TrumpetRhapsody Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 So yeah I'm still new to the Z scene (don't even have one yet), so this is probably a dumb question. I was reading through some threads, and someone mentioned wanting someone else's "turbo hood". It struck me that I've seen some 280zx's without the little triangular hood air intake. This makes me beg the question: does the N/A hood not have it, and the turbo hood does? Or was he generalizing "turbo hood" to specify which car's hood he wanted? First pic: "triangular hood air intake" Second pic: example of hood without intake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismopick Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 79-81 non turbos have the twin black scoops. 81 turbo and all 82-83 have the turbo "NACA" hood scoops. You should prolly read up on the history of the 280zx: http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z6299/default.aspx http://www.zcca.org/pages/ZCarsZhistory.htm http://members.aol.com/KarlWS/zhistory.html http://www.zhome.com/History/10thAnniv.htm Oh... the joys of using Google.
