Thank you for looking at my auction for our 1975 Datsun 280Z. This was a father and son project that we've lost interest in. Please read the entire description before bidding. We bought the car locally with a bad motor and installed the current drivetrain last year. The car has a GM 5.3 LS FUEL INJECTED V-8 with a turbo 350 automatic. We used an auto because we planned on using a 76mm turbo (never installed) and it was a factory auto car. We spent a ton of $$$ on the car and did not cut any corners when building. Here is a rundown of the basics

HERE IS A LINK TO MY PHOTOBUCKET PAGE WITH LOTS OF PICTURES---- http://s591.photobucket.com/user/shupaye1/library/280Z%20pics?sort=3&page=1

2005 5.3 LS V-8

turbo 350 auto

ATI 2800 stall convertor +/- high end convertor for turbo application

Walboro fuel pump

braided Aeroquip hoses with all -6 AN fittings

LS 6 intake

32 lb injectors

Aeromotive fuel rails

243 CNC PORTED HEADS $$$

aluminum radiator-- runs very cool-- electric fan

Thunder racing 230 cam

Sanderson headers with custom MANDREL 2.5" into 3" EXHAUST flows great

$$$$$AFTERMARKET 4340 AXLE FLANGES WITH CV AXLES (welded diff)$$$$$

aftermarket sway bars front and rear

new KYB struts and lowered 1.5"

recent OPTIMA BATTERY

almost new Michelin tires

period correct American Racing "Vector" wheels 14x7

aftermarket urethane air dam on front

Autometer tach

Custom motor and transmission mounts (wanted motor back as far as possible and JCI etc placed engine to far forward for our tastes see pics plz)

We replaced the drivers side floor and a few small areas around the drain plugs on the passenger side and 2 small patches on the bottom of the front fenders( very common areas). Under the battery is very nice. It has the original frame rails that are very nice as is the rest of the car. It was/is a very solid South Carolina car. It has mostly original paint BUT IT NEEDS PAINT!!! My son let a buddy drive it and he jumped on it in 2nd gear blew the tires off (spinning)and lost control taking out a few small trees and dented the drivers side fender and door---no other damage and very minor for any body shop to repair. The car drives great, very smooth, handles great and is very streetable/dependable. Car has been 7.36 @ 94 mph in the 1/8th as it sits with 205/70 r14 tires. We wanted the car to be a "sleeper".

THE REASON FOR SELLING AND THE LOW RESERVE IS DUE TO A BOTTOM END NOISE/KNOCK IT WILL CRANK AND DRIVE--- AS SOON AS IT STARTED MAKING THE NOISE WE SHUT IT DOWN AND HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE. GREAT CHANCE TO THROW IN A JUNKYARD 5.3 OR 6.0 AND GO HAVE FUN OR ??? OUR LOSS IS YOUR GAIN!!! WE HAVE SPENT OVER 10k ON THE CAR AND YOU COULD NOT BEGIN TO BUILD IT FOR WHAT OUR RESERVE IS.

We reserve the right to end the listing at any time due to local sale. questions or concerns just call me @ 864-483-7619 thanks and good luck

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

A 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.

Datsun to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.
