Hi Carl,

Hi Larry:

Yes, they are correct. In 75/76 both the manual and automatic trans cars had the R200. Only the 77/78 280's with the A/T had the R180's. Of course that was followed by the 280ZX's in 79 having the R180's etc.

The listing at this URL has been pretty well reviewed/approved by hundreds of our members... so we believe it reflects reality.
