Hi all-

New here and I’ll have lots of questions, but I’m experienced enough in motorsports that I hope they’ll not be dumb ones.

Here’s the first:

Just bought an S13 with an SR20 in anticipation of drifting. I have access to a rust-free Southern US 1984 Z31 300ZX 5-speed Turbo. Is there anything useful to me on that Z31? Brakes? Gearbox? 5-lugs? Diff?

Thanks all. More soon.

no, except maybe the turbo itself, it’s a small-ish t3 ~.50 a/r but better than the average t2x

Really? I see people asking about those gearboxes. And surely the R200 diff will work?
