sharky

G'day, I have a 1981 280ZX 2+2 T-top and was wondering if anyone knows a place I can source window and door rubber seals from as well as some of the chrome trimmings on the exterior (most importantly the B-panel trim). MSA and most of the other major Z spare sellers say that they've been discontinued Would there be anyone in sydney that could custom make them? Cheers.

Hi I'm looking for some parts for an '81 280zx: [*]Left and Right Front Fenders/Arches [*]Bonnet (original or fibreglass, probably cant afford carbon unless going cheap) [*]Full interior (no seats or steering wheel needed) Or is there any place in aus that offers these parts new? I've found a few places overseas but shipping will be too much.

I was planning on doing pretty much everything myself except the engine and gearbox installation. I wanted to do a hub conversion because there's a much wider range of wheel options for 5 x 114.3 and it makes the brake upgrade easier doesn't it? Planning on taking my time enjoying the build, hopefully have it done within a year then sell my current car and use it as a daily if all goes well, then when I can afford to run two cars I'll probably turn it into a track monster

Hi everyone, I've recently had a 280zx come into my hands! My girlfriend's brother decided to give it to me as he hadn't touched it for years and is well aware of my z obsession. When he owned it he stripped it, sold the engine and had the whole car professionally painted, however he never put it back together So that's where I come in After I put it all back together the car will be fully complete besides motor and gearbox. I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do with the car but I was wondering if anyone could advise me on the costs of getting this sort of work done (and where to get it done!) : [*] Drop in an SR20DET Engine + Box - will probably need a new drive shaft too? (Is an RB engine easier/cheaper?) [*]Install Limited Slip Diff [*]Refurbish Targa Roof [*]Hub and brake conversion, from perhaps an R33 GTR or Spec R Silvia?? [*]Full suspension setup (i.e. coilovers, strut braces, sway bars etc) [*]Replacing all rubber seals (not sure if the whole car needs to be done) Thanks for any help! Glad to be a part of this community
