Hey im going to be doing a swap this summer in my 76 280z. I was wondering what you guys think about the rb25 vs the rb26. I want to make a lot of power but i dont want to spending a ton of money. I was also considering a 2jz swap but i kind of want to keep it nissan. I want a manual trans. Any info about the swap and how much it may cost would help, also any places where i can get the parts would be nice also. Thanks.

So i offered him $300 today and he said hed look into it too. I sent him some pictures of the car so well see what happens.

I plan on doing all the work myself, im going to need a clutch, front and rear lower quarters, floor pans, rockers, a clutch, and maybe rails as far as i know at this point. Im going to have a talk with him tomorow and offer him $300 and go from there. Thanks for the info guys.

I checked the floors and rails and theres pretty much no floor, the passenger seat is through the floor and both have big holes everywhere. On the other hand as far as i can see the rails are pretty good. heres some pics of the floor. Im going to call him tonight so what do you think a good price would be?

Arite ill go check that stuff out. Thanks a lot

Ok so i havnt acually payed for the car yet, its my grandpas friends car and its at my grandpas house. Its been sitting there for 16 years. I talked to the owner and he wants to sell it but he doesnt know a price. He told me to look into it and get back to him. So im just trying to figure out whats wrong with it. Im looking for a good summer project as i just finished my last one. He said it ran great when he parked it there but that was 16 years ago so. The car turns over, im going to get a battery and check for sprak today as the one in it was shot even jumping it didnt work well. The rear wheels are locked up. The clutch pedal just bounces up and down, the throttle sticks and it needs some body work. Heres some pictures. What do you guys think a good price for it would be. Its a 76 280z with an l28 and a 4 spd. Any feedback would be great, thanks.

Hey i just got a 76 280z from a buddy. It wont start, it turns over but wont start. Its been sitting since 1993. The clutch pedal also just bounces back and forth. What could be the problem with starting? Im going to check for spark tomorow but what kind of fuel pump do these have? where is it? Also what are some other problems that are comon? Lastly what would be a good price for this car, it has barely any rust, the interior is in good shape, it only has surface rust in some areas like the rockers and a dent on the hood. Any info would be great, thanks.
