I myself like the 70's corrollas and rx3 wit the original paint schemes. I know a guy that has a rx3 with a 88 turbo motor in his. It should be pretty quick when he's done, but it is kindy of ugly compared to the z.

Yeah I'd be interested to know what your setup is too.

I have the 83l28et which from what I read has a p90a, which according to you guys is not good for performance. I plan on using the stock t3 turbo with a intercooler and 10-12psi of boost and a bov. Would it be better to change to a p79 or a p90 than to keep the stock p90a. Thanks John

Lockjaw I didn't know the p90 came from the l28et, due to the fact I just bought the car and still gathering some info. Iwas thinking of taking the head from a N/A z and putting it on the l28et. But I am guessing this would cause to many problems with reliability and might not even work or be worth the effort for the power gain. I was just wondering about ideas. Thanks for the input.

Will a p90 head work with the stock l28et, and if it does how much power can it net you. I don't know much about this yet, I'm just learning, but the different head changes the compression right, so what I am asking if the compression will work with the turbo will work with the turbo motor.

What is the best place to graft the engine electrical wiring harness of the 83 l28et to the 76 engine electrical system. Also which fuse box do you use, the 280zx one or the 280z. Also what are all the main fuses, relays and modules you need to swap. Thanks, John

Where can you buy those from at a reasonable price. -
what kind of quarter times do you guys get with your rb powered z cars. Also i am decided what to do with my 280z. I am in school at the moment and don't have much time or a whole lot of money, do you think the rb swap would be a wise choice for a start or an 280zxt motor. Thanks, John

Question on 280zx turbo motor into 76' Z
john kosmatka replied to john kosmatka's topic in 6 Cylinder Z Forums
I am having a second thought about this swap, I am in the process of acquiring a 83' zx turbo. I am thinking about just keeping the zxt and restoring the 76' to orriginal and before I decided I wanted to know if the handling of the zxt is any better than the earlier Z's. And if the suspension has more potential for modifications than the earlier Z's. Thanks for your help, John -
I was wondering, what are all the the major modifications do you have to make to do this swap. Refering to the wiring harness, ecu, transmission and fuel delivery.

Ed i have the same problem with my z. I found that this is most likely the fuel filter/tank is dirty. I have the clear fuel filter through wich i can see rust so i'm guessing that the tank has rust. I haven't tried to fix it yet but this is most likely it. You might want to reasearch this more with your z. John

I was wondering what struts and springs should i go with tokico or eibach.

What is the best after market suspension for a 76 280.

Does any body know if the monza exhaust from victoria british works well with headers. And does it sound good or not.

Are strut bars and sway bars a good modification to z cars to improve handling.
