This incredible 1975 Datsun 280Z combines classic Japanese sports
car styling with modern American V8 performance. Finished in black
and fitted with a dramatic ZTrix 940Z widebody kit, this custom
Datsun has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind machine that
delivers supercar looks and exhilarating performance.
Power comes from an all-aluminum 6.0-liter LS2 V8 producing 400
horsepower. Paired with a Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission,
this lightweight 280Z offers an outstanding power-to-weight ratio
and an engaging driving experience. A 280ZX Turbo differential with
3.55 gears helps put the power to the pavement, making the car
equally capable on back roads, at car shows, or on the track.
The exterior has been extensively modified with shaved headlights,
shaved door handles with electric door poppers, carbon fiber GT3
mirrors, a rear spoiler, and a front air deflector. A lift-off hood
secured with Zeus fasteners provides easy access to the engine bay,
while the dual exhaust integrated into the rear bumper gives the
car a clean, modern appearance. Massive 19-inch Forged Performance
two-piece wheels wrapped in Nitto tires measuring 255/35ZR19 in
front, and 285/35ZR19 in the rear, perfectly fill the widened
fenders and give this Datsun 280Z an aggressive stance.
Inside, the black-and-maroon ostrich skin bucket seats create a
custom interior unlike anything found in a factory Z car. A black
powder-coated aluminum dash insert and console, Auto Meter Pro Comp
gauges, and a padded roll cage reinforce the car's high-performance
character. Vintage Air air conditioning adds modern comfort, making
this 1975 Datsun 280Z for sale enjoyable in virtually any driving
condition.
Performance upgrades continue underneath with four-wheel power disc
brakes and an adjustable coil-over suspension system that delivers
impressive handling and ride quality. Long-tube headers and the
custom dual exhaust provide an unmistakable soundtrack that
perfectly matches the LS-powered performance.
For enthusiasts searching for a Datsun 280 or a highly modified
280Z for sale, this beautifully executed restomod offers classic
Japanese styling, modern V8 power, and custom craftsmanship that
sets it apart from virtually anything else on the road.
