Z18 Turbo
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?
Swap Notes
Z-series is the 2nd generation of the L-series engine. So oil pans and mounting is the same as fitting an L-series engine.
Also see L-series Engine Swap crossmember, sump sections.
Transmission
Z-series uses the same transmissions as the KA-series engines. The bolt pattern is the same as the L-series but the lean is different.
See Transmission section of KA Engine Swap
