1983 Nissan / Datsun 280ZX Turbo 5-speed All Original 60K miles.
1983 Datsun Z-Series
60K verifiable original miles. Very hard to find TURBO model with a manual. Runs and drives out great. Its still fast by today's standards but in 1983 it was way ahead of its time. Comfortable and planted at all speeds. Clutch grabs amazing. No grinds in any gears. Idles perfect and pulls smooth hot or cold. Boost gauge works and by monitoring it I can confidently say the turbo is in perfect working order. All stock including radio and air box! Original factory turbo model wheels. New tires with under 1000 miles put on mid 2016. Suspension feels good, no diving or squatting.Working A/C. Power windows and mirrors. Power antenna. The radio even sounds great. The audio system works so this car talks to you. New spark plugs, wires and oil change this year. New pads and rotors. New starter and alternator with lifetime warranties also this year. Most of the vacuum lines are new.includes all known receipts for parts and service with mileage indications. The largest repair its ever had was a $800 bill for towing and replacing the fuel pressure regulators. No leaks in a drive-thru car wash.No whistles orsqueakseven at high speed. I do love this car but have to many others to really enjoy this one too. It was re-painted a long time ago but has some shine left. Not a bad job, the door jams and such all match. This is not pristine show car quality but if that's what you wanted to make of it its a great platform. Many new interior pieces, extra switches and badges to go with it. Two rust free front fenders included. Un-cracked salvage dash and vents included. additional dash wire harness too. I had the valve cover off for painting and everything looks great and well lubricated. No carbon build up or wear on cam lobes.The bad: 2 cracks in dash but will include a used but un-cracked nissan dash. Some rust in typical spots around the front fenders, again includes a set of rust free ones that will need to be painted to match. Tach, cruise and clock do not work. I have not looked into those systems.
The car is priced to sell. I'm not looking to get rich on this thing but they do have a great collector market for a model like this. The interior and engine bay a still dirty in the photos but will clean up nicely. Feel free to message me for any additional details.

Addition 12/15/19. I cleaned it up today but could only add the two new engine pics that look a whole lot better. Cleaned the dust off the car and interior too but I don't have room to add more pics of that. I guess ebay doesn't allow me to remove the dirty pics. The car was dusty in the garage pictures and really takes away from how nice it actually looks. I drove it to the car wash today. Runs perfect and extra quick in the cold weather. Also the parking brake works perfect and is adjusted correctly. Forgot to include that specific to the TURBO model the oil pressure gauge has a temp indication, the pressure works but the temp does not. I planned on looking into all those items when I changed the dash but never got to it. My kid blew up his race bike so I need to focus on that.
I do have a truck and trailer and could assist in delivery or pick u up at the airport(15 min from my house) so u can drive it home.
