And THATS the beauty of the 370!! That I couldn't enjoy 99% of the time. It's the fun if a BRZ with POWER!! So, not being rich, I chose the better DD of the Genesis over the scalpel and fun of the the Z. Gen my offers 90% of Z performance with 120% comfort/ convenience. No it won't out run, out turn a 370. But 99% there's no way I'm utilizing 90% of my Genesis performance let alone the Z.

Fix your signature, it is urking me. Datsun only made the 260z in one year. 1974. They had 2 different models, The 1974 that looked like a 240z and the 1974 1/2 that looked just like the 1975 280z but with carbs.

What? The build date of my 260 was july of '78, with a sale of '79 season. 240 was like 73 or 74, youre WAY off son. I had one, so sit down and let the grown ups talk.

The other person is correct.

260z was made for 1974 only and there were two models. One with the 240z bumpers and the 1974 1/2 with the larger 280z bumpers. The 260z had two Hitachi carbs and 240z had two SU carbs. 1973 was the last year for the 240z. 1978 was the last year for the 280z with fuel injection. 1979 was the first year for the 280zx.

I had an 1974 1/2 260z with triple Webers, headers, cam etc. and an 1979 280zx.

260 was 74-78 build dates according to wiki. I agree.

Perhaps you should have kept that 1979 260z. It probably worth a fortune being the only one sold in US.

However, I think you are either mistaken or got ripped off when you purchased that brand new 1979 260z. Sorry.
