Reptoid Overlords Posted April 14, 2018 Share #3 Posted April 14, 2018 I'm not sure what build date would constitute an early production '79 ZX, or if its even all that important to most people. But as far as ZX's go, I personally prefer '79 through '80. After that you have O2 sensors and automatic climate control and T-tops. All fairly troublesome. The later cars got flat tops with the F54 blocks. You have dish top pistons(assuming its original), with N42 block/N47 head. I have an '80ZX with its original engine that seems to be holding up quite well. These are solid machines.I'm currently building an F54/P90 to put in it either when I feel like it, or this one wears out. The current engine will probably outlast my eagerness to swap it out with the new one.

JessHS130 Posted April 14, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted April 14, 2018 Wondering if it is a Fairlady. It's a Datsun 280ZX with the tags that's I attached. Original engine and transmission. New to all of this and I got her for a good deal. She runs and drives.

Reptoid Overlords Posted April 14, 2018 Share #6 Posted April 14, 2018 A Fairlady would be right hand drive for the Japanese domestic market.

JessHS130 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share #7 Posted April 16, 2018 I just got off the phone with Nissan. The 280ZX began production in 08/1978 so she is "first gen, first run". I will hear back from them within three business days as to which production number this car is. My husband and I own an automotive shop so we will begin to restore her back to her original glory. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/59864-hs-130-questions/#findComment-547430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessHS130 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share #8 Posted April 16, 2018 Figured I should probably add a photo of her. Runs and drives all original, engine, transmission, etc... Her paint makes her look rougher than she actually is. Someone before us installed house carpet so that will be the first we pull out of it. 2 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/59864-hs-130-questions/#findComment-547431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
