Z24 conversion advice

[_chiefjt]

So I have a '86 Nissan 720 with the z24 motor. I want more power but I think in the long run I think I'll save and be happier with a turbo kit rather than side drafts. This is just my opinion I don't really know. I know side drafts will chug down my gas but isn't fuel injected more efficient.

 

Anyways, I want to convert my stock z24 motor to either TBI or MPFI. I want to know which has better performance and if it's possible after I convert it, can I put a turbo kit on it? I have seen other people convert but no turbo. I've seen mobilejoe's build but it seems too scattered or sloppy. No offense

 

What car/truck can I use that will be able to bolt right up? I think the '86 hardbody will bolt up but not sure. I'va also seen this done but it's TBI.

So I need some advice.

 

Thanks,

The very late 720 came with TBI as did the'86.5 to '89 Hardbody

Yeah my truck does have TBI but I want that look ka motors have. I just want ti keep the motor that i have.

 

Basically I want to know what all I'll need to convert it and put a turbo my z24.

Well you did say convert to TBI...

 

 

 

 

If you want Z24 turbo here's someone who has it in Z22 size using a KA24E EFI and the earlier 200sx intake/throttle ....

use mpfi and nistune to tune it
