Lockjaw Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 The halfshafts will work as long as you get r200 spindles that go in the diff from a 280z or Zx. Turbo's use CV axles, and if you want to use those, you have to do some fabricarion, or order adapters from Russ. You may also run into a problem with the flange for the driveshaft being different, ie the turbo one uses 14mm bolts, the regular 240 one uses 12. You can either swap the flanges, from another r200, or find a big drive shaft from a 280 zx and use that. Why not get a 3.9 out of a ZX instead? It would work better than the 3.56. Of course if you have the ZX trans with the .745 over drive, 3.56's are sweet on the interstate. You know you need to have the mustache bar from a 280z to right?
