  • Camron said I smack a girl on the first date so she dont be like like "camron why you hittin me" later on. When I bought my 03 CBR they told me to break it in hard if you want the bike to be a puncher, or break it soft in you want it more balanced...who knows.....?

  • I just bought it LOL winning!!!

  • Yea....I'm going to stick with my 98 TA with 06 C6 Corvette LS2 swap haha

  • *face palm* reving to 7k on a cold motor....

  • what a tool....or maybe the whole shed

  • nice build

  • WHered you get those plug covers???

  • thats probably not the exact first start their should be smoke from the oil on the first start. I wouldnt rev it like that though until it idles for a long time/a few days of light use.

  • please tell me why....if this is the first start up...why would you rev it that hard before it even had a sec of brake in? You seem to know what you are doing, but than again you made a stupid choice to rev your engine hard after rebuild. Come on man...everyone knows you let it sit and maybe alil rev...not ROOOOOOOM ROOOOOM !!!

  • why would u REV a REBUILD or SWAP motor??? no more bearings for u dude

  • how much did it cost you for everything

  • WOW  MAIN BARING STILL ALIVE

  • omg you pwnnnnnnn

  • That's more like 3-4k. He doesn't have an exhaust installed.

  • First startup cold and you revvvvv the fuck out of it?

  • dude what the hell, if u wer sleepin n suddenly woken up n told to run.. will you do ua best?? fuken idiot

  • @ChaxMAN1 I tell everyone the same thing! its just like yankin u out of bed and telling u to run right away without a chance to wake up haha.

  • your suppose to let the motor warm up and break in for a while before you start reving the shit out of it. DUMB AZZZ.

  • yes, salisbury....but this is an old video. factory ecm w/nats. look for harnesses on car-part com. there are large differences in model, package and opions so be sure before you buy.

  • @specdracing

    Couple questions do you need the IPDM? Where the keys, ecu and bcm all from the same vehicle or can the be mated to each other later? Did you have the MIL connected? Trying to figure out the minimum for a code free install. Thanks!

  • @specdracing Is this car for sale?

  • Salisbury?

  • I have the same setup in my s-13 (except I have a stock vq35) and then a shop I got some work at screwed everything up. Two questions, are you running an AEM? and do you know where I can find some information on either buying a new engine harness, or making one? pinouts and things like that. Thanks in advance.

  • كل شىء من نيسان حلو

  • How much did it cost or how much would something like this cost?

  • Idiots thats how you properly seat the rings. he should have let it idle a little longer but the best way to seat rings is a hard pull and a good engine break from redline down

  • @xXMaHaNxCoReXx actually to seat the rings there must be load on the engine. The engine should also be warmed up to operating temperature first. The proper way to seat rings is by putting load on the motor like making a few dyno pulls or taking it out on the freeway. So you both fail.

  • too bad its not a 350Z vq35 the engine in that car is a 3.0L nissan engine with a 350z upper intake manifold

  • @Mixmastabob4 dont judge by the valve covers if thats what u are doing. VQ30 and VQ35s valve covers are interchangeable. And no VQ30 has VTC like that car does, it would. Its a VQ35.

  • LoL new

  • Revving it cold on its first startup like that...fail.

  • Not the prettiest engine... but honestly I don't think he revved it to 7k, probably was just stating (rather vaguely) the redline or something.

  • yo that motor wont last u long

  • Yeah nice engine work but I'm sure hes got a nice foldgers can strapped to the back that pretty much ruins everything he just acomplished.

  • nice 240sx who did your wire harness im tryin to do that swap

  • Comment removed

  • Wow 300 NA HP in a 240sx is perfect

  • your car=fuckin awesome

  • That car is a beast, but you should definitely paint it red. The purple doesn't do much for it lol.

  • fucking BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i have a good question.. my 05 xterra has a 4.0l v6 (vq40de). i was wondering if you could perhaps put a 350z 6peed tranny, and other parts, interchange all the parts from a vq35?? could it work??

  • nope wouldnt work some little things might be interchangable but not much...

  • yes, all VQ bellhousings are the same. But it'll be a lot of work and the 5spd auto is a good tranny.

  • would you know if a VK56DE would fit in a Datsun Z chassis?

  • sure it will, lot datsun z with chevy v8 and i saw lot with vh45de q45 v8

  • how much was that to put in that 350z engine in?

  • nice swap vq's r almost like hondas j series

  • 2jz is the best engine, but not for the 240sx. Its harder to do than any of the others, a RB is nissan, wiring will be easier. 2jz and RB stock internals will handle around the same horsepower. They are both stout engines. I think it should be a hayabusa turbo engine anyway!

  • @moderns30 ur half right and half wrong the rb will fit easier cuz of the turbos bein on the factory side meanin u dont have to make a custom exhause but ur wrong about hte 2jz and rb engines bein able to handle the same hp the 2jz has been time and time again proven to handle over 800hp on stock internalls (with supporting mods) where as the rb motors need internall work to hold them together

  • dude you just rebuilt that engine and the first time yuo start it up you rev it to 7000rpm?? dude seriously

  • agreed

  • i agree as long as i work in performance shop you need to break it in for 1000 miles nicely :)

  • @Jbmudgeeboi

    at least he know how to buld it, cause doing this it won't be ling till he is doing it again

  • @Jbmudgeeboi The guy who taught me to build engines would take a fresh chevy small block and rev it to ten grand. Of course, he'd let the oil get in the engine first.

  • @spuy767 This of course would lead to additional future sales for him.

  • @Jbmudgeeboi lol hes letting the engine know right off the bat that it'll have a rough life.

  • @Jbmudgeeboi he'll find out if anything went wrong with the swap, that's for sure

  • @Jbmudgeeboi If u think thats 7k your a fucking idiot.

  • @Jbmudgeeboi if its a fresh build and he has used totalseal/gapless rings then high load is needed or the rings will smooth the hone out before the rings bed properly, Many variables when it comes to running in an engine. If it hadnt been started in a while (say after a build or sitting in a half cut) i would pull the cam covers off and drizzle oil all over to simulate recent running, put it back together asap and fire it up.

  • vq35de is good stock and preforms well and easier to get and find then the 2jz or any other engine problem is finding the 6 speed

  • I think the statement about the weight/ balance is over rated. unless your road racing or drifting so what. thats why they make aftermarket suspension. Its like every body with a 240 thinks there R going to compete in D1. IMO the best swap for the 240sx is the 2JZ. out of the box power huge aftermarklet support, available parts low cost as compared to vq35de/rb26/LS1 more power than most will need stock. NOT DOWNING THIS GUYS SWAP AT ALL. this looks very clean almost as if it could be stock GJ

  • @DVcustomZ

    I wasn't referring to weight like that, but yes, the weight will sit much further back, and will give you much better handling. No, its not going to matter to lots of people, but we are talking about engine swaps, meaning someone who wants more out of their car.

    I mostly meant you would probably shave at least 100 pounds off the car with a VQ compared to an RB or a 2JZ, if not more. And yes the 2JZ has a huge aftermarket, but the VQ aftermarket ain't to shabby either.

  • @Boba383 i agree with u there a big six in a 240sx is gonna be nose heavy and u gotta set it up well to stop it from understeering into corners....having a vq motor is logical because it produces as much (havnt researched this) torque as a 2jz yet its almost half the weight ^.^

  • the RB20 and RB25 is the best engine for the 240sx. Since you can get the gauges to work perfectly. Plus parts are cheap!

  • parts R not cheap being that they were never produced in this country. Used E-bay or forum parts R cheap but not new factory or upgraded ones. The RB20-25 is a cheap swap just helped my club member with his swap and a rb25 its simple but a 20 cant push more than 14 psi with stock turbo and maxes out at 400whp stock long block which is decent but with a 2Jz stock power is 100 over the 20 and 70 over the 25 with more after market support not to mention you can get parts from ADVANCE or AUTOZONE

  • Comment removed

  • best swap ive seen by far!!

    the rb swaps got kinda old time to go with the 3.5

  • ya and ummm, your ALL fuckin GAY too, faggots!!!

  • "OMG, 7K RPM, YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE IT BREAK OMG OMG OMG."

    It's not like he's ripping down the street at 7K WOT.

    He hit 7k for like all of a full second, if not less.

    But then again, YouTube commentary is never really smart.

  • ya just the thing to do to it on a fuckin cold start, straight to 7k-rpm, hope it blows, what a loser!!!

  • uhmm doesn't look that cold out...

  • i appreciate the work...but way to kill the new engine. and purple? really?

  • omg fucking sick!!!! what did u have to change to make that shit work??? plz message me back. im thinkin of buying a 240sx and doing a swap but idk what kinda motor to go with

  • RB26DETT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • thats a great way to keep a engine in tip top shape

  • i dont think id rev it like that on a cold new motor x.x

    beautiful though!

  • First dry, cold start after the swap/rebuild?

    Very smart. Remind me never to go to that shop.

  • Yeah i was shocked too

  • How else are you gonna set the rings.

  • Um.. let them get to temp! and put them under load

  • where did you get the motor mounts from man?? iwanna build one up too. plzzz reply man plzzzzz.....

  • probably built em

  • VERY NICE

  • high revs help right after first start up

  • who knows if its a brand new motor, prob meant first start since installation!

  • wut up specD gotta holla @ u came across a vq for 2500.00 motor still under warranty....

  • How difficult was the swap? Was it more complicated than a RB25DET swap? I'm looking to swap either an RB25DET, SR20DET (boring), or a VQ35 into my Kouki S14. But I don't want to have to fab up almost everything. Is there a kit that would simplify the swap? Sick ass car by the way!!

  • first start? at 7000 rpm waw lol

  • wow first start and rev the crap outta it, thats a great way to fuck it up good job!

  • Word.

  • Dude, forreal. I would be fucking heart broken.

  • ii thought you were supposed to wait until 5000 miles of easy driving was up to take it past like 4 grand haha not like 5 seconds after first start up and going to 7 grand.

  • you're right, this guy is foolish.

    Can't wait to see the video of the motor grenading haha

  • You both fail at knowing engines.

  • God damn that sounds beautiful!

  • Wow, just rebuilt, and hitting red line. lol it's called a break in period dude. haha

  • haha for real!!

  • sick!

  • wow I really like the simplicity of the engine bay, it's not messy like most others.

  • Wow, nice colour sounds mean!

  • nice job, what exhaust are you gonna be running? sslap on the 350 or G35 exhasut and really mess with ppls head ;)

  • should of put a vh45de cuase your front would be 100 pounds lighter

  • May I ask how,I thought that the VQ35DE had an aluminum block. If I'm correct that would mean even if the VK45DE was aluminum also like I think it is the VK is a liter larger meaning the rods,liner(made of iron usually),block, heads and other misc parts would be larger making a VK heavier than a VQ can someone correct me if this is not correct.

  • not really sure on that one someone on the form im on nico proved it, i have a 300zx na and i want this swap badly for one its rare and if i put a vk45 head on it ill get 400 hp na, and the front is gonna be 100 pounds lighter and plus the torque on it is gonna be wild, but in jgt the new gtr is useing nissans v8 racing engine cant rember witch but toyota is using the tundras engine in jgt also.

  • dude stay off of forums and do things yourself. Forums have alot of bullshit on them.

    Both engines are aluminum, the VH45 = 4.5L V8

    VQ35 = 3.5L V6

    Unless your talking about some other engine in which case disregaurd what Ive said

  • im talking about the vg30dett thats a heavy engine now if i replace it with the vh45 it will be 100 pounds lighter

  • You are correct.

    It would seem honda-tards are speaking stupid on the YouTube comments again.

  • LMAO You fool the VH45de is 500lbs the VQ35DE is 300 lbs LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • how much dos the vg30dett weight in on a 300zx a vh45 will make the 300zx 100 pounds light in front

  • yea i beleive the vg30 weighs i think 600lbs cause it's iron but atleast it can handle alot of power stock but any motor nissan builts are amazing

  • the VG30DETT is about 550lbs fully assembled. A VG30ET (SOHC single turbo) is about 380lbs.

  • great job man glad you love the engine.

  • Alot of you seem to think a car is only is a s fast as its power rating, but the nissan 240sx only weighs 1225 kg.

    So of you think a mini van can keep up.... anytime bitch ill show you how to "corner" a car. Something front wheel drive cars are shit for like a honda.

  • Sorry it depends on suspention and driver. Because FF can be fast around a track I remeber Super Street had an article on a Dude with an EG hatch that won there time attack event running the fastest time of the event beating out Evos,STIs,Vettes and all the other misc cars in attendance. This was done with a N/A B series, I want to say GSR motor he has since become sponsored by someone who gave him a K series. The mini van thing is true thought lol.

  • haha i acually crossed my fingers

  • great job! but really stupid to rev it cold and freshly rebuilted at 7000RPM... and he is proud of it! 7000RPM!!! wow nissan doctor!!

  • seriously a complete rebuild and then first crank 7grand? i would have putted around for a few tanks of gas before i thought about pushing it

  • is this easier than a rb26 swap?

  • right now gas has no competitor if ethanol comes to market then we will all see the price of gas go down or it wont sell also cars can run much higher compression on ethonal and ethanol has a cooler intake charge and burn hotter for more complete combustion ethanol is a more stable fuel less chance of preignition there are many benefits to ethanol you wouldnt like running 14 to 1 compression on pump gas ? I would

  • shut the fuck up nobody likes you

  • honda has a RWD you tard. the s2000 ring a bell?

  • and the nsx right?

    still wouldnt be caught dead driving a "sports car" with less torque and horsepower then a minivan (like a nissan quest lol)

  • lol

  • you are an idiot

    looking at 240sx vids you do realize they only had 140-155hp stock?

  • 240's in America were crap stock. I mean, they attained their infamous name from the huge engine bay that allows for everything from sr20's to 350clevelands to be dropped in 'em. The first one I saw that changed my mind on the cars was an LT1 swap at 600-ish whp. So I tend to think of them as a wild card to pull up next to, because you never know wtf you're going to be running against. Hell, Visionboy's got one in the works with a 2J, our shop's going LS6 in our little toy. 240's are no punk.

  • LOL S2000 and the NSX isnt? lol youre a fucking douche man!

  • that was for TheYungPimp

  • I was definitely kidding 100%...i hoped you coulda realized that lol. But no I drive an ecofriendly camry with nothing upgraded on it.

  • im sure it built oil pressure ina few seconds, my stock supra gets full pressure in about 3 seconds, plus he has to set the rings in, so the rev had a purpose.

  • sounds beautiful

  • yeaaahhh g fuking awesome!!!! im thinking of putting the vq35de in my skyline

  • your stupid the stock rb motor which ever one you have is better

  • im thinking of putting a sr20 in my gallardo

  • yeah and a ka-series in a e90 m3? wtf dude?

  • i already put a sr20 in my gallardo, but i took the turbos out cuz it was causing backpressure

  • for real!!!!?????

  • fo realioz

  • i wanna see video or pictures

  • your serious....?

  • you probably drive a civic

  • I've got this Mustang and I'm thinking of doing a FWD conversion and putting in a B16. N/A. K&N cone and that's it.

    XD!

  • Are you smoking crack!

  • No!

    I seriously am wanting someone to do up a muscle car, a heck of heavy one like a Cadillac but with a FWD conversion and a tiny tiny engine that you can not even see.

    I do not want to see this cause I think it would be cool or whatever. I just want it to exist so I can see it. It would be hi-larious.

  • No offense its all ready been done in Japan I want to say top Secret did it but I'm not sure anyway some shop in Japan put a VQ35 into an R32 with ITBs it was pretty nice I think the were running in a specific class. It was in I want to say Modified MAg a couple years back.

  • lol thats why alot of models such as BMW's M3 only allows you to rev up so far when engines cold and raises the rev limit to normal redline as the engines heats up to normal running temps. You can cause some damage especially on a brand new motor revving it up high when cold. Although it looks like he has been running it with coolant fill funnel so more then likely was warmed up at least I hope.

  • er.. build oil pressure?? Build some heat up before revving more like it.. oil pressure builds up in seconds on a modern engine like that.

  • woops i meant nismo heads

  • wow nice swap! can't wait to see future vids of your car. High comp FTW! I was looking into nismo competition headers, competiton crank, cams and their pulleys with forged pistons and rods as future mods for my G. Also what supporting mods must be needed for a built NA engine. I'm thinking better oil and fuel pump.

  • Nice swap man, need some dyno vids!

  • what's the compression ratio

  • way to let that thing build oil pressure before revving it up..

  • standard shift knob and every thing like that and 7000 rpems. and one essaaa twenty

  • how is the "rev up" motor different from the regular Z motors?

  • it is a built crate motor, more power

  • very good idea, too bad you riced it up with that cornball looking purple

  • This actually looks a lot more like a VQ30DE than a VQ35, or maybe you just used the VQ30 cylinder heads or valve covers? Should be fun anyway.

  • dunno how u can tell but i have seen plenty of VQ30's and 35's. Looks like the Z33 motor to me.

  • "ITS ALIVE"

  • Whats the hood gonna look liek ?? lol

  • Plexiglass!

    Why hide an engine with a paint job?

  • sounds very tough , bet it sounds way better in real life!

  • holy shit that sounds nice. very nice work

  • No Boost No Life...should have done a RB26...See you in the rearview, turtle.

  • So you do have the RB26. Did I bash you, NO. But I will now. Your motor is old with less displacement, and USED. Cylander pressure from 13:1 in a 3.5L is more than your 2.6L at 14 PSI of boost. Learn more about cars, then post back. Untill then, dont talk, it only makes you sound stupid.

  • oooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • haha, you told him!

  • no shit u have a 13.1 comp of corse ur gonna have higher cylinder press.. NA , TURBO is completly different.... bty have u seen any1 do a vq45 yet?

  • rb26...over a vq35??? bahahahahah i think he was serious... all hail vq

  • no the rb engine is far superior

    and it's not all about displacement

  • RB's are good, yes, but there is no replacement for displacement.

  • yeah there is it's called engineering

    and if needed theres always positive displacement (figure it out)

  • It all depends.

    Engineering only gets you so far.

  • Yeah funny positive displacement superchargers =P

    Thing is, engineering is important, so look at how much a stock RB26 weighs compared to a VQ35DE. Yes, turbos are a factor, and the strength of the VQ are factors, but both built for 500whp and the VQ35 will win based on size alone, and the fact it weighs a hell of a lot less than an iron block RB26.

    Oh, and I would imagine a VQ35 would allow a 240SX to handle a lot better than a RB26

  • positive displacement isin't only supercahrgers

    positive displacement is what turbos and superchargers were refered to before they were called "forced induction"

    don't disgrace my name thinking i would consider a supercharger.

  • haha well tbh I grew up in the age where turbos and superchargers were all considered forced induction =P I hear about "positive displacement" air compressors and I assume you are talkin about superchargers, the one that comes to mind at first is Roots type superchargers, but twin screws also fall into that category.

    And tbh again, I didn't mean anything about your name, just what I think of when I hear or read positive displacement.

    My main point: I'd rather have (both built) TT VQ over a RB

  • so wat the vq is fine and real torque-y

  • @VQ35DER the vq 35s are lighter than a sr20 (30s not sure about 35s) also they are shorter so they sit further back it not to mention the amount of torque it has over the sr which adds up to a well balanced torque monster

  • yes u r rite

  • RB's are great.
