Subbed. I'm actually looking at doing this exact same thing. Any tips/tricks or anything you would change up if you could redo it? I'm currently on a time constraint at this very second, but I was recommended this (for obvious reason lol) so I wanted to comment this, and get this on my watch list to go through your channel to view your build progress. Thanks! My specific car is the 06 revup 350z i have a turbo kit installed on it, which currently has a few...major problems lol. When I do this, I'll be looking to acquire a crashed 350z 07 - 08 (manual for the jk since my cd009 will not bolt up), and plan on purchasing a number of OEM Replacement parts so that many things can be new, rather than damaged, used, or problematic later on.

​@@Nathaniel2503Awesome, I look forward to it! Ever consider doing the VQ37 Short Block on the HR, too?

​@@Nathaniel2503Hope life has found you well, end up making that video? I've decided to go the route of fully replacing portions of my 06 RevUp with the 07-08 via donor car. Was wondering if there's a basic "To get this to run on the street, you need these" list. Judging from what I've learned these months, without a harness done, it's essentially: - HR/Trans (obviously lol) - Clutch & lines - Power Steering moved & new lines *- Steering rack -- Do you need the 07/08 rack for the VDC light to turn off?* - Coolant moved & new lines, Rad Support, Rad, etc - ECU & Harness (obviously) - Door Harness, various interior harnesses - Door, dash, etc (Would love to know what actually does work, what doesn't) - Steering Column (for the key/lock) - Optional if not able to get the key reprogrammed - Door Handles (for key) - Optional if not able to get the key reprogrammed Anything else I may be missing? I see some back and forth a few places about steering racks, but it's unclear if 06 "would" work, or cause any issues. Quick edit: I realized after writing this that, technically, a Locksmith (provided you confirm, I do know of one that can) can actually edit the BCM & ECU to change out the key to another one. So it's feasible that the steering column & door handles may not be required to be removed if this service is available in your area. Thanks in advanced!
