That's what I gathered after doing some quick reading. Too bad. It's a cool platform.

Yeap, I have my 1975 280zt in the garage. I had to replace the floorboards back in 2010. I have owned the car since 1992.

I meant to ask you, when you were running your 300zx tt how much power were you making?

It was mostly stock with an intake and exhaust. I was too poor to mod it much back then. I was a college student. Plus, My 280zt took the wind out of my sails modding cars. I broke all kinds of stuff on that car. That car was and still is a love hate relationship. I just can't sell it because I know I will want another one and they are not around.

I had a '71 240Z. I had a stroked 280Z motor installed (3.0 liter). Triple 44 mikuni's, can't remember which head I had on it. 5 speed. That thing was super dependable, would start right up. I did have to replace u joints quite a bit though

I was looking into doing that to my 1980 280zx. Then I went for a ride in a turbo car and couldn't get out the seat when the TQ hit. I was hooked. I bought the 1975 280zt.

I was going to turbo the 240. The shop that built it was going to make a blow through manifold for the mikuni's. I was happy with it NA so I never followed through with the turbo
