your car != Z31

your TB = 2 holes
KA24 TB = 1 hole
VG30E (Z31) = 1 hole

You didn't even get it right about the TB for a Z31. FYI the bigger direct replacement TB for a z31 should be one out of a Nissan Stanza with a KA24E not KA24de out of a 240sx.

Yeah, I already looked at that... I've got a KA24DE motor in my 02 Frontier... honestly, just get it port and polished. Someone made a how-to about it. I just can't remember the site.
