1979ZED

sorry if this is a stupid question but what's the front apron? Has someone got a picture?

i'm wanting to turbo the 280 which is why I bought the heads.

Hey Guys, I've got a P90 head off a patrol. My question is, will the cam need to be changed to suit a 280zx bottom end?

Thanks. You're a champ!

Hi All, Does anyone know where you can get 280zx body kits in Australia. I've been looking all over the place and it seems they are quite rare and the only real option would be to import them.

It's different which is what strikes me. Probably be a lot of work to get the S30 nose to fit though i'd imagine, but i'm no expert.

Hi Guys, I found this 280zx on ebay.uk for sale and I was just wondering what is the front kit on this? I really like it. Cheers

Well my R34 that I just sold was running 268rwkw but i'm not chasing that sort of power with this car. I want this car to be a restoration project, but at the same time give the car a bit of power to zip around with. 150rwkw would be plenty for this project. I was thinking along the lines of a p90 head on my existing block and maybe chanding the pistons over to the turbo pistons as well. Obviously I would need stronger injectors as well as fuel pump. What about ECU. Do you guys go aftermarket? What type? Thanks for the help. You guys on this forum really know what you're on about and I have found a lot of info for many different things I want to do.

i did try searching, but couldn't find exactly what I was after. Iwant to know if I can/need to put a turbo motor head onto the non turbo bottom and what bottom end internals should I use. Will the turbo engine bottom end internals suit? What are the differences etc.

Hi Guys, I am a newby here. I love Nissans and have had 300zx, R34 skyline, s13 silvia, s14 silvias etc since i was 18. Approaching my 30s now I decided it's time to restore one of these great built cars and this lead me to buy a 1979 Datsun 280zx to restore. It's a Non turbo auto and i want to rebuild the engine into a turbo. I want to keep the original engine numbers so would like to re-use the existing block. I want to rebuild the entire engine anyway, but what will I need to change to turbo it. Would I just purchase parts for the L28ET? Would these parts fit straight in? I will eventually be doing a manual conversion also, but that's a job for another day. Thanks for the help in advance. Deano
