1977 280z Coupe
Has swapped engine (83' L28ET 2.8l) was rebuild and head resurfaced by previous owner a little over a year ago. has F1 Stage 2 Clutch and pressure plate, Blitz DD blow off valve, with custom inter-cooler piping. B&M oil cooler. Jegs fuel pressure gauge. Walbro 255lph inline fuel pump with filter. T3 turbo with brand new core replaced this past August. 2.5' Downpipe to 3" magnaflow performance muffler w 4" tip. NXS manual boost controller set to 9psi. Engine runs pretty awesome, it may be time to check the timing chain but that's about it. Around 200000 miles on chassis, 50k miles on Engine since swap & rebuild. 

Full Energy Suspension bushing kit. Tokico blue HP shocks with drop springs. 86' Toyota 4x4 4 Piston Front calpiers for solid rotors. Front and rear Strut bars.

16x10 Diamond racing wheels, White with 4.5' Backspace. Kuhmo ASX 225/50/16 tires with plenty of life left on them.

Custom TCP global "Inferno Orange" paint, matte black hood and fender flares. JDM fender mirrors (one is a little loose) New weather stripping.

Mazda MX-5 Miata seats, Gt Grant steering wheel with quick release security kit. Autometer boost gauge, AEM Wideband O2 sensor with gauge (not mounted though) I also have a Megasquirt 2 EFI that is not yet installed and willing to let go with the vehicle. 

Kenwood Radio with Hifonics Brutus amp and Boston acoustics G310 Sub. and Pioneer 4" speakers. system sounds pretty good but willing to lower the price if you don't want the Amp and Sub. 

4 speed manual transmission

Time for the bad stuff:
Front right strut is completely gone. Needs replacement ASAP! ( would recommend at least replacing the front two at the same time as it's not really good to just replace one)
Speedometer doesn't work nor does the Fuel gauge
No Headliner and missing some interior trim pieces
No A/C or Horn 
There is a rattle which appears to be coming from the Clutch disk (most likely a loose spring on the disk which absorbs some of the vibrations). The clutch works fine just a slight rattle which could get annoying.


I have an extra motor (L28) that also comes with the car. Good condition and rebuilt. N42 Block, N42 Head with non EGR N42 Intake manifold, aluminium fuel rail with injectors, 6/3/2 headers. 
Also have a 5 speed transmission which needs a rebuild.

Selling the car because I don't have the time to fix it like I should and want something different. Very solid car! but definitely needs attention as it's a classic now.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."

Datsun Redi-Go is reborn brand's first concept car [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Nissan'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.

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.
