The frame on the 2+2 280 is stronger than the 240/260's. You should still and some more stiffners if you ever intend on a serious launch with it. The rear is also better than the older ones as it is larger and heavier and possibly may have the cv shafts I am thinking of swapping into mine. The floor should be perfect before anyting is started so you can get started on the right foot. God luck.

A 2+2 is a 4 seat version of the 280zx. If you have a back seat, you have a 2+2. the car is set up the same, it's just longer, so your driveshaft will be longer, and you won't get the same weight transfer on launch, because of the longer wheelbase. The front will not come up as fast. That may be good depending on how fast you want to go, but it also hinders traction. But it all depends on how fast you're going to go.
