When did Datsun stop making the 260Z engine?
In the rest of the world, the 260Z would continue on until the S30 platform was retired at the end of 1978, but in the U.S. a fresh 280Z (with, you guessed it, a 2.8-liter engine) hit the streets for 1975 and hung around till the end.
Is the 1977 280Z the same as the 1978 280ZX?
At least not for the 1978 280Z. I would imagine that the 70 through 77 are about the same. If you have a 280ZX, it is a little more difficult, because you have to remove the dashboard – not so with the 280Z. Ok let’s get started. Tip 1: Take pictures with a digital camera as you go, so you know where to put things back.
What kind of car was the Datsun 240Z?
Datsun’s brilliant 240Z was really the car that its designers wanted it to be for just the first two years of its four-year run. By 1972, emission controls had started to affect drivability and by 1973, the Z was not quite the driver’s car it had originally been.

Which is longer the 240Z or the 280Z?
It’s important to note that although you may see the 260Z and 280Z listed as longer than the 240Z, it’s the bumpers that are adding the extra six inches—the bodies are exactly the same in almost every dimension.
