Why do 240Zs and 280Zs share the same chassis numbers ? HS30 !
I had a terrible time helping someone register a 280Z over here and eventually it has '240Z' on the docs. with a note underneath stating that it is a 280Z ! The computer wouldn't accept HLS30 for anything other than a 240Z. I know that the 280Z wasn't homologated here but neither was the 260Z 2 seater but one can register an RLS30 - I know of two over here.
And did the 280Z have bonnet louvres because it was found that after nearly 6 years of production, under-bonnet temps needed help ? I thought that Nissan had a continuous improvement program (so typical of the Japanese) and in which case, I'm surprised it wasn't seen before - it could have helped the 260Z at least !
