This stupid idea popped up in my head.

I doubt anyone would make a z32 a drift car though, they are just not meant for it. An aircraft carrier has better turning angle. But I think an RB Z32 would be pretty cool. Oh, and don't ruin a nissan with toyota junk.

No i dont see it "manifesting" either, I did a little research just to see some people say "its a super hard swap" but how? past some wiring, custom mounting and custom shaft, wtf is so hard about it? It seems like a great swap to me, the picture above clearly shows the end product looking 10 times easier to work on. This car obviously wouldn't be a handling queen, i would never build a fagtastic "drift car" so scratch that idea, I think as far as cruising, some highway fun and a little 1/4 mile, this car would be the tits.

RB's look to have a median price of $1700/2200 for the 5spd. not really pricey.
RB25
Motor/tranny mounting
driveshaft
wiring, im sure taylor could pull this off, there no way I'd ever attempt this shit.
???
profit.

but seriously, it cant be that hard. Decent single setup, supporting mods = WIN.

i think the problem comes in when you try to make it all fit.
z32 engine bays are the shittiest cramped things on the planet, so take that, add a motor that isnt a whole lot narrower, and make it twice as long, and i can see it being a headache.

mounting radiator, intercooler, piping all that shit has to be a headache.
its not hard if you have time, but i can see it being expensive to pay to have done.

i thought about a vq z32 for a little, make it like a 2010 300zx, full restoration with new motor. wouldnt be faster, but it would be neat

This is the point. efficient running swap, legit susp with spring rates to accommodate, 3.7 gear, non gay wheels. cruiser for sure.

I can live with a Z32, just not a VG.
