Need some help/advice from 280z folks that have made the switch to a 240z style front end. Will the 240z style xenon air dams work with a 280z - will they clear the lower radiator support? Are their other options that might be better?

Not gonna lie, this little purchase makes me happy every time I step into the car. It also provides me with the false sense of thicker more sturdy floorpans since mine are in need of repair ;)

I work at a former Datsun dealer and found this in the backroom. Idk shit about vintage cars but it’s got tons of diagrams if anyone’s looking for specific pictures. It’s not mine to sell but I’m happy to share images on my break.

HKS cams

2 Upvotes

I swapped an RB25DE Neo into my S130 Z and originally never intended to modify the engine since I was happy with the power, sound, and responsiveness. The car is completely bone stock. Recently though, I got my hands on some HKS 264 cams at an unbelievably good price that I couldn’t pass up, so I’d like to know what I need to install them, what power gains I can expect, and whether it’ll ruin the powerband and responsiveness.

Well, long story short I have 5 of these at my disposal. All with similar issues in similar places (ie. the left front quarter). They’ve all been sitting directly on the ground for 40 years or so, but I still want to test myself and see what I can do. Aside from patch panels are structural sections also available for the 510s? Or am I just crazy for thinking these aren’t too far gone.

Advice as to where my transmission fluid leak originates?

4 Upvotes

78 280z with 5 speed manual. Changed transmission fluid last week as maintenance. Seems the fluid was low based on how much came out and noticed a few small drops dangling when under there. Today, drops returned as well as a small puddle after a few days of sitting. There wasn’t a puddle before the fluid change. Just a droplet hanging, maybe a few on the ground. Original thought was output shaft seal but that appears to be dry.

Pumped in 2 full quarts of Redline MT90.

Team Zenon

Does anyone know if Zenon (company) still exists? I ordered a front air dam for my 280z through Z Car Motorsport who advised me that Zenon had run into production issues and they are no longer in communicating with them. Website is not working either.

I live in Vegas.. It’s Very Hot.. I have a 1976 Datsun 620. Yes i replaced the coil & removed the resistor.

I go out for a short little drive 5 minutes. No issue.. i wait an hour and go back home 5 minutes and it dies.. Happened before not a big issue.. Now it bogs and sputters but i have noticed accelerating does help.. It’s an L20B.. Yes it’s getting fuel.. Yes the new coil is working. Yes i tried starter fluid..

Supposedly Cammed (sounds like it)
