Hey guys, pretty new to the site here so i’m not too keen on navigating the treads yet so i’m posting a new one hoping i can get some pointers on this. Somewhere in the near future im going to get mid mileage engine and wanna know what route to take for repairs. As of now im planning to get the engine and buy an AWD VR30 trans to put in together onto my 2010 G37X. I’m going to get the Z1 swap kit for it and do all install myself because i’m fortunate enough to work in a shop.
As for the engine that’s going in i’m getting a 2012 or newer engine so i don’t run into a slipped intake phaser (one of the reasons im deciding to throw a whole “new” engine in), for it i’m getting a complete gasket set , the “upgraded” galley gaskets, a master hose set, coil packs, and cold air intakes from Z1. Is there anything else that you guys could think of getting or anything that i should look out for when putting the “new” engine back together like extra bolts (that aren’t one time use just for the sake of it) or sensors that i should buy to throw on as well?
