GeeZ Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I recently purchased two cars. '78 280Z converted to carbs and another 280Z I bought for parts. I plan on converting the carb car to EFI and in future to stock ZX turbo ( I have all the parts) My question is: Can I use the ZXT harness for the non-turbo 280 and later convert with the ZXT harness already in place? Anyone ever try this? I have searched w/o luck. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Yes you can run the NA motor with the turbo parts, but you can not run as high boost. I would recommend running the stock boost on the NA motor only, unless you run an intercooler or Methanol/water injection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeZ Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 Thanks for you input, but my question is weather I can use the ZXT harness now w/o turbo'ing the car and sometime in the future add the turbo? In other words will the ZXT harness work with the NA motor and w/o turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stprasinz Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 As in the ecu? and harness.... Yes.... Why not.. there relatively simple the flow meter just monitors how much air goes in... You would have to run the turbo injectors also..... Ive ran my turbo engine ecu harness etc with no turbo... just had no nuts compared to boost. which is relatively obvious good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
