Posted January 14, 200421 yr comment_64293 Hey Allposting this for a friend who's had a bit of an accident with his Z.He's wondering if the 280z or 280zx bonnet, qtr panels or nose cones will go on to a 260z 2+2.. and if so, would they look normal?I know the 280zx is more boxy but I'm not sure how much this is apparent in the qtrs and nose cones!Any help on 280z or 280zx panels and if they'll fit (or if you'd want them to fit) a 260z 2+2 would be acecheers guys!

January 14, 200421 yr comment_64307 No.. Fortunatly they won't fit! And even if you modify them to fit... um... they wouldn't look good AT ALL in my opinion and would mess up the lines on the S30 chassis.

January 14, 200421 yr Author comment_64326 ah! damn bout the panels, i'll pass that on! was pretty sure even if they did fit it wouldn't quite look right.. cheers for the quick response and thanks for the comments! the steering wheel and knob are both momo items, was well over a year ago that i bought them.. both were pretty ridiculously priced for what they are, but the quality is excellent and I've never looked back! the steering wheel is a 'fighter legno' and retails for about $450au atm.. the shifter is a 'combat radica' and goes for about $130au or so shift boot is custom leather, still got some work to do with that and for a boss hub kit, just buy an autotechnica one.. they're exactly the same as the momo kit but like half the price Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/9726-280zx-bonnet-nose-cones-qtrs-on-to-260z/#findComment-64326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 15, 200421 yr comment_64401 Please anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but from the tid-bits of Z things I've picked up from this site, unless I've mis-read... the 280Z front panels should work but the ZX definately won't and even if they did, they'd look fugly.

January 15, 200421 yr comment_64419 correct, but as the 280Z was never released in australia i assume it was a typo. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/9726-280zx-bonnet-nose-cones-qtrs-on-to-260z/#findComment-64419 Share on other sites More sharing options...
February 15, 200421 yr comment_68524 Some 280zx owners in australia lateley have been neglecting to add the X to the end of their cars model number when advertising them for sale. They dont realise that the 280z is a completely different model.
