Same chassis and transmission with the VR30 means Nissan will be creating all the appropriate physical mounts/bracing and wiring harnesses and we can just steal the part numbers, right?

Is there more physical hammering/cutting/hacking/blowing stuff up that cannot be solved with potentially swapped parts from the factory in a few years?

My dream would be to be able to drop in the VR30 in a couple years and have a superior engine that mostly drops right in and runs like factory even with minor mods
I’m waiting to see the new Nissan Z at Z1 one day and take a look. So far it seems like it will be 100% the same process. MIGHT be able to take the core support from the new Z and put it on a 370z since it looks like it might bolt up. Who knows, but I’m willing to find out lol.

Wiring will still be the biggest hurdle.
