Message save yourself time and money in the long run and buy a front clip. if not, you will find yourself paying top dollar for the rarer items. unless you are intimately familiar with the vg30dett and the 300zx twinturbo specifically, the front clip will include parts you had no idea existed or never knew were necessary or were overlooked. if you think you need an engine, some manifolds, a two turbos, intercoolers, and intercooler piping, then you are in a world of hurt and heading for a poorly executed conversion.

also, dont forget to buy a new efi harness unless your connectors are in great shape and not at all brittle. if you find the connectors starting to shape when you unplug them, replace the entire harness, or you will find yourself chasing gremlins in the future.

also, a front clip will likely not included a tt fuel pump, which is highly recommended unless you are running low low boost. you do not want to find the limits of the na fuel pump the hard way.

or, you could not take my advice and buy all the parts separately and pay top dollar for each part separately over the span of several years.

a video showing the minimum engine parts, but none of the accessory specific parts: a/c lines and condenser, power steering lines, oil cooler setup (included in the setup in the video, but not seen). hopefully, i have proved my point and you will trust i am steering you in the right direction.
