Great info on the history of the 280ZX Turbo: History of the 1978-1983 Datsun 280ZX The Datsun 240Z was a game changer when in debuted in late 1969. Reliable, ast, nd a bargain, he Z instantly redefined what a sports car could be. For British and Italian competition, t was like the comet that killed the dinosaurs. Like anything else, owever, ll good things must come to an end and by the late 1970s the original concept was beginning to run its course. The 280Z was essentially a 240Z with big impact bumpers and fuel injection. Datsun needed something newer and flashier. Enter the Datsun 280ZX in 1978. Sports car purists who watched the Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE) Datsuns clean up were horrified. The ZX was a GT for the disco era with two-tone paints, -tops, elour seats, nd fancy stereos. It was certainly softer and less sporting, ut it filled a niche well and like the 260Z and 280Z was available in a 2+2 body, hich the ZX seemed to fill out better than the previous cars. Ironically, he 280ZX was raced successfully too in some cases by actor Paul Newman. With added weight, erformance predictably suffered. In order to deal with this, issan offered a turbocharger option starting in 1981 that raised power output from about 140 hp to 180 hp. Brakes and suspension were subsequently improved in 1982 making the last two model years of the turbo the most performance oriented of the 280ZX. The last two years of the turbo in particular can be terrific cars for the money.
