mtcookson Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I haven't been into the engine bay of the Z32 all that much yet but I'd say there's a chance the crossover pipe may not clear. The intake manifold is also a little taller than the DETT manifold if memory serves. You could swap the upper and lower intake manifold from a DETT but you'll need to port the lower intake manifold to match the DET heads as the ports are a little larger. By what I've heard from JWT (friend called them) they said you can use the N/A wiring harness and have the N/A ecu tuned to work with the DET. The DETT has a few different sensor or something along those lines according to JWT so it doesn't match up as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckedj30 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 are you talking of a vg30det, ie. an austrailian z32. Or a vg30et from a z31? Cause theres a bit of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtcookson Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 That I know of, no Z32 came with the VG30DET, only the VG30DETT. I believe it was the Leopard and possibly the Cima that came with the DET. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckedj30 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Yeah they didn't not in the U.S. at least that i've heard. The guy i know in Aussie, has one, just a Single turbo. Now whos this leopard and chima you speak of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtcookson Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 The Leopard and Cima are Japan Nissan models that had the option for the VG30DET. That Australian Z32 must've had a swap because the Z32's only came either n/a or twin turbo that I know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calico Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 search my threads, i had one talking about this topic. Basically it will work IF the Dett manifold could bolt on to the vg30det heads. The ports are diff/rectangular vs oval ports or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
