ok, so i decided to ditch my old 7afte set up and go 3sgte. i am in the middle of pulling the engine. all that is left is 2 bolts to the trans, the motor mounts, starter and power steering. whats the best way to pull the power steering because i am having some trouble with getting it out and its slowing me down a little.

I think this project just got a hole lot easyer. this kid i sorta no that lives a few blocks down from me also has a 6th gen a used to go on this site a while ago untill he blew his motor in his GT. i saw him drivin a twin turbo 300ZX today so i figured he gave up on doing anything to his celi so i stoped by and gave him a visit. i was going to just buy the mounts, trans, shifter cable and a few interior pieces off his car untill he offered me $1,000 for the hole car. at first i was like ok, i can take what i need and sell the rest....when it hit me, i would be much better off just puting the 3sgte into that car being its allready a GT, has the mounts and is all ready 5 speed. what do you think??

So i would say its your call bro. it was going to cost me around a grand for new trans, motor mounts, axels ect. so now i can just use that car and sell my old ST to my neighbor because he has been dieing to get a 6th gen ever since i got mine. |
