Hi all. My girl friend has a old 1978 c210 :) . she has had it for many years and had to put a new motor in it, it now has a l28 motor in it, from the numbers in the block and head it seems that the motor come from a 1983 280zx turbo. (thats just from the info i found on the net) I have all the efi stuff like inlet manifold, ecu, ect. i have been doing some thinking and want to hook the efi up and maybe put a turbo on it. any one here know any thing about hooking up the efi and where i could look to find turbo manifold?

Thanks.

Hi, I have a good mate with a turbo'ed L20 C210, and it goes like the clappers. There was a turbo manifold on ebay this week, and they come up on the US ebay regularly as well. You will probably get the best turbo L28 advice from Ghostrider, he is in the middle of building one now.

Good luck with it, and let us know how it works out.

Hi, Thanks, I found that site last night and was having a bit of a read,

Im not sure i really under stand what they said to do, (R = Red = pin 5 from fuseable link to the dropping resistor power to injectors.

Y/L= Yellow blue power from pin 13 on the computer to pull relay in on fuel pump relay then black to earth.

L = Blue = pin 4 from a fuseable link to through the efi relay to pin 27 on the computer when the relay is activated by ignition on.

B/Y = Black Yellow = pin 2 from ignition switch start through to cold start valve and thermite switch then to computer pin 26.

B/W = Black White = pin 1 ignition switch run to ic ignition unit and coil.)

I will have a look today and see what i can work out.

and this

and these pictures should help

The second picture shows how I wired my late model MR30 EFI, it has a rectangle plug, where as the diagram shows the earlier MR30 EFI (using a square plug)

So i need to get the fues box from the r30 with the fuel pump relay and efi relay and fues block?

Yes it would help

It could be done without it, but I used it to make it easier, and since I had a MR30 as a donor, I could use all the bits I needed.

    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
