ok when i save up to get a new alternator ill test it out n see what happens. i still want to replace the links though because the one wasnt looking too good. it was all green inside and stuff. if anyone has a set of front fenders and they wana sell them cheap that would be good. feel free to post anymore info you know or find out. thanks - tim

It's a ZX, not a Z. I don't mind helping if I can since there are some similar components between the Z and the ZX but call the car what it is.

X its a z to me. i like saying z more than zx

Yes, but Z owners are rather particular of their cars. Besides, you wouldn't call a Bull Dog a Bull Terrier when going to the vet, yes? Proper namesake helps alot in diagnosis.

yea i see what ya mean. im the same way when people say the name of my 4 wheeler wrong.

Try ebay type Datsun 280z and your on your way!

That's 280ZX! :classic:

watch out RC they'll bite your nuts off if you dont say it right. other than that they are good, very helpful people.

calling a ZX a Z is like calling a Fiat a Ferarri.

Hey, Tim, it's all in fun. I'm just not a fan of any of the 79 and up ZX's. That doesn't mean that you can't be.

yea i know what ya mean. whats wrong with the ZX tho. its still sexy. and runs greeaat except for the problem i got goin on right now. what makes the z so much better. ??

They're lighter, the body differences are striking when compared side by side and just general preference. If you prefer the ZX, then it's better. For you.
