    Dude! Just a lil update, I'm almost finished with my auto tech vocational school and I landed a job at a nissan dealership! Thank you for all the inspiration 🙏

    Thank you!! Not enough tutorials out there for this job. I'm glad I don't have to pull the trans out since I'm doing the job on jack stands.

    Never dropped a VQ on a 370, but G35 M35 FX ect.... dropped the engine trans and rack together out the bottom... Just gotta remember remove flywheel to torque converter bolts. We had a lift table super handy! Use the lift to separate the motor from trans boom all done👍

    Hey guys love you video
    I have a question on a 2012 370z my engine need to be replaced I located one with low mileage but it is automatic would that work on my car since I have a manual transmission??

      You would probably need an automatic ECU and the wire harness.

    Not sure what my problem is. Mechanic thinks my motor is locked up. Car qont even turn over, sounds like starter is trying. Looked up CEL and said cam positions sensors on both banks are bad, and crank sensor is bad. But I put a braker bar on the crank pully and it won't budge. Also I think my CSC is bad. Is their any way the bad CSC can cause my motor not to turn? Or the sensors cause it to go into protect mode and not turn? I've driven the car like 2k miles and not beat on it. I don't believe I ever noticed the car get hot either. Just drove it home one day and the car wouldn't rev in any gear except neutral, then when I went to start it the next morning it wouldn't even turn over

    Yo, great content on your channel as always, Ive been wanting to ask since your last update on moving back with Yota, as a line tech do you have to call out diagnostic shots, if so what happens when one gets the diagnosis wrong. Plz explain with as much detail, thx.

    hey, dude rarely subscribe but usually if I do it because they are very informative! I've wanted to be a mechanic and just like you, I'm in automotive school but my biggest fear is after i graduate how do i find a job in the industry in the dealership? Like will they provide and teach dealership specific repairs? What would the first week look like? And how can i learn to do car mods?

    Where’s the anyway to just drop the entire engine with trans from the bottom, just like the 2gr-fe . I mean the 2gr have a cradle which is easier but idk I’m curios if you could be done with that Vq engine

    • @williambryant100
      @williambryant100 3 роки тому +1

      Yes you can . You can drop the whole motor trans on a hydraulic table cart. There a video on UA-cam somewhere.

    About to drop my motor
    Would you use an engine crane, or is it advisable to just use a hydraulic table lift and drop it all with the subframe
    Or do you need both?

    • @LetsDriftMedia
      @LetsDriftMedia  4 місяці тому +1

      Never dropped it with the subframe out the bottom but this was also our first time pulling this engine. Crane worked fine for us.

      Judging by the looks of the car he probably abused it. Ran it low while doing donuts or drifting.

      @DennyBalance 3 роки тому +1

      They are reliable I had mine go to 205k before I sold it (needed 4 seats) and now my current one at 160k. But big mistakes I see is letting it run too low on oil and also running intakes way too big without a tune

    • @LetsDriftMedia
