Description:

Condition:
Vehicle is in great running shape and has no major mechanical issues. Engine was recently rebuild (147 miles ago) and sparco pro 2000 seats and sliders were installed with sparco 4 inch belts bolted to the frame since these vehicles didn't come with airbags. The engine that was rebuild is a later model 280z Naturally aspirated 2.8l bored to 3.0 and had all pistons replaced. The head was refurbished. The cam cleaned up at the time but the car will come with a brand new isky cam upon purchase if you decide to use it that is up to you. The car also has an upgraded arizona z car radiator with electric fan as the old one was insufficient for the larger engine. Front and rear sway bars have been installed. Has 16 x 9 american racing wheels all around but the tread on the tires is getting low and they will need to be replaced soon. Exhaust is a 6 to 2 headers which are joined to one 2.25 exhaust pipe. Carbs are mikuni phh purchased from wolf creek racing late last year specifically tuned for this build but will include a carb balancer and additional jets so you can tune it as you see fit. Fuel pump was replaced with an electric holley fuel pump which sits behind the passenger side rear wheel. Fuel pump regulator in the engine bay ensures perfect pressure for carbs. Fuel tank replaced with a harwood racing fuel cell with return fuel line setup. 10 point racing cage has also been installed.
History: I am the third owner of this car it was originally made and build to be an SCAA race car and run as such until 2008 when it was bought and converted into a show car. I acquired it in 2010 and have worked to restore it back into an SCAA race car. Currently the only part not in spec are the race seats which expired in 2008 but everything else including belts and power train selection make this vehicle legal for racing. Has been garage kept since I acquired it. Drove last week to finish the break in on the engine and has since been stored.
