300ZX List?

It seems that way.
Member dubv has a damaged 300ZX Convertible and he believes it had a full TT swap before it was put out of commission. Convertible Z’s didn’t come stock TT and not many people do the swap up here but I’m hoping this may be a lucky one.
If not I have some other options. I’ll probably be buying a full front JDM TT clip for around $2500 if the convertible doesn’t work out.

Do you have any links to good deals?
I was thinking just buying the engine/tranny alone, but then that’s $1500. Then I’d have to get ECU $100, harness $300, intercoolers $500, piping $300, etc and sourcing everything will be very time consuming. That’s already over $2700 not including shipping of everything.

hahaha, after typing it out now I realize that I’ve been stupid for planning it. I should’ve seen it from the start. JDM TT front clip all the way. I even get to see the correct mileage on the odometer of the clip so I know what the engine’s done, short of thrashing/racing/towing.

I’d probably price/part hunting from most of the same places you are. Were you planning on just doing a stock swap with stock plumbing, wiring and intercoolers. If your going to do the swap I would suggest a new wiring harness as well as upgrading the i/c and piping.

Keep us up to date with the progress,
