Nice 280zx man, and the '80's were the shiz! '90's sucked, and '70's was great. Anyway here is my analysis for you

240z-280z < 280zx
240z-280z < 280zxt

Word of advice....stop bashing 280zx's in a 280zx forum. If you want to bash them, go do it in the 240z,260z,280z forums. You wouldn't like it, if we went over there, and started bashing the S30s, in that particular forum would you? I am sick of the slandering of the 280zx's. So quit doing it here.. Thank you.

Here are a couple of pics of the hood. As you can see, it is quiet different from the original factory hood. It's for sale to anyone who wants it. Make an offer. Also is a pic of the custom manifold to fit the Holley 4 barrel carburetor mentioned earlier.

The cancer is all over; from the colon to breast to brain. The one great thing about her is....she sign a donor card so the others from her generation of species may live longer!

thats a fg cowl hood. i have one and love it. i think that would be a good car to make into a beast. nothing like taking it down to nothing and starting fresh. if i had space i would do another one in a heart beat.

grab some sheet metal and think of something to creat for fun and go to town. (get some pointers or even lessons but practice makes perfect, no sense in making something that you need to do your first experiment after all)

S130 has a more flowing overall shape than the S30, only some of the add on detail lets it down, not the overall shape. But no matter what you do to the S30 it still has that flat slab sided look from the sides of the windscreen back along the windows, S130 is much better there.

^^^ Man... that makes me miss the days of my bone stock Z... when the interior was all put together and I could drive it around town normally. Now when I get in it, I turn into Dr Jekyll.

It was sorta like that one, but the color was a little darker and it was a two seater. I loved that car!
