    Need 280zx oil pan, prefer turbo, but NA is fine too.
  2. Thanks! RS Watanabe R-Type: 16 x 8.5, -6mm offset 205/50/16 tires Ebach lowering springs, swapped the top rear insulator mount for 240z's version (it's thinner than the 280z stock) Original shocks (busted) Rolled rear fenders, but not pulled
  3. After sending the seller the dimensions and photos of the bar, he insists that it's made for a 280z and that he highly doubts his jig has changed since it was created. I don't doubt that at all, but I think his jig is just not built to factory 280z dimensions. (I have a Cusco front strut bar [non-adjustable], and it fits perfectly). Anyways, I've requested to have the bar returned and refunded, so we'll see.
  4. Alright, looks like they did mix up the bar. I'll have to send them my bar back and the will send me a replacement. I definitely like the build quality of the bar and style a lot from what I can tell so far. I'll keep y'all updated.
  5. Oh, the reason why I would think they would blame my car is because of one of the posters here (above) said that they stood by their product, and the seller also stated on the site that it's a perfect fit, and if it wasn't then it's because it's the car. The seller is Top End Performance themselves, and they did advertise it for the 280z. Even if I was to open the bolt holes up, it wouldn't mount properly, because the center circle (circle inside the 3 bolts) don't line up either with my strut tower center. I messaged them, and we'll see what they say.
  6. I also have fitment issues of my rear strut bar on my 280z. It's about 1/2" too wide, and if I was to go down any lower, it would definitely tear my vinyl. I think this bar was made for a 240z since 240z's has rear strut towers further apart than 280z's. My 280z is mint and not damaged at all. Have contacted the seller, but I have a feeling they will blame it on my car.
