IT_SS Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Well folks, I'm the proud new owned of an 83 280! I love this thing!! The antenna feature, the gauge position, the A3 shifter handle, I love it!!! And best of all, its a T-Top, best $400.00 I've spent yet. So this weekend I'm doing maitnence, and I have a few questions: Suggested oil/weight ? (I typically use mobil 1) Spark plug brand/gap? Suggested fuel? (91 is as good as it get around here)? I've never dealt with a cap & rotor car befor, so any advice there would be helpful This will be my DD so I want to make her last for as long as I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportBikeMike Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Any pics? I love the 280ZX 2+2's with the t-tops. Thats what my first Z was (although it was an '81). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
