Welcome to ZDriver and to owning a 280zxt! 
We have lots of pics posted here... check this:

The coil bracket must be grounded for spark. The cylinder w/ wires on each end is an RF Condenser to stop radio interference... the car will run fine without it.
Also, feel free to buy a Haynes manual, or download the FSM from: www.xenons130.com/reference

This is how you reply with such fashion...
Fix the spelling, don't criticize him for it. Only I am allowed to do that 
Hello, I just got an 81' turbo for 400 bucks, but it doesn't start, the wires for the coil and con modual are all jacked up, can someone get a pic of those wires? There is also a small cylinder that has a wire coming out of each end that bolts under the bracket that holds the coil down, and its not hooked to anything. I have searched, and have gone over the FSM wiring diagrams and can't understand the wiring to my coil. Please Z Gods, help me!

Merged threads. Check page EF-45 of the 81 supplement. 
Here's another pic for you...
Yellow (trigger) & Black w/ white stripe (+12v power) go to ignitor. Out of ignitor the blue goes to negative on coil, black goes to positive. Blue splitter from negative goes to other blue wire (tach signal).
And that's it...
