Guest Anonymous Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 What would I need to do to drop the Toyota 7M-GTE Turbo motor in my 78 280Z? Has someone done it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony240ZT Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 Hey Dustin, glad you found my email. Hope you follow through with the swap. I usually hang out in the turbo section. There is a guy in Oz that installed one in his 240Z. The guy is a big time soccer player over there and has tons of money to dump into his car. He had someone else do the work for him, ended up looking very clean, he has the same setup as I do, intercooler, stand alone engine management, after market clutch. If I had more money that T60 turbo, forged internals, arp fasteners, ceramic coatings, and porting would be done before dropping it in. But I guess the stock 260hp (jap spec) isn't bad in an old z car. The fasteners and metal head gasket are the first on my list of upgrades, then I'll be searching around for a larger turbo setup.
