A VG30DET, aren't those custom and hella rare in a 240? There is one guy on the boards that has a 240 with a VG30DET from down under. Dusky700 I beleive. Check his car out, he has info on the thread on how to do the swap. Lots of custom work though. That does look sexy though front midship layout = sex on the roads.

it is in an Aussie 180sx... i found it on a forum. I think its was either... www.silviansw.com or www.nissansilvia.com

I just searched "onevia" and his car came up in the for sale section. Check it out. Some gold coupe with the 180sx front end... funny how we wanna do the S13 front ends, and they wanna swap on the 180sx fron end.

Yep, it's the same guy that is on this board. But he doesn't frequent much any more.

Who cares if it's heavy. it's still a helluva lot lighter than the Z32 it was in. And man, would that car haul ***. He's pushing around 20 psi from what I remember.
