                There was a terrible mishap at the laundromat. I dropped off my clothes and went out for some lunch. And when i got back, someone took my pants and i ended up with all girls pants instead!

                The swap wasnt as complicated as others i have done. Alot of the stuff lined up really well. Just had to make motor mounts, tranny mount, shifter and driveshaft. and then you have an operational sr in the car.
                The suspension setup is all Tanabe. The coilovers are Tanabe DD. It works awesome.
                Theres nothing really i would do differently. There are more things on the car i want to work on as usual. But maybe not do such a custom cooling system, for in case something happens, you can swap a stock radiator.
                The sr setup was about 300lbs less than the vq motor and tranny.
                Just to make it so the car can come apart easily for maintence. Also you need a shorter final drive. stock z is 3.5, i run a skyline diff housing with a 4.0. Which is still too tall.
                Just make sure you get some good coilovers. That is all you need to have a solid drifting 350z. If you want more than that, its a big step. You need to get new rims and tires, all the rear arms, radiator, bucket seat, turbo setup, and then lighten it up as much as you can and put a cage in it.

                  • Buttonwillow was cool. Everyone got good practice in. We found a couple weak spots on the cars and will have them all ready for D1. The course is fun and let us practice some new techniques. I was entering turn 1 after the straightaway at 120mph! Top of 4th gear!

                        The s15 will not be ready. Still waiting on some of the parts. So I will be in the z once again.

                                I'd say stick with the VQ motor. It is a good motor it just needs to be built properly. There are people pushing over 400whp now safely with stock internals. I only did the swap because it was so early on that there wasnt even a turbo kit available yet, and not enough aftermarket parts available yet. We had the SR laying around and it was a fun and easy swap to do. The RB is a great motor and will provide lots of power. But it is very long and will put even more front end weight on the car. The VQ gives a lot more torque than an SR setup for sure.
