Details
This 1974 Datsun is an example of the one-year-only 260Z. The body has been freshly repainted GM black by Z specialist Sakura Garage. It sports slim front bumpers and an MSA front air dam. This example is the early-model 260Z, which means it shares trim, body panels, bumpers, lights and miscellaneous features of the 240Z. The engine is a built 2.8-liter inline 6-cylinder from a later 280Z. The build includes high-compression pistons, a cam and heavy-duty valvetrain. The Straight-6 has a set of dual Weber 32/38 downdraft carburetors mated to a set of Canon intake manifold adapters. The exhaust breathes through an early-generation 6-2-1 header (brand unknown). Fuel gets its pressure from a fresh mechanical fuel pump. The cooling system has been revamped with an aluminum radiator and fresh hoses. Maintenance has been completed meticulously, and all fluids are fresh, with no leaks. Power is delivered through a late-model rear differential. The suspension on the Z has also been updated with a set of Sakura Garage stance coilovers with custom top-mount camber plates. Valving spring rates are specifically suited for the Z cars. The brakes have been recently refreshed with aggressive compound brake pads, a fresh brake booster and rebuilt drums. Miscellaneous suspension components and bushings have been replaced where needed. The car is riding on 15x8 Atara Racing wheels wrapped in 225/50/15 Toyo R888R tires. The interior is primarily stock, and the steering wheel has been replaced with a fresh MOMO Prototipo unit. The seats are in good shape and the shifter has been rebuilt, so it has no play and the shifts are extremely precise. The car came from the factory with an AM/FM radio, which is still installed, but not currently hooked up to speakers. The engine, transmission and differential setup is perfect for spirited drives, but balance well for cruising on the freeway. The suspension and tire combo make it handle like it's on rails. **TITLED AS 1974 DATS UNKNOWN**
