Hello from USA! I am working on a VH45 Z32 swap. Here are a few pictures of my progress!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the car is at the body shop right now. I'm about 13 months into this project right now.. It would be going faster if I wasn't making swap parts for other people along the way! Hope you all enjoy!

Hello, and welcome to the forum, nice progress with your Zed

Afternoon Eric. Order coming your way in a couple of months (just a reminder not to trade on here without permission).

Thanks sir! Also thank you Lexx for introducing me to this forum. I won't be making any trades on this site.

Welcome to the forum/club Eric and your 300zx is looking good:thumbup1: when do you think it will be finished?

Thanks Gary! Well she is at the body shop getting the panels fitted and then paint. So I'm thinking another 2-3 months of work on that. Then I need to finish the intake manifold, start the headers, all the wiring. Maybe next spring? I'm in no rush... taking my time and doing it right the first time!

Good luck to you :clover: and keep us updated on the build :yes:

I'm dreading doing the wiring on mine.

I have the pin and wire colour excel file but it's still gonna be a bitch.

The 3 diff conversion how tos I've found are hosted on Megaupload which no longer exists.

If you have any of them Eric could you email me them? (Esp that one that's hosted on Scribd)

I'm going to need all the luck I can get! Where can I start a build thread?

 

I have one of the conversion files, but I haven't even opened it since I've started my build lol. I've pretty much threw it out the window and proceeded to build it how I want. There's some good starter info in it tho, i'll email it to you mate. You can get the OEM extractors to fit by the way, just need to shim up my mounts a tad. Guy in Australia did it. I'll be making my own long tubes.

Yeah, I read the thread where he used the VH headers.

There's a place local to me I'll be getting custom headers made as well as a full exhaust.

I'll be using 304 stainless flanges, that way I don't have to worry about them every rusting!

Nice project and welcome. Where are you from? Saw what looked like a PA licence plate on the back of one of the cars in your album. Don't remember seeing your car over on 3ZC?

I've seen this build thread on 3zc I think, vh is a nice swap. Wish it was more viable over here.

304 will still rust 316 is much better at not rusting.

You can start a build thread in this section.

You might be thinking of creamyZ32's VH build thread.

I do have a build thread over on 3zc http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=196339

 

That's from the very start of the build. Thanks Gary

Nah I recognise the body, roof spoiler and flares.

Hmmmmm V8 Zed.....:drool:

 

Welcome to the club Eric; and thanks for sharing pics of your progress. I look forward to seeing the finished article...
