the mounts as you can see, it is well designed and will be well made. the new oil pan we will be making, will have 1" thick CNC flange, with aluminum sheet welded pan/sump. our kit will also have other necessary parts like headers, radiator kit and electronic adapter box. if you just compare apple to apple (with the same parts), our price will be a lot more less than others. We don't have the price yet, but this is the ETA:
the 1st round of the kit supports LS1-LS9 with T56 tranny. the 2nd round of the kit will support LQ9 LM7 Motor with Auto tranny (a lot more less cost on the motor+tanny than the LS1). |

for the driveshaft we will be offering, it will only work with the position we have the motor sits (which should be the most common position). if you want to change the motor position, then just have your driveshaft custom made locally. we will offer the kits in many different combinations to meet many different needs or applications. as you can see, we have put in a lot of design and development thoughts into this project, a lot of the products being developing have many considerations from many resources we have. the goal is to develop the best possible products in terms of functioning, quality, easy of installation, durability, and cost. |

we finished the Auto Tanny Mount. after we finished the development. we will offer different combination of the mounting kit:
1. LSx Car Motor with T56 Manual Tranny (this probably the one that most people want to do, but higher cost on the motor+tranny) 2. LSx Car Motor with Truck Auto Tranny (A little bit less cost, probably for the none drifters) 3. LQ LM Truck Motor with Truck Auto Tranny.(Cheap but stronger Motor, and widely available, but need to swap out the front accessories on truck motor and intake MF to fit the car chassis) 4. LQ LM Truck Motor with Manual Tranny. (Cheap but stronger Motor, good tranny) These are the two tranny Mounts, for Auto and Manual. |

That's great you guys are thinking of people that don't want an expensive manual transmission(drifter) and want to keep the comfort of an auto.(MY GF) Hopefully my stocks go up when this swap comes out that way I can pick up 2!

Yes. after the LS Swap projects, these are the engines we will do:
1. RB20/25 2. 1JZ-GTE VVTI (the new 1JZ) 3. 2JZGE or 2JZGTE (not sure we would do the 2JZGTE, too expensive, we don't think the market is big enough, with these LS swap kits released later, we don't think 2JZGTE can keep up when comparing to the costs) 4. then we will go back to re-do the KA24DE-T kit, will also offer internal built parts to make it easier and affordable, 300-350HP range with lower total cost builds) |

we know the market and understand what customers want and different level of affordability, we always keep that in mind when developing products to cover all levels of demands and price pints. PS. we won't tax on a certain kit because it is for "more expensive swap", these kits will be at the same price level, to cover all needs. |

Tech2 offers a pretty complete kit, but $1500+ is far too much in my opinion. It would be great to see a kit from you guys that covers the bigger basics like the 2jzswap.com offering (mount kit, motor mounts, driveshaft, shifter extension if using a 154, etc.) without the arm-and-a-leg pricing. I'll be keeping an eye out for this for sure. My plan was to pick up the Xcessive kit and source everything else, but I'd certainly like to get it all or as much as I can in one shot, so I spend less time building and more time driving Last edited by nu_born; 07-01-2012 at 11:14 PM.. |

Just a side note, this is the RB Swap kit we are doing on the older 240Z, the same RB25 motor will be used on the S13/S14 swap later.
if the interests on the 2JZ is large enough, we will make one. it should not be difficult for us at all. |

I hope it's gonna be cheaper than Sikky, about the same price as Hooker products maybe? I'm thinking on using their mounts since those are for sale already. Buy I'll definitely need a pan, power steering lines and a driveshaft.

hey guys when you get to designing the oil pan, can you make it slightly larger capacity and with baffles to prevent oil starvation? maybe even finned?
also what is the expected price range for the kit as it looks pretty complete ( minus say the clutch MC) |

I hope you do the GS300 soon. There is a big piece of market missing from the US which is the 4 door cars.
There are a lot of people that want to do the GS300 but there is not a swap available for it. You could corner the market with the GS platform as you would be the only game in town. There was another company that did a swap but it went under for some reason. |

Got the trial production of the Aluminum Mounting Plate done, we will be testing them.
also got the oil pan flange cut out, will drill some holes and starting making the oil pan. header and driveshaft mock up should be done within 1 week, so the kit is getting pieces together... |
