Hi guys. I'm really pleased to se that a zx forum is still alive. Last week i purchased a 81 280zx 2+2. And I've gone completely crazy ordering stuff from ebay and different places. The car is pretty good, some rust in different places. The odometer shows 190k km , and the engine sounds like a cat purring. I love it. I have earlier been a owner of two z32's one us spec and one euro spec (2+2) , but this will be much better since its a na and I plan to use it only as a cruiser.

Some pictures

 

Welcome to ZDriver! And yowsa that's a clean S130!!! I love the Euro spec!

 

Nice 280!!!

 

Welcome to the forum! Nice looking car

I thought the euro spec didn't have the bumperettes on the bumpers?

 

But notice the split clear/amber turn signals, that's def. a eurospec/jdm option.

 

Its a us spec, but the turn signals have been changed in order to get the registration here in europe.

 

Or something like that lol.

I like those turn signals, anything special need to be done so they work?

 

No, nothing, exept theres a t10 bulb in the white part thats a parkinglight. Drill, bulbholder and a bulb, congrats!

I like the us version of the lensglass better

 

Wow, that's a really nice Z! Nice purchase!

 

Update

 

Time for a small update, changed my s130 seats for some z32's instead.

Driversseat all electric, and fits like a charm. Next up is a small stereo upgrade. Changed my idler arm for the upgraded version instead. Gonna try to get my norwegian licenseplates asap

 

 

 

S30 spoiler adapted and mounted

 

Do you know if it said Nissan on the back from the factory, or if it was added later? Vey nice car.

 

I have no clue... I found the decal inside the trunk, and some tape was left on the trunk.. So I just added a new fixer and put it back where it was..

 

Thought i'd share some new photos with you.
The car is now road redy and works like a charm.

Lookin good. I cant lie, I am kinda jealous. How much adapting did it take to get the S30 wing to fit?

 

Not much, just had to gri d off a little on the middle. And it went straight on.
