kev...i really dont like those rear lights la n the paint scheme....foose? 2-tone at the wrong place la...but i wouldnt mind the engine tho hehehe. dashboard's not the original too...i bet the fitting wont be that great too. if anybody has test drove this car, pls do let me know how it goes..esp the fittings

aalborg...still no news bout the windscreen. my fren's on raya leave till mid next week and he has no way of checking if the windscreen is still there. should still be there or he can always fabricate a new one...will keep u updated...

ok.appreciated ur effort.. thanks. just cant understand what u means by fabricated a new one :hmmmm:

oh that....my fren is working in a windscreen moulding factory...he says there is a unit but is china made. quality not so good...he's still checking if the factory still has the mould for the 280zx. if he still has the mould, then he can make 1 with better quality glass...

there is one in thailand who does copy and the quality is quite nice, they have a number of classic car lens they copy :D

Arturo, R and J sports has a 280ZX advertised on their site. check it out, maybe it's what you want. RM24k does not seem too bad.

[Kevin Lee]

sad the original seats been replaced, jonathan, u should consider this too, lol

 

[thangoh]

I dunno, Kev. I have a thing for the older models. The 280ZX is nice, but 240Z is nicer. I'm on the look out for 1 too haha.

 

[Kevin Lee]

theres one 240z for 60k, lol, look for fairlady 1980 and below year range in mudah :D lol

 

[thangoh]

RM 60k is way too much for me. Way way way too much.

 

[arturo]

yah...that 240z is way to expensive for the avg joe to just fork out 60k cash. besides, its a fully restored z....buy n drive. more ngam for the rich ehehehhe

 

[Decor]

the 60k fairlady doesn't look like a 240z.. it could be a 260 or 280 2+2 model

 

[thangoh]

How goes your search for the 280zx, Arturo?
