280zx Diff
« on: January 10, 2012, 11:13:54 AM »
I can't seem to find it in search....

Does anyone know the code for the r200 diff on the 280zx? I'm not quite sure if its a r200 or a r180 :/

I have 3 280zx, 2 are 1979 manual 2+2 and the other is a 1982 manual 2+2. I've search other websites and it comes down as listed as it came with r200 for those years. I'm looking to get a kaaz LSD or something generic for drifting and time attack... I don't really want to go locker diff.

Any help is appreciated

They had both fitted, dunno when and on what, easiest is crawl under it, and measure the width f the back plare where the fill and drain plugs go, check allyours, narrow? Is r180 etc.

Stew Wilkins out at Mulgrave can source KAAZ although you are hetter off getting a regular Nissan Clutch pack limo, as a few who have used the kaaz when driven at near limits, have had them release with violent results, and in couple cases car damage.

If chading a r200 i have a complete limo one in 3.9 ratio, they are easy to swap hemispheres over into your existing.
Your n Syd, so it'd be eastern creek or wakefield, depending on if you like running at 7000 rpm, use a 4.4, to be safe try to find a 4.1, the 3.9 will be safe for rpms.
I just race old datsuns:
Group S Historic 280Z ( not a zx but a USA 280z)
Group O/T Historic Datsun Sports 2000
Group G Datsun 120y  with FJ24 fitted( ex G. Fury)
Marque Sports Datsun Fairlady 1966 -SR20DET
