Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Z Cars / November 2004Question about catalytic converter on 1986 300ZX
I have found a used complete exhaust system from a 1986 turbo. My friend and I try to see if we can use these parts on our 300ZX. We would like to know if the down pipe and the cat from a turbo model will fit a non turbo model? I have 1987 model, will it fit mine? > I have found a used complete exhaust system from a 1986 turbo.

Down pipe, not even close to the same. The converter probably will fit but not 100% sure it will.  SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com Understand that the bottom end like the rods and mains are different on a turbo engine and if you are going to turbocharge a normally asperated engine you stand to blow the rods out of the engine. Also, the pistons are forged in a turbo application as opposed to a normally asperated, cast piston, version. Just make sure that the engine will take the extra boost... >>I have found a used complete exhaust system from a 1986 turbo. My friend >>and I try to see if we can use these parts on our 300ZX.

I guess I may be able to use the catalytic converter and the rest but not the front. > > I have found a used complete exhaust system from a 1986 turbo.

SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com I meant the rest of the exhaust system should fit mine 1987 from the catalytic converter back. My friend want to buy front down pipe and cat for hit 1986 non-turbo model and I need the muffler. > > Thanks Steve.
