You will be lucky to find anyone in Oz that knows how to set up a 280ZX, which with its semi trailing arm rear suspension should make a good drifter. Don't know if a search will mention that all the original suspension rubber bushes will need replacing, preferably with poly ones, particularly the rear.

i custom bult my drift setup, i have kyb real sports dampers, 4 way adjustable and brp coilovers, i went with 8kg/mm front 6 kg/mm rear or 450 front 350 rear in american terms. ive made alot of custom arts to help the car drift better, the most important is steering angle mods, get some azc or motorsport short steering knucles, and remove the spacers at a minimum, and i cut the rack shorter and made more teeth, still not the angle the s13/14 chassis are getting but way better than stock. if you need some more advice on drift set up hit me up.
