It bolts right up, all you have to change is the canooting valve. Do it.

Do you have to do a blinker fluid swap when you do this too?

You have to re-taper the torque thrust valve to do it:


In order for the piston angle sensor to clear the valve trunks, they have replacement helical axillary arm (20/1) and adjust it about a third counter clockwise from the conjoining tab




edit: my soarer v12 swap progress so far:

It fits with the stock auto but you need to modify the firewall and shock towers to shoehorn it in

^Its on page 64.

I forgot about the torque thrust valve.

He might as well just get the turbo encabulator. It helps prevent sidefumbling and is pretty cost effective.

Definitely a Nissan Stanza tranny. You need something that can handle all that raw power.

+1 on that. I used a knock off 01-34 type off a 300zx and completely killed my bearing centrifuge


what would be hella sick is if you can squeeze in a signal generator so you can adjust the air/oil mixture to a ratio of 1/45. Doing too much would lead to charge loss and you will seriously blow up the counterweights

Sorry guys, you all have some great ideas but I just installed some jetpacks on my SC and it flies through SoCal traffic with ease. It's also solar powered so I don't need to worry about MPG.
