my 91 240sx has 180 thousand grandpa driven miles on it and operates perfectly except when the motor reaches 1500-2000 rpm there is what feels like turbo lag, (no turbo, i wish!). i was wondering if this has happened to anyone else with a high mileage ka24de engine, and if so what was done to resolve it, thanks.

have u checked ur engine grounds? only other thing i can i think of is to clean ur IACV or ACC. I'd check all your all ur vaccum hoses. But probably is a engine or ecu ground problem

Check the EGR valve.
