junglist Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 http://cheapturbo.stores.yahoo.net/ Has really nice turbos for a pretty good price. Just don't buy an ebay turbo thats made in china and only costs like $150...those are complete junk and you will regret wasting your money.

mikeatrpi Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Phil it will be very difficult to swap a 300zx motor into your 280zx. The easiest way to do it is to swap in an entire 280zxt motor and electronics from a donor car. You can also buy some of the 280zxt parts used, fab the rest, and add the turbo to your NA motor. Here's my build: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=127833 Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
