Hi, Fever
Sorry mate Skyline do not have L28ET more like
RB20 something or other twin cam. Its a straight six may-
be thats what you mean. Looking for something thats not
going to need any bracket changes thats going to bolt
straight in.

Just found a L20 turbo I am going to look at going to check
exhaust manifold will fit on to my L28ET if so I could be in
business and have a spare motor. $1495 was the price on
it. Not bad considering its $800 to have a turbo manifold
custom made to fit.

Just scored a pretty good jod so the turbo's going back in
going to get the pros to put her in as I here if its not done
right you might as well be burning your money.

Thanks for your input mate!! Be joining the Turbo Zeds soon!

If you are from Australia, didn't the Skylines have L motors till 1985? I had one when I was in Okinawa that was a L20ET 1985 Skyline. That is the same manifold as the L28, right, Just asking.

Patrols had an LD28ET .... diesel motor

Early 80's skylines came with a fuel injected L24E
There was a special R30 Skyline that came with an L20ET
The first turbo L motor to appear in production was the late 70's skylines with the L20ET (different to the above one).
from about '84 i think, the skylines then moved to a red top (R32 Skyline engine is silver top ... way better!) RB20DET (DOHC 24 valve 2.0L straight 6 turbo) with NICS (Nissan Induction Control System .. it sucked) this motor also came delivered in the 200ZR Z31

there was a specially edition skyline DR30 that came with an FJ20ET(DOHC 2.0L 4cyl bullet proof) mid - late 80's i think

if you can get some 200ZR engine mounts then you can bolt the RB20DET onto your existing engine mounts... the gearbox mount can be reveresed and then it fits the RB gearbox aswell ....


The manifolds off the L20ET will fit the other L heads but dont forget about injectors and ecu mappings ...
