280ZX 1980 white manual for sale

This is a really good sample of the Nissan Datsun Fairlady 280ZX (2+2) 1980 in white colour. Pretty hard to find a rust free sample, credit to its previous owner. The Fairlady 280ZX is at 168.500km at the moment and will increase slightly due to weekend driven. Paint is in pretty good condition, no ...

Re: Just bought this 280ZX

Welcome back. I agree the Z bug bites hard. I think you have bought at the right time, as the 280ZX prices are on the rise. Are you a club member? Free membership until June 2021. See the web site to join up. Have you considered coming to track day? We are still looking to fill more spots. Sorry I ...

Just bought this 280ZX

Hello guys again, I have been around this forum since 2014 when I bought my 350Z. I was using that 350z for daily driven for about 4.5 years, and also used it as a weekend track car. Had a lots of fun with it. Then I sold it at the end of 2018 due to having a baby due soon at that time. Long story s...

Bushing for 350Z

Hi guys,

It is time to replace all bushing for my 350Z. Just wonder if anyone have replaced it for their Zs? I intend to go with Whiteline bushing kits. I have the OEM one on my car and it is too loose at the moment.

Thanks.

Following this topic, I took my car out for another track last week at Pukekohe. This time it feels much better. Now I since I paid attention, I relised that the 350Z is quite slow out of a corner. To prevent that, I tried to brake later before entering a corner. However, sometimes I am in a situati...

Cool, thanks guys. That makes things clear now. The reason I asked because in the anime Initial D (if any of you guys know it), Takumi - the main character said that he shouldn't look back at the mirror in terms of focusing on the road lol. Also, thanks for the manual below, even if it is too long a...

Okay I see. There is one more thing I want to ask before my next track day: When you guys drive in a track, do you look at the back mirror to see whether there is a car close behind you? Cause before taking a corner, I always have to look back to see if there is a car close behind me or not to avoid...

Hi guys, I appreciate all the opinions. Seems like there are still lots of things to learn. I am going to another track day by the end of this month and will try to apply what I have learned so far on the track so see how things go. Regarding to the brake, I did some research and saw that from 100 t...

Yeah I totally understand. Would you guys say that if I add front and rear sway bars and do front and rear camber arms so that it is a little bit negative, will it help the gripping? I am about to do it but wanna ask if any of you guys have experience with it. After all, I still want to keep it as a...

Track experience

Hi there, So I took my 350Z to Pukekohe track last weekend for the first time. It was awesome. However, I noticed few things and would love to have some advises from experience people on the forum: 1. I feel like the brakes is not good enough for some reason. Or maybe it is because I brake too late?...

How serious are you about improving your times, and how much are you willing to spend :lol: How much wheel spin are you getting - the first 60ft has an impact on your 1/4 mile time, in that time improvements here are said to double your improvements at the finish. I think I get wheel spin all the t...
