i seen alot of stuff about people using old mercedes throttle bodies on their z's. Today while at the local wrecking yard i noticed several older mercedes there. i was wondering if any of y'all knew what year and models are best compatable with the z, i appreciate any response.

May be it's just me but why go so much trouble to go such a big TB? I think 55/60mm is big enough for N/A L engine with other minor mod. Don't you lose response with such a big TB?

use one from a nissan V6(300ZX, maxima,stanza) or one from nissan
4CYL (240SX,stanza) these bolt directly to intake. you will need a spacer and swap some parts for the linkage,openup the intake at the flange to make air flow through to the plennum with no restrictions but, it's not hard at all. look in the archives, there have been alot of info. on this mod. if you need pics or a breakdown just email me.. pallnet
