trwebb26 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 is there a specific year or engine code I should be looking for when I pick up one of these on ebay? I've seen writeups for the KA24DE model, but there are KA24E models from 1990 that look very similar. Does the throttle body have to come with the cruise control part, too? Everybody talk about cutting off the cruise control part, but the KA24E that I saw didn't have it. Please straighten me out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruez Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 The one off the KA24DE works. (twin cam) I believe some of the others are only 55mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifegrddude Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Engine code doesn't really matter, but you'll want to find one that doesn't have CC because it will make the installation a bit easier. The ones with CC have a longer shaft that has to be ground/cut down. I just recently installed mine that didn't have CC onto my zxt. It's pretty easy, just leave yourself a few hours to do the grinding nicely and you'll be set. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatRaveR Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Is there any way to retain the stock cruise control ('82 280ZXT) after converting to the S13 TB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Adam Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I'm in the process of doing this right now and the TB I got has the cruise control. It is my intention to use it. I am still waiting on one of Pallnet's spacers and I can almost gaurantee you that the throttle levers will clear the #1 manifold runner. If they don't I'll just rotate it and deal with it.

Warren Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 The cruise control cable on a ZX attaches to the throttle linkage near the firewall. The throttle body has absolutely nothing to do with it. You could use any throttle body you wanted to and it wouldn't matter as far as the cruise control is concerned, provided you kept the original linkage intact.
