Is this a right hooker, if so there should be more out there, before we look at owner import and dealer import. Nissan did one of those market evaluation packages out of Melbourne. I know of two of these on the east coast, one is very prominant in the Sydney basin.

cheers

I know countries get different models at different times, but that looks to me like a ZX. This is probably no big deal-after all, the car looks great, just don't let them tell you that it's something it isn't and try to charge you more for it.

That is a very early ZX- I'm positive, mine is HS130 150591 from April, 79; that one is HS130 001395! I'd buy it if I could!

In Japan the first ie 78/79 (and like this one early build numbers) were marketed as Fairlady 280z (even though most of us think/know them as a ZX, ie S130 body style)

I can't believe you guys in Australia did not get these models (ie 2 seater) - what was Nissan thinking not bringing these in themselves, we got a few of these NZ new and most are like this one JDM imports during the 80's/early 90's.

I once owned one as a daily driver - like many Zed I have owned over the years - should never have sold it.

A 280ZX in the USA/ Austrailia was known as a Fairlady 280Z in Japan. Same for the 300Z(X) i believe.

This is a Japanese second hand import that was imported to Austrailia in the mid ot late 80's. Thats why they are calling it a 280Z. Theres was no such thing as a 280ZX in the Japanese market.

Thats why i put the chassis code in (S130) so people would know it wasnt the S30 280Z.
