Today I started the motor swap on my friends 240z. It's the same car that we wrapped in matte black vinyl a few months ago. I took all the parts off of my s13 and sold the car, and my friend bought my sr20det motor and transmission. The sr20det will be installed into his 240z, and I think it will be VERY fast since the car is so small and light weight.

Today I removed the old engine -

Removed the hood, grill, radiator, and disconnected everything from the motor.


Attached the cherry picker, and disconnected the motor mounts, trans mounts, exhaust, and started to slowly pull it out.

Next we plan on cleaning and painting the engine bay, stitch welding the engine bay, and then installing the custom motor mounts. The sr20det will then be installed along with the custom driveshaft. We'll then need to make custom intercooler piping and figure out the radiator and wiring.

More pictures will come as the project continues!
