The great thing about Japanese car manufacturers is that many parts are interchangeable between makes. Just look to Honda and the variety of engine swaps that fit into a myriad of little cars. The Nissan 300ZX is a worthy car in the long history of Z-cars. This bad boy cam loaded with a twin-turbo dual-cam engine. But this 300ZX is unlike any other. While most work around the cramped spaces of the VG30DET engine bay, Russ Tennyson had something more magical up his sleeve; a RB26DETT engine out of a Nissan Skyline.
Let’s just get right down to numbers; this Nissan 300ZX pumps out 416-hp on the dyno. Not the huge numbers you were thinking? Well this is only on low boost at one bar (14psi). There is plenty of room for growth, but the budget calls for a reasonable build. A JUN crankshaft and cam gears were installed into the RB engine along with some bigger RC injectors. The Turbo is a Garrett GT35R with a Greddy fuel rail and Type-R blow-off valve releasing air between shifts.
Old Skool Regamaster 17-inch rims fill the wheel wells while TEIN coilovers round out the suspension mods. A JUN body kit and Moss Pearl paint job finish off the modification on this Z32. While this is not the ultimate Nissan 300ZX, it shows what kind of abnormal path a tuner can take in building a project.

Even looking at it 20 years after its initial release it still looks good,
