370z LS Swap
 

I am wondering how hard do you guys think it will be to swap an LS motor into our Z's Whether it be an LS1 , LS2, or LS7 I have seen it done on a solstice and Sky but I haven't really ran across Any Z's before. Has there maybe been a 350z That's done this that anyone knows of? Please give me any info you got? Cause I like the Idea of a 370z hybrid lol :tup:

theres a few ls2 350z's. i'm sure its a pain but its possible.



i don't believe its been done on the 370z yet though.

Honestly it shouldnt be TOO bad. The LS engines are fairly compact.

Where are you getting your donor 370Z?

i feel like it would be logical if you had bought a salvage 370z or came into an ls motor for free or cheap.

Or if you just had boatloads of cash.

If I had the money I'd be in an LS7 370Z right now.

or if you are a prince in saudi arabia, you call nissan and chevrolet and tell them to make you an ls7 370z and they do it. and then you put it in your garage with a bugatti veyron, some weird *** car called a 'lamborghini', mclaren f1, 5 porsches, 3 corvettes, and a camel.

Lol no donor 370z I just plan on keeping this car forever so I was just having one of those planning ahead moments for when ever I finish running this motor to the ground after sometime and I mean sometime like not anytime soon I just thought It would be a cool thread to get everyone's two cents...

i'd say go for it in like a few years, if you get your hands on a ls motor that is out of a totalled car or something and isn't damaged.

That's What I plan on doing and it should not be too hard to find there alot of ppl with vette's and A lot of them don't know how to drive lol Do you guys think it will be a real tight squeeze to the point where a pair of turbo's won't fit?

You won't need turbos with an LSX. :icon17:

yea thats for sure. If you want to do an engine swap because you want more power, you've got it with the LSX. if you want to do an engine swap because you want more power via Turbo charger, you should swap to an engine that comes with a turbo from the factory and is designed to take the boost. the ls2 in the 350z is already something thats rather frightening to drive i imagine.

oh man I know......lmao only thing is I'm not balling like that I'm gonna have to go another route like the man mentioned before pickin something out of a totaled vette, camaro or Gto as long as engine and tranny are fine lol

And if you wanted more power you could just cam it.

intresting thread... i have thought of the same thing, but i'm leaning more towards the turbo's now.
