1982 Datsun 280zx Turbo on 2040-cars
Foresthill, California, United States
Last buyer was a flake, please don't make an offer unless you are serious about purchasing. If you're interested in my car please contact me! I'm also interested in trades for parts (S30) or possibly other cars. I am interested in 4x4 Toyota pickups or 4runners, OR Datsun/Nissan pickups (Must be 4x4). Make me an offer, and just talk with me. Worst I can say is no. It does drive almost flawlessly as is. But at idle there is a very slight roughness. My guess is the O2 sensor as I was getting no reading from it with my multimeter. Nearly everything mechanical and sensor wise has been replaced though, see the list below. I will give the most accurate description of the car I can. So here's a list of the work done on the car: All of these are within ~13,000 miles Complete Bottom/Top End of Engine Rebuilt Low Mileage T-5 Manual Transmission swapped in New Brute Power Clutch and Flywheel New Water Pump New Alternator New NGK BPR7ES-11 Spark Plugs New NGK Spark Plug Wires New Distributor Cap/Rotor New Valve Cover Gasket New Fuel Pressure Regulator New 3-Wire O2 Sensor New Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor Replaced Vacuum and Fuel Lines/filter New Fuel Pump New Thermostat Sensor Replaced all Fluids recently including Castrol High Performance Synthetic oil at change ~500 miles ago New Starter Motor New Fuel Injector Set Factory Rebuilt MAF All Exhaust Gaskets Replaced New Intake/Exhaust Manifold Gasket Here's a List of UPGRADES done to the car: R200 OBX Helical Type LSD New T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo New Larger 3 Core Aluminum Radiator Upgraded to 300zx Ignition Coil New Poly Suspension Bushings all around Drilled and Slotted Brake Rotors w/ Semi-Metallic pads Stainless Steel Brake Lines New Tokico HP Struts all around New Magnaflow Muffler - Not overly loud and has a great tone 300ZXT ECU Swap Greddy Profec B Electronic Boost Controller Rare 120mph Speedo Swapped in The bad: Still on the factory paint job and has a few dents. Fuel pump is wired up to a switch at the moment, could be good or bad depending on how you look at it, I like it. The trunk interior isn't in the best condition, however the front is in very good condition. This car is ready for more boost! All you need is a front mount intercooler and some bigger injectors. Everything else is 100% ready to go. It's also the perfect candidate for a swap into your s30, a rebuilt engine w/ upgraded turbo, low mileage T-5, new helical LSD for a good price. The rest of the car could easily be parted/sold and make your swap cheap. I simply don't have the time. Aside from the idle, the car pulls fantastically through the rev range. The 300zx ECU swap was a great upgrade from the stock management system. The upgraded turbo spools way faster than stock, and these upgrades alone (Running 10-12lbs of boost) makes the car significantly faster and more fun to drive. Coupled with the HLSD, and all of the new suspension bits this thing can take a corner much better than stock as well. As you can see in the photos, I have the glove box removed currently. I have all of the parts for it bagged and I will gladly reinstall it if you wish. Also, underneath the radio you'll see a hole, that is where the Greddy Electronic Boost controller is located. I currently have that removed due to smog, but it WILL be included with the car. This car comes with a couple of extra parts as well if you want them, I will discuss this with the buyer based on the price. (2nd Refurbed MAF ~$250, High Flow Walbro Fuel Pump, a second set of Turbo wheels w/ nearly NEW Falken tires ~$400 etc etc). Please click this link to go to my photbucket album and take a look at my car, Ebay will only allow me to post 4 pictures free: If you have any questions whatsoever, please feel free to call or text me at (530) 919-9798 (Leave a voicemail if no answer, bad cell service at home) or contact me through ebay and I will be glad to answer them to the best of my ability. I can also take more pictures of specific areas if you wish! The car is also for sale locally, and I reserve the right to end the auction early if I reach an agreement outside of ebay. You CAN drive the car home if you wish, however it may be good to have a truck to bring that extra set of wheels with you. Also, if you are local, we can definitely arrange for you to come see the car. |

Datsun Redi-Go is reborn brand's first concept car [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Nissan's plan for its reborn Datsun sub-brand just got a shot in the arm, as the emerging-market manufacturer has unveiled its first concept car since its resurrection back in 2012. Called the Redi-Go Concept, it looks like a high-riding version of Datsun's recently launched Go hatchback that's been fitted with a few concept car cues (not a bad thing).
The Redi-Go packs LED taillights, Datsun's "D-cut grille" and LED running lights into its Go-inspired body. Funky two-tone 15-inch wheels add a bit of cheek to the overall design, and in our minds look quite good, despite being so small. The ruggedized front and rear bumpers, as well as the sill and wheel arch surrounds add to the Redi-Go's rough-and-tumble aesthetic. We like that Datsun has kept the overall package short, giving the Redi-Go a 92.5-inch wheelbase, rather than creating a lifted version of the upcoming Go+. There are no specific mentions of the Redi-Go's mechanicals, although we'd wager that a production model might share the 1.2-liter engine and five-speed manual found in the standard Go.
While it might be easy to dismiss a concept like the Redi-Go in America, there's no denying its importance to the Indian market, which is decidedly more limited when it comes to available bodystyles. "If we were to make a car like Datsun Redi-Go Concept it would be a segment creator in India, an aspirational car that at the same time is attainable, a car that would be within reach of the first time buyer. This concept shows how serious we are about reinvigorating the market by catering for the needs of a growing class of Indians who have the chance to own a family car that will enable them to enjoy a new sense of independence," said Vincent Cobee, the global head of Datsun.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least. Nissan relaunched the Datsun brand in July as its new budget brand for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback, and has now followed up with the addition of the larger Go+.
Set to be built in Indonesia at Nissan's plant in Purwakarta, the Go+ debuts today in the capital of Jakarta as the second model in the new Datsun lineup. The seven-passenger minivan features flexible seating in a compact form 13 feet long, powered by an unspecified 1.2-liter engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
Nissan isn't saying much else about the model, but hopes the new Datsun twins will account for half of its sales in Indonesia within three years. The low price target for both models - set to come in at less than 100 million rupiah ($8,700) - ought to help it get there. The lineup is then scheduled to reach other markets, starting with India, Russia and South Africa next year.
