Throttle body mod?

Search is down, so I have to ask: Will a 240SX TB work, or do I need to track down a Stanza? I ask because Overboost did an article on swapping one into the 300ZX and this doesn't look much like my TB.

I don't know for sure on what throttle to use, but that picture has the cable throttle body. If a 240SX (1991+) doesnt' work, you might look into the 93-97 Altima with an auto. Those had about 5mm more than the 5-speed altima throttle. They are also cable pulled. The second cable I think is only for the CC.

The 12-valve (89-90) 240SX has the linkage throttle body just like a 280Z/280ZX. But, if that happens to have the same throttle position switch that that you have on your Maxima, it may work fine. you'll just have to figure out how to hook up the throttle linkage to your car's setup.
