cygnusx1 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Probably EVILC's. lol. Welcome to the site. You will need to learn the differences between all of them. They can all have problems, and they can all be perfect. They differ so much that the problems can be unique to each year. The one common denominator is RUST. You are in the right part of the country for that though. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators BRAAP Posted April 30, 2009 Administrators Share Posted April 30, 2009 All of them and none of them. I'm being serious. It really depends on how far you plan or end up modding the car as to which common issues will get eliminated in the mods performed, if those issues have not already been dealt with by the previous owner. If you going V-8, then many of the carburetor or EFI issues are no longer and issues, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrayZee Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I know the 240z is always sought after as it is lighter and more classic. However most 240z owners that modify it for alot more power end up putting in the bigger diff and strenghtening (and lengthening) the frame rails. 240's need extra stuff if you want to add fuel injection. Of course the 280z already has injection, the R200 and better rails. I have also found that the electrical system in the newer ones are superior. One of the biggest downfalls of the later Z's is the ugly/heavy bumpers. Those of course can be removed. Motorsport has a nice body kit for that. Overall I think the 280 is more solid and better built than the 240, but that's just my opinion. If someone was in the market for a old Z I would just tell them to buy the best one they can find for the money regardless of the model.
