If I'm not mistaken GT4 does have a 280ZX. It's the '78 Fairlady 280Z (S130), they got the S130 right, but as far as a '78, maybe they got that wrong. But there is a 280ZX.

Attached is the 280ZX I have on GT4

Its the early Japanese version. They do the yearing of the cars different over there. So while it was a 78 there the same car would've been a 79 here in the states. They didnt use the designation '280zx' in Japan, it was just the "FairladyZ' in most instances. The 2.8 liter cars were the 'Fairlady 280Z'. So for all practical purposes, that is indeed what we in the states would call a 280zx.

Thanks...they have this photo shoot and drive on there it's pretty cool. You then can download it to a flash drive and put it as a desktop wallpaper. I got bored one day and now I have a 512MB flash drive of GT4 pics. You can do slide shows and everything. GT4 far exceeded my expectations.

Ha ha SHADY280...yeah I wish there was a turbo S130 on the game, you can put nitrous, just not the same, right?

the they have the 240zx funny they called it the zx instead of the Z.
Motor swap the Rb26dett into and you wont care what they call it.
so much fun .you can ALSO swap in the sr20det , or just tune the L-6
and get it burly .lots of fun check it out .

I saw that game and thought about it, so I may get it along with NFS: Carbon

JUST ADDED: I just saw Forza is available at Best Buy for $20 on a 2 day sale! So I know where I'm going right after class in a few hours!

cheats..... ok you play the game normal and start another profile as cheats...othewise if you beat teh game with cheats no one respects you....so there for the cheat one is to see what you can do and how to best spend your money for the real game.

Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 has the 280ZX 2+2 in it. One of the front bumpers you can put on it actually looks really good, though I've never seen anything like it in real life (adds large round foglights to the lower front). Another interesting thing you can do with that game is engine swaps; so you could swap in a turbo I-4, NA VA, Turbo V8, Rotary, etc.

my s130 on gt4 has a rice wing tho, i know its gay, but it adds down force, and i got rims on it that look like my boyds too i can beat a new viper at el capitan no problem and lap him in 6. yes you can nitrous, but no turbo.
