December 15, 20186 yr comment_563838 @zbert1 I don't have the answer to your question but the V.I.N. may help narrow it down if someone does know of an "in-between" regulator. Just did a bit of research. Z Car Source has window regulators. They list a regulator for years 74-76 and a different one for 77-78.

December 15, 20186 yr comment_563839 From the online parts catalog for 260Z/280Z: RH 80700-N3400 to 7607, superseded by 80700-N4400 eff. 7608 LH 80701-N3400 to 7607, superseded by 80700-N4400 eff. 7608 The comment by @Mark Maras is spot on regarding the part # change You are correct that the 240Z regulators are a different P/N. BTW - my limited experience with regulators shows the P/N is usually stamped on the part.

December 16, 20186 yr comment_563841 There's still a question in my mind if the early 260 regulators were the same as the late 260. Does anyone know if the regulator change came with the forward relocation of the inside door lock?

Mark, The catalog shows no changes to regulators, locks, or other parts during the switch from early to later 260Z: http://www.carpartsmanual.com/datsuns30/Datsun-Z-Index/Body-260Z-280Z/2-Seater/Door-Lock-Regulator-Handle Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/61261-window-regulator/#findComment-563842 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My early 260Z has the same regulator used in the lates and '75-'76 280Z. Then there was another door change with the '77-'78 and the regulator changed again...
