engine swap- australia
hi all,
Ok, I live in perth, western aust. and own a 280zx 2+2 '83.
I have been looking to do an engine swap.. heard 280zxt swap is easiest and cheapest (tight budget) but are none or handful in Australia.
next i was thinking of an RB swap, maybe an RB20DET or RB25DET
has anyone done this with a zx and what sort of price range am I looking at?
thanks for any help,
Sean

SPEAKING OF AUSTRALIA i was jsut thinking.. since you guys in austraila didnt get the 280ZX turbo 2 seater and we didnt get the skyline GTR... i was wonderin if there was anyone out there in austraila willing to do a over seas trade for a 280ZX turbo for a RB26dett engine and GTS tranny... i dont know... its just a thought... let me know if anyonw out there is willing to do this with me... and we can work out the shipping..

jjohnson, the swap is HARD custom mounts and im not sure if it would clear the firewall ? i know it does in a 240z
15k is because you WONT be able to pic up a full RB26DETT and RB25DET gb for under 9-10k 5,000 for other misc bits like wiring exhaust intercooler piping bov
icice9, the 2seater is a rarity in aus yes but i wouldnt swap a rb26dett and rb25det gb for one though
