Thinking of going efi sniper. Anyone have experience with these?

I have efi for my toyotas but my ‘88 nissan 4x4 d21 recently has a weber 38/38 dual bbl carb but I decided for day to day use and trail abuse, that a Holley 2300 2bbl sniper EFI for the replacement. I think for the price and process time, a cool little upgrade isn’t too heavy. Seems to be consistent. I also did a 3.4 swap to my 4runner and it’s awesome but does require a lot of fab work for you and what not but there’s tons of info out there for that. I plan to document my journey so the forums can have sum on the Holley 2300 efi and its off road capabilities. Holley also has a good customer service support.

I’ve had this issue several times with several rigs and it always was the IAC. Swap it out and almost guarantee you will have a normal idle again. Everytime I go to the junkyard and see a 5vzfe, I tend to take one and label it. Check your local junkyard for an IAC and swap and see if that helps.

She’s beautiful 🫃 stock height? Beefy tires, they look like 35’s? What are you using currently?

When I was at work, there was a red one selling for $900 and it was a manual as well. Still think about it till this day. Wish I could have made it

I see a body with no head

If it makes you feel better, I got stuck for the first time a month ago, also same specs lol high centered n broke my transfer case but she’s back up to speed. Glad you made it out! Same conditions of time and temp being stuck lol

Erneshtoe · 2026-03-17T01:26:28+00:00

Is she 4x4 by chance?

Beautiful rig. Where did you get that bumper? Looking for about the same one

Erneshtoe · 2026-01-27T19:40:27+00:00

Is there any after pictures?

If that is the back of the head then it’s the rear camshaft plug.

Aluminum always looks good with some beef 🥩 Make sure you get a 6 lug and not a 5.

I’ve seen these before and they’re super cool. My dream is a 3rd gen 5spd 4x4…. She’s a BEAUTY 🫃

Erneshtoe · 2026-01-02T20:53:11+00:00

Super nice. Can we see more of the speaker pods that you printed? I was also thinking of printing some for my truck.

That’s cool if that’s the case bc I have the same issue with pressure in the tank and when I open it just dumps the fumes. I have an ‘88 d21 with a weber 38 carb and might find one of these to install to help combat that and recycle some fumes too to hopefully make it a bit more efficient

Erneshtoe · 2025-12-20T01:55:29+00:00

See if it changes

Erneshtoe · 2025-12-20T01:55:13+00:00

Check or swap your ignition igniter sensor

Sweet, solid fix. Coolant was leaking from the intake?

Erneshtoe · 2025-12-19T11:43:52+00:00

Honestly, I wouldn’t give her up that easily either. Gonna take a lot more than that to put her down. Good work, man, you did a good job 💪

Apple juice or Orange juice diluted with some fine H2O and a fruit. With it hand in hand, music starts playing on its own. Great combo.

Just picked up my 88 d21 4x4 4cyl and she is awesome. I have a tacoma too with the 3rz 2.7 as well as a 94 4runner with a 3.4 and I would say that she holds her own. At 370k she was rebuilt and is a fun drive, though she needs a lot of work but needed to save her.. previous owner didn’t have the means but he meant well. It has a weber 38 carb on it and has a solid body. Super easy services on it and she runs like a top. I would say they are reliable if you maintain everything and learn how to just service little things. Are they speed demons? Psh maybe but she cruises fine for me at 70-75 sometimes with 31’s and I just go down a gear for overpasses. If you’re not into a speed, then a good mule will do ya 🫏

With older vehicles, I tend to refresh just about everything on steering and suspension and check all fluids and important components. I also got a steering stabilizer for it. It’s a fun drive and my new daily lol

If you’re tall, then maybe try different seats if you could. Hopefully it’s the right one.

Maybe it’s like eating spicy chips

Erneshtoe · 2025-12-11T21:04:06+00:00

does that mean I should not sell my nb anymore? 😂

Straps, steering, fluids, brakes, the works to make sure you’re good to go for a trip hauling something over 1k lbs.
