Engine work to be done by Pierre Z. NA, bored out block, high compression pistons, upgraded cam and crank, headers about 225 hp for now. I'm hoping to get the car back in 4 weeks just in time for the MSA nationals.

The decals and the rear wing.
Nismo619 said it was the 280ZX Type-R... must be a special Z

i knew about the decals and wing....didnt know that was it... i just lost all faith in the resale value system

Well, it's also rare... 1000 made. Several were used as pacecars in some races back in 79-80.

but... its just a wing an decal is my point.. theres nothing there that imo adds any value to the car. it looks alot nicer most def im not putting down the car... just the price comparison. and much more than a 100 were made.. just a 1000 had stickers and a wing put on them. lol.

Bleach

Exactly. But nobody else has those stickerz!!! Its all about the stickerz, snowy.

Snow Dude the ZXR is what got the 280zx on the map for racing, for the most part. That is the big thing about it, and it is quite rare.

Good job on the resto, looking forward to seeing you progress with it.

don't talk about it being rare... mine is rare and yet no one wants it... stupid lime green
