Can I swap 81 floor pans to a 76?

[Comrade_Charlie]

I know the 81 and 76 bodys are different but are the floor pans the same, I tell people I have a 76 with rusty floor pans and I have a 81, and they say cant you just take the 81 floor pans, I dont know, the 76 is at my budys house so I cant measure it. are there any difference in floor pans(I dont care about see mounting, im replacing those.

[Comrade_Charlie]

I would guess the answer is no, I remebered msa sells floor pans and I figured that if they were seperated by year, that would mean that they are indeed different. But I remeber looking in the 76 and I think the seat mounts are different(Ill check tomorrow, I remeber how the 76 went but not the 81). So if the seat mounts are different then msa would have 2 different kits.

 

I really dont know without having the two cars together but im crushing one to get the other, so I think the best idea is just to cut the floor pans out of the 81 since they are rust free.

And then this site talks about 240z's, 280z's and 280zx's(but says 75-78). eh ill just cut them out.

You can probably go through all the trouble of cutting the '81 floors out and making them fit your '76. Why do twice the work?

 

Your better off to contact Charlie at Zedd Findings and do it right the first time.
