Message	The VG30DETT is a VERY heavy engine though. Those that have done the LS1 swaps find the V8 to be almost 200lb lighter. The VG in our cars already sits VERY far back and very low in the engine bay. Current Z's: 1991 Silver Metallic TT 5spd 353RWHP/402ft/lb (re-dyno soon!) Previous Z's: 2004 350z Enthusiast model, 6 spd, stock. 4k miles R.I.P. 1993 300zx TT Stock 141k Miles (parts car) 1994 300zx TT Stage I+ 52k Miles 1990 300zx NA Stage VII+ 55k miles 1990 300zx TT Stage II+ 89k miles
