My tercel:: 83 4wd sr5

96 maxima Vq30 & 350z 6 speed swap in 83 sr5

Post by nissan-tercel »

Brief introduction. Names Joey. Hi. New to the forum. Looks like an awesome community. Maybe a little cultish Hahah jk always loved the tercel wagons and moving from Florida to spokane Washington in about a month. Wife is in the air force. 26 year old stay at home dad of 2 little boys. Joseph (2) and Dexter (3). I am a christian and owe everything to my loving creator.

I've built several z cars from high comp triple Weber 40s to turbo 300zxs to 350zs. Usually more of a nissan/datsun enthusiast but a new chapter in my life has left me wanting to do a crazy swap. But im a huge fan of most 80s japanese cars. The uglier and more 80s the better. Aka tercel. Just love these cars.

So Lord willing gonna be picking up a red 83 sr5 in a few weeks. No motor. Will be selling the manual 4wd trans.

Swap plans:

CHASSIS:
-83 tercel 4wd sr5 wagon

BUDGET: $3,000

ANY VQ30DE/DEK ENGINE

FROM 95-96 MAXIMA:
-Alternator and wiring
-Engine harness and all appropriate sensors
-dash harness and gauges
-ecu
-maf sensor
-dash harness and gauges
-fuel level sender


FROM Z/G:
-complete transmission assembly
-slip yoke
-rear coolant pipe
-starter
-headers

INTAKE MANIFOLD:
-flip a32 intake forward.
OR
-Make custom forward or side facing from a32 manifold
(May cause hood clearance issues)
OR
-00vi maxima intake cut and flip

OR
-vq35 pathfinder upper
(Drill and tap lower, or flip lower and enlarge holes in upper)

The BIG UNKNOWNS!😬😲

CUSTOM:
