I'm putting my z for sale; it's a 1975 Datsun 280z S30 coupe 5 speed. She's a great car and she’s got lots of new parts. She’s a great daily driver.
I'm selling my Z because I need cash to start up my business. That's the
only reason I'm selling her. I bought this car with the intention to never sell
her. But life has her way of letting you know who is boss. I upgraded the
suspension and all the brake parts because I wanted to make sure she would be a
reliable daily driver. Fully tuned up and ready for her new home. She's not
perfect but turns heads where ever she goes. The interior is all there and original besides
one missing panel. The only interior defects are the holes where the
PO cut out for speakers, and the driver rear quarter panel cover is missing. On
the driver seat there is a small whole by the left bolster and a small slit by
the bottom left bolster. The passenger seat is mint. All
the gauges work except the clock. New Falken 205/50/15 tires on
Enkei 92s 15x8, new left and right tie rod ends, new sway bar end links, 4 new
shocks, new brakes, new SS brake lines, new rear brake cylinders. New Flow
master 40 series muffler. New 280zx master cylinder, new clutch master
cylinder. New plugs and wires. New carpet. Used 330MM Naradi steering wheel.
New shift booth and e-brake boot. Car comes with factory 4 speed. Installed is a 1982 280zx close ratio 5 speed. New speakers all the way around, 6" in
the front under the dash and 5.5" in the rear. Nice Pioneer CD player with
Aux input and remote. A/C blows cold and has been retrofitted to use R134
gas. Heater works great too. Dash has a cover over it, has a few cracks. The
car has some old tint on it that will be removed. The body is on good shape
with only a few spots that have bobbles here and there. The PO repainted the
car and didn't do a good job with the prep work. The rust is minimal with a car
this age and will be a quick fix with a repaint if you feel
it’s necessary. Frame rails are solid. The floor boards have a few small
holes, but nothing that a few patches can't fix. Overall the floors
are structurally sound. The original 280z bumpers were swapped
in favor of the 240z front bumper with custom mounting brackets. The rear I
left without a bumper because that was the look I was going for. Air dam is for
a 240z as you can see there is cut outs for 240z turn signals. Over all the Z
is a great car for a daily driver and she turns heads. She needs a few cosmetic
fixes but other than that she’s great! Hope the new owner will enjoy her as
much as I did. Happy bidding. Low Reserve. |

Nissan IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts are a bridge to the Datsun 510
Wed, 20 Nov 2013We're not sure if someone from The Adjustment Bureau stopped by Nissan's PR department to explain the IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts, but the company's odd press release can't diminish our love for these two show favorites. We had been told to look out for an unnamed Datsun 510 BRE homage, and once we saw the brothers IDx, we knew we'd found them. But the press release doesn't mention anything about the Datsun 510 Brock Racing Enterprises, nor does it mention one Mr. Peter Brock, the man who won two Trans-Am championships in the Seventies for the nascent Japanese budget brand.
Instead, it declares that the cars were the result of a co-creation product development process with "digital natives," said natives being the whippersnappers born after 1990. Nissan says it worked with the young'uns to create two different expressions of "their desire for a basic, authentic configuration for a car." If that's true, it appears that what the kiddies really want are... two different homages to the Datsun 510 BRE that Peter Brock used to win two championships in the seventies for the nascent Japanese brand.
The IDx Freeflow - the "ID" is for "identification," the "x" is "the variable representing the new values and dreams born through communication" - takes the casual approach, with a light khaki exterior hue, a minimalist interior decked out in denim and a console shifter that works a continuously variable transmission. The IDx Nismo is out for blood, from its crimson interior to its five-point harness to its bolt-on flares and sidepipes. We aren't told what the digital natives requested for powerplants, but that's alright; if this is what "co-creation" looks like, we're not entirely against it except where that "CVT" is involved.
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."
Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster
Tue, 28 Jan 2014A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.
