Just to help you out, go to xenons130.com, go to reference link and download your year model repair manual, it should really help a lot if you can't buy a chilton book or haynes. Great deal btw, i just got mine about a month ago now, its a 1983 non turbo 5 speed manual 2 seater. I got it for $400 and only has 109k miles on it! Maybe that $50 you payed got u the turbo with it.

Copy Paste. You have the original 280ZXT copy and paste it into the NA. It's as easy a swap as it can get. It's not like you're swaping it into a '94 Toyota Forerunner.... Make sure you are going to clear the steering rack - you might have to swap that in. It will be a big job your first time with no experience or knowledge but it's very doable.

wheres the pictures of this 280ZXT.. i wanna see how bad the rust is first before you start chopping it up.. you might just be better off keeping the ZXT and tossing your NA...
not to sound mean, but from reading all your post i really don't think you have the basic knowledge or understanding of the car to take on such a project.

Yeah I haven't had a look under it yet but it dose looks ok it needs a intake /exhaust gasket and it can't take off at all
And it looks like the bondoed over some rust
