not sure abotu nissan but a while ago quite a few people were using rover (620?) turbo inlets as i think they're supposed to be a pretty close match.

How does it make it better for cossie management?

The bore spacing is totally different so no way it will fit without cutting it all up and totally re-welding it.

I could convert your stock manifold to run a cossie throttle body if you like or even totally fabricate you a new plenum?

Who is doing your cossie management conversion? Have you looked at the alternatives?

Use the Rover Turbo inlet.

As said the cosworth inlet has a huge spacing between the ports when compared to newer motors.
