Surly_Z Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 did the rear 1/4 windows in the 260z open? I just found this beautiful 260z on ebay here http://cgi.ebay.com.au/1978-Datsun-260Z-FAIRLADY-Silver-Blue-5sp-M-2D-COUPE_W0QQitemZ260441120338QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Cars?hash=item3ca3801e52&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A1|66%3A2|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50 And noticed that the they were open. Note that I've never been in a 2+2, so this may be a silly question/observation... Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted July 5, 2009 Moderators Posted July 5, 2009 They just open an inch or two via a lever mechanism. Wish the 240Z did too! Quote
RBZ 260 Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 gee that one nice clean 2+2. yeah the 1/4 windows open though i hardly ever doo open them. its probably more for comfort of back passengers. Quote
garvice Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 You get quite a bit of air movement through them actually. Living in brisbane I open them quite often in summer. Quote
S30Mike Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 Jeez thats a beautiful car.. love the white wall tyres haha. why the heck is it EFI though? cant be original. Quote
reverendzed Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 it might be the FI fairlady that some imported from japan...I may be totally wrong but this is what I heard some time ago. Rev. Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted July 5, 2009 Moderators Posted July 5, 2009 That EFI is from the factory. I've seen it only in one other zed here. I think he may be a member on here..he's name is Stavros with an Orange/red 2+2. Last time I saw it he was installing a RB26DETT and had 17" Simmons like I had but polished. That zed has some different brackets and options fitted that I haven't seen in other zeds; like the ignition module for the distributor mounted on the passenger side kick panel, and the factory fitted EFI. Dash had some other warning lights and of course the Fairlady badges. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted July 5, 2009 Administrators Posted July 5, 2009 Fairlady Zeds did have Fuel Injection in the S30 series. http://datsun-240z-blog.viczcar.com/s30-zcar-chassis-prefix.html # S130 - Nissan Fairlady Z Fitted with an L20E engine and injected. # GS130 - Nissan Fairlady Z 2 by 2 Fitted with an L20E engine. Only problem is that it would be an L20 engine and not an L28. Think of it as the 280z of the JDM market. Quote

Haha, yep if you have never been in a 260z it would be quite a surprise. I must say that 2+2 on Ebay makes me miss my 2+2. Its been a long time since I've seen a 2+2 that clean. Quote
