If you're interested in my car please contact me! I'm also interested in trades for parts (S30) or possibly other cars. I am interested in 4x4 Toyota pickups or 4runners, OR Datsun/Nissan pickups (Must be 4x4). Make me an offer, and just talk with me. Worst I can say is no. My Datsun 280zx Turbo is up for sale! This car has been my project for a while now, and has had a lot of money put into it. I need to sell it as I have just picked up a 240z and I no longer have the time to devote to this car. It does need some work, hence the low price. I know what the components in this car are worth, and if you can fix it or can use the components(For a swap or otherwise), you're getting this 280zxt for a steal. Nearly everything in the drivetrain has been replaced, rebuilt, or upgraded, including the engine and turbo. It has been a California car all its life and has minimal rust, but there are some small spots. Everything I have found has been on the body, and absolutely nothing on the frame. It is a salvage title unfortunately, though I had even forgotten that. There is no frame damage, and insurance companies like to do this to old cars. I have been underneath the car more times than I can count and there is nothing wrong with it. There are some dents and body damage, but it is 30+ years old at this point and the price reflects that. Pictures of said damage included. Ebay only allows me to post 4 pictures on here(For free), but here is a link to my photobucket with plenty more:It does drive almost flawlessly as is. But at idle there is a very slight roughness. My guess is the O2 sensor as I was getting no reading from it with my multimeter. Nearly everything mechanical and sensor wise has been replaced though, see the list below. I will give the most accurate description of the car I can. So here's a list of the work done on the car:All of these are within ~13,000 milesComplete Bottom/Top End of Engine RebuiltLow Mileage T-5 Manual Transmission swapped inNew Brute Power Clutch and FlywheelNew Water PumpNew AlternatorNew NGK BPR7ES-11 Spark PlugsNew NGK Spark Plug WiresNew Distributor Cap/RotorNew Valve Cover GasketNew Fuel Pressure RegulatorNew 3-Wire O2 SensorNew Cylinder Head Temperature SensorReplaced Vacuum and Fuel Lines/filterNew Fuel PumpNew Thermostat SensorReplaced all Fluids recently including Castrol High Performance Synthetic oil at change ~500 miles agoNew Starter MotorNew Fuel Injector SetFactory Rebuilt MAFAll Exhaust Gaskets ReplacedNew Intake/Exhaust Manifold GasketHere's a List of UPGRADES done to the car:R200 OBX Helical Type LSD New T3/T4 Hybrid TurboNew Larger 3 Core Aluminum RadiatorUpgraded to 300zx Ignition CoilNew Poly Suspension Bushings all aroundDrilled and Slotted Brake Rotors w/ Semi-Metallic padsStainless Steel Brake LinesNew Tokico HP Struts all aroundNew Magnaflow Muffler - Not overly loud and has a great tone300ZXT ECU SwapGreddy Profec B Electronic Boost ControllerRare 120mph Speedo Swapped inThe bad:Still on the factory paint job and has a few dents.Fuel pump is wired up to a switch at the moment, could be good or bad depending on how you look at it, I like it.The trunk interior isn't in the best condition, however the front is in very good condition.This car is ready for more boost! All you need is a front mount intercooler and some bigger injectors. Everything else is 100% ready to go. It's also the perfect candidate for a swap into your s30, a rebuilt engine w/ upgraded turbo, low mileage T-5, new helical LSD for a good price. The rest of the car could easily be parted/sold and make your swap cheap. I simply don't have the time.Aside from the idle, the car pulls fantastically through the rev range. The 300zx ECU swap was a great upgrade from the stock management system. The upgraded turbo spools way faster than stock, and these upgrades alone (Running 10-12lbs of boost) makes the car significantly faster and more fun to drive. Coupled with the HLSD, and all of the new suspension bits this thing can take a corner much better than stock as well. As you can see in the photos, I have the glove box removed currently. I have all of the parts for it bagged and I will gladly reinstall it if you wish. Also, underneath the radio you'll see a hole, that is where the Greddy Electronic Boost controller is located. I currently have that removed due to smog, but it WILL be included with the car. This car comes with a couple of extra parts as well if you want them, I will discuss this with the buyer based on the price. (2nd Refurbed MAF ~$250, High Flow Walbro Fuel Pump, a second set of Turbo wheels w/ nearly NEW Falken tires ~$400 etc etc). Please click this link to go to my photbucket album and take a look at my car, Ebay will only allow me to post 4 pictures free: If you have any questions whatsoever, please feel free to call or text me at (530) 919-9798 (Leave a voicemail if no answer, bad cell service at home) or contact me through ebay and I will be glad to answer them to the best of my ability. I can also take more pictures of specific areas if you wish! The car is also for sale locally, and I reserve the right to end the auction early if I reach an agreement outside of ebay. You CAN drive the car home if you wish, however it may be good to have a truck to bring that extra set of wheels with you. Also, if you are local, we can definitely arrange for you to come see the car.
