Isn't the turbo on a Z32 a T2?
T25 you mean? I'm not entirely sure what years

Hmm so they would work on a stock 280ZXT Manifold huh? Hmm well if the Z doesnt get fixed I might be getting a lot of spare parts lol

Oh on the side note of that Z32. we took the radiator out to replace it and some brown stuff was floating in the upper half of the coolant. Blown head? Blown turbo/s? The oil was drained before I got a look at it. so ya

If you really want a smaller turbo, thats known for bad oil seals and poor reliability, go ahead, brown **** is probably rust.

Z32 turbos are oil and water cooled. so you'd have to tap into the water system for that. stock s130 turbo's are only oil cooled.

AWESOME. So I got my car ready to start today. Everything was wired, no fuel leaks, spark, etc. So I start cranking then realize I had forgotten to hook up a ground. Well I try again still no dice. Then soon after the sound changes. Apparently the cam seized up and managed to shear the key or whatever from the gear at the end. So now the timing chain can spin freely on the gear and the crank, just got no valve action. Pretty rockin awesome. I'm going to put in my n/a cam that I got from shady.

I hope you didnt ding a few valves. Did you remove your cam towers to change your cam? that might be why it seized. or no oil lol
