J240ZTurbo Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 so I installed a 60mm 240sx tb on my 280zxt and I can clearly see that the old tps from the 280zxt wont fit, so here is my question I will like to know from what year of 240sx tps I can installed on here that will work with my factory 280zx turbo ecu ? thanks, Juan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeboshi Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I dont think a 240sx tps will work with the stock ecu. It only has two contactors instead of the three that are in the z tps, unless there are only two inside the zxt tps then an automatic tps from a 240sx will work for sure with the stock connector.

loy Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The automatic one with two connectors(external and on unit itself) will work with stock ecu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanceVance Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Half of the reason for switching to the 240sx throttle body is to have a throttle position sensor when using an aftermarket EMS. If you are keeping the factory EMS you'll have to keep the factory throttle position switch. If you remove the plastic cover from your original TB's switch you might be able to drill some holes in the metal backing in-line with the 240sx' mounting points. I'm not sure what sort of clearances you'll have when it comes to putting the cover back on... Maybe someone could offer an easier solution, but as I said most people are upgrading both the TB and TPS simultaneously. Edit: Looks like Loy has the better solution!

loy Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I have done it before. Wasn't really year specific. I believe i used this one BECK/ARNLEY Part # 1580642 from rock auto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
