I believe the pin outs might be slightly different. For the price you are going to spend on the swap it might cheaper to buy one that is already twin turboed and not N/A. Just my opinion.

probally better off sticking to a honda dude cuz from ur profile pict looks like ur a hack job

I haven't done any research on this motor in a long time but if I remember correctly here are some problems and differences:
The main engine harness is different between the TT and the NA. I believe you can get around the differences if you use a boost controller because the wiring difference is for boost control solenoids.
You can use a NA ECU but it won't work right with the TT so make sure to get a TT ECU
I believe it is also a lot easier if you use a TT engine harness with a TT swap

So the moral of the story is if you are going to do the swap make sure to swap everything: Engine, main harness and ECU. I don't know if this helps. Good Luck

buy a subaru......

jeremy im not gonna buy a suby lol
an idk if im gonna keep it jus turn around an sell it possibly
an thanks for the hack job comment means alot
an i can get the na swap for cheap so that be the better way to go an turn an sell the car that way an make some money off it at least an yes sprock that actually helped a lil bit

and does any one kno where to find one of these motors prob the non turboed in town or close by that isnt a crap ton of money ? by chance at all ?

Laramy is right on, you'd want the engine, harness and ECU to do the swap. I believe but not 100% that the NA fuel pump also flows a lot less than the tt unit so you may want to consider at least installing a walbro if not the TT FP. 300zx is a fun car NA is ideal but like you said i'm sure you could slide an NA engine back in for DIRT cheap drive it for a bit and sell it for some extra $$$

Good luck in your first nissan, you know once you've ventured into the RWD world you'll never feel the same about the FWD cars again!

yea thats wht i been hearin once u go awd or rwd u think differ bout the fwd cars but well see i may put it up for sale right now an see if any one would wanna buy it but if not ill get it running an then like ya said drive it then sell it later

I bet you could make a nice chunk of change if you throw in the NA engine and clean it up as much as possible. A nice clean red sports car under the 5k range with spring around the corner, easy money. Good find on that one!

thanks an i mat do that jus put the na motor in an sell it to get some extra cash but well see how it goes its for sale now an jus seein wht i can get an all

ya my friend sean might have a na engine for sale but idk if he's got his tt swap done in his 300zx done yet its not a easy swap to tt you have to change quite a bit of stuff and yea you would need a different fuel pump to find those turbo's the right mixture of fuel and air but good luck

its on criagslist for sale soo well see how that goes

blah blah im pretty proud of my car actaully from how from its come when it was when i bought
