My boss picked one up thats been sitting for 20 years, its in pretty good shape, gold, 5 speed everything is original on it what from i see, we had it running today and the rear main seal went lol, im just looking for some information on the car really nothing specfic maybe a few good photos to inspire him to build it up for the track a little bit.

anyone know a good place for info on these cars?

i highly recommend hybridz.org
is it an early (thin front and rear bumper) or late (fat front and rear bumper) 260z?

the earlier the model, the lighter the car is.

honestly you need to read up on hybridz. that forum has everything you could possibly want to know about these cars. search is your friend

RedStage · 01-09-2009, 05:28 PM

my advice....look for rust.
most common spots are floor pans and around the hatch.
But search hybridz....was a great site for the 280Z when I had it.

ya, 240 and 260z have r180's in em, 280z's have r200 3.54 open diffs.

i personally like the 280zx's r200 because it's a 3.9 gear ratio, only second to the hard to find 88 300zx turbo 3.7 vlsd r200

and i concur, www.hybridz.org is a great site, i'm a member there as well
