Well currently i could get about any parts of a wrecked 300zx 94(its the TT one). It's sad for my friend but maybe a really good chance for me. :D The frame is dead but about everything else is ok.

I plan to Turbo my KA or get a RB25 and I have a 1995 240sx

So i used search and got info on brakes swap which i am aware of, also the z32 MAF and fuel pump.

Is there any other parts that would be a great asset to my 240sx?LSD?Injectors?any other things? I'll get them for ridicule price because it's going to the junkyard... i can take about anything but no place to keep the entire car and he give the car to the junkyard on friday :help

tks for the help:)

Shift knob, wheels, Nissan emblems......

Just take what you want and sell em to Z enthusiasts if they dont fit on your car.

The LSD and wheels will fit your car. And I think the injectors will fit the RB25.

If you use the LSD, make sure that you get the cv shafts also. Your drive shaft will bolt right up to the 300 rearend, but the shafts bolt pattern is different than the 240. If you really wanted to, you could use the whole rear suspension setup, but you would have to get custom struts made.

Don't send the turbo's to the junk yard, take them off, keep one for yourself and sell the other on ebay for a couple hundered bucks. The intercooler is probaly junk if he got into an accedent and if it is still a stock intercooler it is junk even if it is fine but if you want a cheap start on your turbo ka prodject it will work. Another part you will want for your turbo KA prodject is the fuel pressure regulator, and bov.

Don't the brakes bolt right up to an S14?

On the s14 if you have the SE or LE with the 5 lug setup. You can swap out the spindles on the rear to convert from 4 to 5 lug setup, but I don't think the front interchange.

the front brakes? of course you can swap those, and people with 4 lug can drill 3 new holes

I know that you can swap the brakes over. I just didn't think that the front spindals would interchange from the 300 to the 240, to get the 5 lug instead of the 4. I worded that badly on my previous post.

the diff won't bolt up.... he's got a TT. it's an R230, not an R200 (like ours). The CV shafts also wouldn't work without the z32tt hubs, as the splines are larger. It might be a good idea to just unbolt the entire rear subframe and keep that...... then fit it to the 240sx (the 3.6'ish... forgot the actual number... final drive would be awesome and possibly a necessity with the RB).

for brakes, you'll need to convert or adapt the soft lines.

i'm told the wheels may require spacers to fit properly... but most of the people i end up listening to about wheels are anal about offsets.

the fuel pump can be retrofitted to a 240sx. it isn't hard, but definitely not a "bolt in" thing.

finally, only certain z32 tt's (i believe 96's) had side feed 370cc injectors (blue/ purpleish topped). the rest seem to have had top feed (black top).

Sounds like I was wrong all around. My bad. So most everything would interchange if it was a N/A and not a TT! right?

Hey, you should take out his shifter. That a quick and SWEET short shifter. I know that courtesyparts of Nissan sells it as an upgrade for the 240s. You might want to try it out. If you do, can you please inform me. Thanks~!
