Why is this in the Z32 forum if it's an S130 question?

Moved to 280zx Performance section.

To answer your question: No, it will not work.

Why?

#1: The 280zx L28ET isn't a Honda VTEC engine.
#2: VAFC's / SAFC's / VPC's require a MAF style efi system. They will not work correctly w/ an AFM.

You could upgrade to a Z31T ecu & maf, then use a SAFC. Lifegrddude has a write-up on that.

is it worth spending $100 on something you can't put on your motor... idk maybe you should think about that....

unless you a good friend who would buy it for $100 then sell it for $150

Last I checked the VG30DE isn't a Honda motor either... but who knows... maybe it will work.
