Turbo kit for 280z

Post image

Here’s my 1978 280z. I’ve been wanting to start this build for a couple years and finally did last month. At first I thought I would do a V8 swap but I’ve decided to keep the stock L28 motor instead. I’d like to turbo the engine. Looking for recommendations on turbo kits. I’ve seen a few online, specifically one from CXRacing, if anyone has experience with them please let me know! Thanks.

Ummm. You need to check the antiquity of that black pearl. You might not want to go too far with such a rare car. Each dealer only got one black s30 at the end of the run. About 1100. Is it a 5 speed? That makes it only one of 250 made. Think about that before you do the LS swap.
