there are much better ways to go turbo IL6 in a s-car.
but if you insist:

You need a welder and a decent amount of knowledge about how to use it

You probibly need a whole 300zx to part out.

once you get those 3 things, Get the FSMs and start tracing wiring.


oh, and don't listen to these fags. If it doesn't have an aluminum block and rocker arms, it ain't shit according to them..

They bolt right in with a mount kit, The biggest problem is going to be the wiring harness. And doing it isn't a bad idea I know about a few people that have done it and got (sp) jim wolf parts for it and made nasty passes and still got great gas mileage. Jim Wolf makes all kinds of shit for those motors for cheap! I is like a 350 but in the nissan world.

I was actually thinking about doing it to a 240, My dad has done many and he stands by them He had one back in the early 90s that ran high 11's with some work done. He built it for nitrus but never ended up putting it on there,

Good luck. I will see if I can find a web site to help you out.
