What parts are needed to LS swap your NISSAN 350Z or INFINITI G35

[@Ek0wn]

If you have any hesitation with swapping the rear diff bushing out, it's relatively easy. Z1 sells a diff bushing tool that makes it pretty painless and switching to a polyurethane bushing really tightens up the rear.

[@wade_debo]

For sure I will look into that setup from Z1 ! Thanks !

First time seeing the inside of a Supra thing looks like a space ship 🔥🔥

[@wade_debo]

Many people would agree with that ! It never gets old,they did a great job with the interior 👍

This is dope. I'm bout to start looking for a ls3 for my g35. Wish me luck 😂

Best of luck ! You won’t regret it !

I like your oil filter relocation better than the LOJ relocation kit. The LOJ kit puts the filter up on the front of the cylinder head which means you have to route the lines around the headers. It't not horrible, but required extra care to make sure they weren't rubbing anywhere in a that tight space.

[@wade_debo]

Yea it’s very straightforward! The lines are nice and far away from the headers to which is a nice piece of mind that they won’t burst under high heat.

[@mattbolger16]

That 350z sounds so mean, a sleeper for sure until you fire it up 😂 also that 2jz gte engin is looking SO CLEAN 🫡

[@wade_debo]

Thanks buddy ! Yes the 2jz is coming together it’s starting to look like a nice piece of furniture in the shop aha

[@leonardodeledda3952]

First off you did an amazing job with the car I freaking love it!!! I seen a couple of swaps where people had to beat the fire wall in so it wouldn’t touch the cylinder heads and coil packs, did you have an issue with that as well?

[@wade_debo]

Thanks ! I am still in love with how it turned out ! It’s very very close ! Had to massage it slightly for the one cylinder head. I also had the machine shop take a little of the cylinder head that was just excess material that didn’t effect strength or the operation of the head.

[@FinalDriveRacing]

nice car, i was the one who made it at wiring specialties and i remember us talking for a bit

Thanks ! You guys did a great job the wirring harness is working great still ! 👍

Nice video.. i have a question: when you change the motor for a LS, you have to change the transmission to match the motor?

[@wade_debo]

Keep the stock 350z transmission and it uses a ln adapter plate to mate up to the LS engine

[@themountain6437]

overcharging alternator isnt a problem at all, just needs to maintain it and not drop.

[@wade_debo]

It’s a problem when it’s spiking to 16/17 volts and then back down to 12 volts (just running off battery) then spiking all in a matter of a few seconds that’s what I meant when I was talking about that !

[@wade_debo]

Also it fried a few things to some LED lights that had and such that’s why I was talking about it just didn’t want anyone else to have an issue !

I would look into a return style fuel system then you can control the exact fuel pressure with the system to whatever the engine/ injectors need !

Just talking electrical. What ECU did you go with? I’m going with the wiring specialties harness but I’m confused on the ECU. Thanks!

It’s an E38 ECU it’s out of a Camaro/corvette the same years they had the ls3 in those cars. Wirring specialties will provide you with the ECU with all VATS removed I highly recommend getting the ECU from wirring specialties they guarantee the start up and it’s best to get harness and ECU from the same people !

Not really much difference it’s probably a temperature thing with how hot the oil can’t get if I where to guess !

So I wanna have fun now while I can...thanks to whoever has some advice...I've already searched google, evidently I'm not asking right

Hello, one question, I have a 2003 Nissan 350z to put an engine like this in it and I need a lot of modifications or is it simple

[@wade_debo]

If you have some knowledge of working on cars I would say this would be not a hard job it’s mainly just making sure everything lines up properly and things are routed properly and away from heat to reduce the risk of a fire or melting things.

[@xdeadwrongxdeadwrong7181]

Exactly what ls3 did you use ?

[@wade_debo]

Ls3 based of the Camaros and the corvettes of that year. 2006 to 20012 I believe

[@AP-wu1rv]

So do you use an exhaust that fits only the 350 or did you have to look for an exhaust that fits the LS

[@wade_debo]

I custom made my exhaust out of an aftermarket system. Basically from the pre made sikky manufacturing headers to half way back I made custom.

[@apollomotivation7492]

When doing the swap do you keep the same suspension or you have to modify something on it for the swap ?

@@apollomotivation7492 keep the same suspension the weight of the new engine isn’t much off the stock v6 that was in it !

[@uhhzeez601]

Would a ac compressor fit with the sikky motor mounts?

[@wade_debo]

I would have to take a look, now that you mentioned that I believe a company makes a custom compressor that bolts up but is a tad smaller to avoid hitting the motor mount. I also believe there is a relocation kit for the compressor to.
