300zx twin turbo manifolds bolt to 370z block?

I was just wondering if there was any way possible to bolt the turbo manifolds off of the 300zx to the vq37 370z motor. I have old turbos and manifolds

Default 300zx twin turbo manifolds bolt to 370z block?

I was just wondering if there was any way possible to bolt the turbo manifolds off of the 300zx to the vq37 370z motor. I have old turbos and manifolds laying around from old 300 so I was looking to maybe get into a project. Thank you for any input!!

how is that not enough flow?

if its 1.7in ID than its the same size as all aftermarket headers for the 370z, only question would be if it fits or not

Stock 370Z headers are better designed

agreed that they may be better designed but the whole point here is being able to cheaply bolt up a manifold that is already set up for turbos

A good start would be to compare the bolt pattern of the gaskets for the manifolds, both 300ZX and 370z. That can be done online with just some pictures. A better way to do it would also to be to purchase both gaskets, and see what's what.

what does that have anything to do with turbo manifolds?

look at the GTM turbo manifolds, they look similar to the 300zx ones(piping design at least GTM turbo manifolds are not tubular)
