TONY C Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 What are the differances in replacement floor pans for the 240/260 verses the 280? The reason I ask is that I found a set of new 240/260z floor pans and frame rails, local for $150 My car's build date is 2-75. Non emision car. Even tho it is a 280z I have had to get some parts from a 240z to fix it. Like the door latches and glass, switches, etc. Later 280z would not work. The car also has the deep spare tire hole. I have read that the rear frame rails are longer on the 280. Not sure tho. I figured that I would most likely get some Bad Dog's rails or fab my own that would run full length anyway. $150 seems too cheap too pass on. But I am capable of using sheet and fabbing them myself. This seems easier. I appreciate anyones advise on this. peace tc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZR8ED Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yup they are different. The rails do extend much further on the 280. The 240 stopped about halfway back. There may even been slight differences in the width, as if I recall correctly, the 280 transmission tunnel is slightly larger. Pass on the 240 floors for your 280. Scott.

evildky Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 the trans moutns on the series 1 chassis is different form all others, seat mounts are different, the floor pan joints are different and at somepoint they added the pocket for retractable seatbelts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
