Does anyone know of any places producing engine mounts for this conversion? and if so, do these mounts allow you to use the standard bonnet? secondly, is there room for a larger turbo, using the standard manifold? I'm planning a build for another Z, and looking at going down the VQ road. Any help or links to info would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
I don't know of anyone making the mounts, but that is the least of your worries. You also need a custom sump which is a huge headache. I haven't seen a VQ with a standard inlet manifold fit below the bonnet of a Z32 without major crossmember mods. I don't see why a larger turbo wouldn't fit, but I haven't had a good look at a VQ in a Z32 in the flesh.
Thanks for the reply. I thought I'd read somewhere that there was a sump from another car that fit, rather than having a custom one made up. The standard inlet manifold is ugly anyway... although a custom one would be bloody expensive.
