The Story

Unleash iconic 90s supercar performance with this premium JDM 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX VG30DETT 3.0L Twin Turbo Engine. Imported directly from Japan, this genuine OEM power plant is the ultimate replacement for your worn USDM block or a high-horsepower twin-turbo conversion swap for an original naturally aspirated (NA) chassis. The Japanese Domestic Market Fairlady Z VG30DETT is globally celebrated for its heavy-duty iron block construction, high-flow dual overhead cam (DOHC) cylinder heads, and its massive potential for scaling horsepower safely. Hand-selected from clean, low-mileage Japanese donor vehicles and thoroughly compression-tested, this complete longblock engine package is the premier choice for any Z32 enthusiast demanding authentic JDM build quality and structural perfection.


Vehicle Specifications

  • Year Range: 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996

  • Make & Model: Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo / JDM Fairlady Z (Z32 Chassis)

  • Engine Code: VG30DETT (3.0L Twin Turbo Specification)

  • Displacement: 3.0 Liters (2960 cc)

  • Engine Type: 24-Valve DOHC V6 (Dual Overhead Cam)

  • Condition: Premium Used Performance Import (Inspected, cleaned, and compression/leak-down tested)

  • Mileage: Approx. 45,000–60,000 miles (Low Japanese domestic usage)


Vehicle Fitments

  • Direct Factory Replacement: 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo models (USDM and JDM RHD models).

  • Naturally Aspirated (NA) to Twin Turbo (TT) Swap: Fits 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX Base/NA chassis (Note: Completing a full NA to TT conversion requires additional supporting components such as a twin-turbo spec radiator, intercoolers, upgraded fuel pump, and matching wiring/ECU changes).


Included Parts

  • VG30DETT Longblock: Complete iron block, twin-cam cylinder heads, oil pan, and valve covers

  • Twin Turbo Assembly: Dual original factory turbochargers with wastegate actuators and turbo oil/coolant lines

  • Exhaust Componentry: Factory cast-iron exhaust manifolds matching the twin-turbo layout

  • Engine Accessories: Alternator, power steering pump, starter motor, crank harmonic balancer pulley, and factory ignition coil packs


Installation & USDM Drop-In Notes

  • Wiring Harness & ECU Notice: This engine includes the Japanese engine-side wiring clip when available. If swapping this into a North American USDM chassis, you will need to utilize your original USDM 300ZX engine wiring harness and factory ECU to guarantee seamless dash cluster integration and plug-and-play electronic management.

  • Tuning & Fueling: The JDM VG30DETT requires premium 91+ or 93+ octane fuel. Ensure your mass airflow sensor (MAF) and fuel pressure regulators are fully operational prior to firing up the unit.

  • Preventative Maintenance: Due to the tightly packaged engine bay space of the Z32 chassis, it is highly recommended to perform a comprehensive service before dropping the engine in. We strongly advise replacing the timing belt (120k mile service kit), water pump, thermostat, rear main seal, front crank seal, valve cover gaskets, and spark plugs for long-term peace of mind.
