2JZ single turbo mani in S13 chassis

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

Does anyone know which manifolds will fit? I am gonna go with most likely a GT42R so I won't need a big T6 based manifold. Does anyone know if I can just buy an off the shelf manifold for a 2JZ and have it fit in the S13 chassis? My 240 has a swap using 2jzswap.com swap kit if that matters for fitment.

Any help would be great!

i believe they will work just fine. you might have some issues with the downpipe, but nothing a little custom work cant handle. best of luck,

Depending on the WHP level and if you just want a POS Supra dyno queen, a simple TO4R will be more then anough turbo for you. The mani isn't the problem at all, as mentioned, you'll need a custom DP, which isn't difficult. Basically during a motor swap you can look forward to all new plumbing.

The motor is already in the car it's just on stock twins. My Supra had a 70GTS and a 100shot and I assure you it was nowhere close to a dyno queen. It would have ripped a new one on nearly any street 240.

The spool on the GT42R is a lot better than the T04R and the shop that I am using highly recommends it. Not to mention it has more headroom for when I want to really turn up the whick.

If the downpipe is the only issue then that's great, thanks everyone!
