Found this on a search since I am swapping a turbo engine and ZX Alternator into my 75 (1/75 build date).
I had 6 wires and they were different than any of the 3 write-ups I found online. I ended up following the OP's direction and ended up jumping 2-3 and 5-6 with a diode in the 5-6 splice since it was key-on hot.
My conclusion is that Datsun changed wiring frequently. Don't just count terminals and think it will work. Verify what you have at each wire before splicing.

You know, as mentioned, you can just hang a turbo on what you got...
I did that in 1985 to my N/A L28 and well over 40,000 miles later still going strong... Last I checked it was 40K miles, before I was doing 26k miles a year commuting with it... did that for 2...maybe 3 years before I got a company vehicle. I think all told that L28NA has compiled 78,000 commuter miles plus the original 40K before my VW Van was moved to retirement as driving a canyon daily to work was a LOT more fun in the Z! Maybe 110,000 N/A converted - to - Turbo miles on it (12psi normal, 17 regularly on the weekends, and 21 psi on occasion...)
Think about it.
I hate to dredge up an old thread, but that is what happens when you search. You find things that make you go Hmmmm.
So Tony, can you give a little more detail on this build? What was the base head and block, what did you have to do in order to run that boost besides "hanging a turbo on".
I have been looking for an L28et and I have a line on a couple, but nothing close. If I could run 10-14 PSi on the N42 block and head with proper fuel and spark management I would put my energy into that for now and wait for the turbo motor to come along later.

MS neophyte question:
Megamanual says I can import tables from these old tunes into MS/Extra " Follow the steps above in A.7 to export and import your tables." But there is no A.7 in the setup manual. Any links to how to import tables would be appreciated.
