Anyone know if the exhaust manifold bolt pattern on the cyldinder head of a KA24E is the same as the one on a KA24DET?? I am pretty sure it's not. I have a '95 Nissan D21 pickup. I've had a couple of turbo projects before that turned out well, and am considering doing one with the truck. Thanks!

no they're not even close. However, Z24 and ka24 are very close. I ran a turbo manifold designed for a z-series on a KA and it worked just fine. So, IF you could source a z18 turbo manifold from australia or japan I would use that or check out JGStools.com for they're kits. peace.

JGS tools.com sells turbo kits for the HB's with the KA24e, and it will work with the z24 thats equipped in your truck. peace.
