Hi Brian,
I have fitted an FJ20 atmo. to my 1971 510, and will be fitting an
RB25DE with VVT to my 1973 240Z.
The RB will slot straight in to the HS30 body with only the gear stick
hole being enlarged to the manual cutout line (it was an auto 240).
If you haven't already, check out the pics at:-

for the "250Z"
and
www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4290669159
for the 510.
Regards,
Graeme Suckling

It has been done.  I finished my conversion about six or seven months
ago.

While Van says there are others out there, I have not seen another
running
turbo version yet.  Michael Spreadbury has been quite successful with
the N/A
swaps up in the bay area though.  The car is an absolute blast to
drive, but
for most people I would recommend the N/A version due to the extra
costs of
the turbo.  Things quickly get out of hand.  I think the N/A swap
could be
done for just over half of what I spent.  If anyone out there is
interested in
any kind of Datsun motor swap, please feel free to contact me.  My
friend and
I are offering motors swap kits for all the old Datsuns.  Z car, 510,
Roadster, whatever.  We have just gotten going with our RB series
swaps for Z
cars, and I would be happy to duplicate my Roadster for someone.
