Hello everyone. I am new to this forum. I just recently got my hands on a white 1992 240sx coupe with pop up lights and a seized automatic KA24DE. I am going to be swapping in a CA18DET 5-speed. I think the project is going to take about a year. I am doing it myself.

So my first question is this. I want to upgrade the turbo. I have a wicked deal on a rs-r gt-2 exhaust and downpipe for an SR20. If i swap to an sr20 t25 or t28 turbo will the downpipe bolt up or will it need to be modified?

itll bolt up as long as you use the sr o2 housing.

there is no elbow. the downpipe is flanged to bolt right onto the turbo exhaust housing.

You've got one like what I have. It will bolt up to a CA T25, SR T25, and any of the T28's.

thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. I am getting an unopened RS-R GT-2 exhaust and downpipe for 630 canadian dollars from a dealership.

boost on gentlemen!
