Well, mine is a 78 California car and it has no oxygen sensor. Nor was I able to find one on the microfiche or in the FSM.

The thread is three years old. The kid that posted the question had some kind of hack job oxygen sensor that was installed in the exhaust pipe behind the catalitic converter for whatever reason. And he possesed some misinformation. Nissan definately never put them there on any S30 or S130. On the S130, it was in the exhaust manifold. Nissan actually called it an 'exhaust gas sensor'. There is no provision in the pre-79 ECU to operate one. He had all kinds of other problems with the car and I'm not sure he ever worked them out since he hasn't posted here in over two years. But you're right. No sensor on a 280Z no matter what year or state.
