Vehicle description
NO RESERVE HEAVILY UPGRADED DATSUN 280ZX OVER 40K INVESTED
$10K custom gold flake paint job!
The buyer is moving out of state and needs to sell the car. The auction is a no reserve auction, so no matter what, the best bidder wins!
It is often that cars are modified to just look pretty and have no substance when you put the pedal to the floor. This is not one of those cars. The owner has a motorsport background and made sure that the power output of the vehicle is just as fantastic as the looks of the car.
NO RESERVE! This is a professionally modified and restored 1980 Datsun 280ZX. The engine, suspension, interior, and exterior have all been rebuilt to the highest possible spec, making this car a fantastic hot street car, drift car, or track car. Custom 3” exhaust paired with the soundtrack of the massive T3/T04 turbo and Greddy Blow-Off Valve make the experience of driving this car truly magical. The interior has been resto-modded to a performance-minded spec, with microsuede corbeau bucket seats hugging you around every corner. The best part is, the car is factory-equipped with T-tops, so you can enjoy the entire experience with open skies above you! The owner of this car has spared no expense in the building of this car, and it is a one of a kind machine which can be enjoyed by both novice car-enthusiasts and professional drivers alike.
The car is said to produce in the region of 300-350 horsepower as built. The owner states that based on the engine build, a transmission upgrade to a 240sx transmission can easily allow the car to push 500-550 horsepower.
The Datsun runs an aftermarket Megasquirt ECU. The car is tuned to the owner’s specifications, but based on the application the car will be used in, adjustments to the tune may be desired and are easy to accomplish.
Given the custom nature of this car, please feel free to reach out with any questions about the vehicle

Faults include Steering column plastic cover missing Fasteners needed for rear hatch panel and passenger side trunk panel Rev counter does not function - the ECU does read the revs, so the crank angle sensor does function correctly. The correct output pin to the analogue rev counter just needs to be selected in the ECU settings
