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.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
