no way to justify putting a turd like a VG30DETT into an S2000.

Gotcha, but it’s still an older (junk) motor, going into a semi decent car. Save it for your Z cars :lol

yeah great. ive had one it was in my maxima… great engine i tell you, great!.. i wouldnt go as far as reliable, and when things break they arent cheap either. i like nissan, but the VG30 wouldnt my first or 2nd choice engine for a custom conversion. if i got it for free with the tranny and an r230 diff with it, sure thing, id use it, but i wouldnt pay for it
