Anyone put a 350z motor and drive into 280zx?

Wondering if this has been done, and if so, how easy?

Help appreciated. Thanks.

The VQ35DE swap starts at the bottom of page three. Lots of custom fabbing and I still have to get the NATS removed from the ECU!!

Subaru Sti engine / Porsche trans swapped Half shafts. Worlds first mid engined Z Sweetness. Cuddo's never would of tried a modern engine swap. Unless it was a LS.
