The vg felt very limited. And cams are not cheap for the thing. Ls engines have way better support. It's getting the na z32 IRS to match the z32 5 speed.  The 5.3 with a cam and the adequate upgrades to the heads and LS1 intake will be close to pushing 450ish hp and low 500s torque. Soo I'm really looking forward to the next stage of this build. 

I do have a 6.0 lq9 with a t56 but that's for my other obs Chevy. Was very tempted to go with the 6 speed on the Datsun.

Yeah you guys have it hard in the states.  LS anything off the shelf bloody awesome.

 

We can compare notes once I get the vk56 in mine.   3 to 400.at the treads will be umm dangerous with the tray back 🙃

Ohh how times fly, things change but still clinging on. 💯

Hood trim along the bottom needs to be blacked out to match the rest of the grill.

 

What no smoky LS burnouts? What now Tesla swap?

That is a great idea! No burn outs just yet.  😂 I almost want to convert the ls to carb. I like simple and minimal electronics.

I don't know...EFI is simple and reliable really.  So many ways to tune etc as well.  So is the LS in with no mods to bonnet?
