I have an 87 hardbody and I know the cab dimensions are diffent than your 720, but I have a set of approx 1987 nissan 300zx seats in my hardbody. They arent light by todays standards, but they are a lot lighter than doing a captain chair swap out of a w21 pathfinder. Also if you take out the headrests, you shave about 6.5lb off of each seat and they tuck beautifully under the seal for the back window which gives you a lot of extra legroom. My brother is 6'3" and he fits in just fine. also at least with my truck the brackets from the 300 seats bolt right up to the factory bench holes on both sides. you do have to add extra holes on the inside of each seat because the bench only has a pair of holes on each side but all in all a painless install that still looks factory, you can also take a w21 pathfinder console and it tucks right in between the seatsand you have cupholders and the console is really light. Like I said I know the two models are slightly different but I hope this information was helpful to you.

one place that i can recommend for parts for both 2 and 4wd z24 motors is 4x4parts.com, they have a decent inventory of parts for hardbody 720 and frontier parts. They offer a camshaft for the z24i that will work with the stock valve train and reports an average gain of 10-15%. Like everyone on here is telling you though with the head design of the z its not going to allow for massive gains w/o going forced induction... the L head is going to be a practically zero mod bolt for bolt swap, if you have difficulty coming up with the head u can improve the performance marginally especially in that small of a truck you will have a blast. gasket matching the head on both sides, the cam good plugs and ignition components will make nominal power gains, and a header may net u 1 or 2 hp but it will make the truck sound very nice when mated to a good exhaust system, you can also get computer upgrades from there as well. they may only get you 10hp or so but in a truck that only stocks @106 thats a pretty intense gain comparitively speaking.
