| wsup ppl i'm new to the board, im 19 from california and i jus bought my first car (not my first car ever i've been driving performance cars all my life but just the first time i independently purchased a car) a 91 twin turbo about 2 months ago.. at first things havent been really going well after less then a week of buying the car, the radiator leak that the prev. owner told me about was more serious than i thought and one day after filling up the coolant level in the morning i ended up overheating and blowing the motor that afternoon 2 minutes after getting off the freeway into city streets..
lesson learned lol dont drive when theres a radiator leak.. anyway after finisheing finals n some other bs i finally have the time to work on this thing, n i purchased a new motor and started working on the car to set it up for the engine swap due tomorrow (by trained mechanic of course), and i was wondering if there was any other stuff i need to worry about other than to replace all of the hoses, thermostat, buy coolant, oil, and plugs.. anybody ever done a jdm motor swap before? the old motor in the car now is supposedly a jdm motor as well, so im thinking everything should be plug n play.. plz correct me if i'm wrong. i would appreciate any advice anybody has to offer on this as well. oh also if anybody knows where i can rent or buy a chilton or helms or any other good 300zx work manual for a good price i would appreciate it as well. before pics...
