datzun 08-01-2003 11:55 AM

thanks guys. yes engine swap is planned for the future...2 years probably. going to go with the 3.5 L nissan engine (VQ35DET) that comes in the new 350Z/altima 3.5/murano. very strong engine which will have a good life and mods for it should be plenty by the time i get ready to do so. :)

TypeLT 01-13-2004 07:39 PM

Thats sweet, I didn't know you could put the new 3.5L in the 280, that should be a bit of a performance improvement :twisted:

undien717 02-26-2004 11:13 PM

Wow- that car is in superb condition! I've always loved the older datsun sports cars, and your's is definitely beautiful.

Riese1825 02-29-2004 04:03 AM

How much do you think the price now on it is?

dragula_bassman 03-01-2004 12:41 PM

Nice Z. I am in the process of purchasing an '82 and restoring it. I am a Nissan/Ferrari Nut :twisted:
