Why do you have to ruin an otherwise great Z mod vid with shit music in the background? Let the engine make the noise.

If done right, I believe any engine can run reliably and perform better than expected. I've never driven a diesel powered Datsun or any car. But when I saw this video, I was like "Wow! Awesome! I'd love to see more sports cars with diesel engines installed." If there's any complaint I have with the video is the music.

Between the music and the crackling noise, talk about ruining an otherwise good video!

@osp80 It would have been a near bolt-in on any other year 240, as well ~ WHY carve up one of the very few 1970 models left on the planet?? They are so few now they need to be preserved, not modified. The Datsun/Nissan Z car is the most-popular sports/GT car in history (based on sales), & this was the year that started that landslide. They made more than 31,000 1971 240Zs, & they were just as lightweight as the '70s. Why not pick on one of those instead of a year that deserves to be restored?

@FLSHBK1 how do you figure he killed the car,it's nearly a bolt in engine swap
-
I wish there was no back ground Music. I prefer to hear the car as is.

That engine was from a 1981.5-83 Maxima.
-
where did you source that engine from?
Do you have a build thread somewhere? I want to build one of my own. This is my new dream car.
Fuck the R8 TDi. My diesel sports car's gonna be L-powered.

To see the build thread for both the diesel engine and the separate turbo install, do a quick search on this site: nissandiesel*dyndns*org, under L-series engines. There are a lot of photos and caveats. * = .
