Z18ET turbo, Z20, Z22. These crossflow-headed engines are based on the L-series. All install into a 1200 more or less the same way.

Z18 Turbo

Turbo Power! right from the factory.

The nice thing about the Z18ET is its a factory setup, legal in most Australia states for a 1200. The downside is how available is it, including the wiring harness?
