No, not in 1980. Nissan first offered a factory turbo as an option on the 280ZX in 1981. It was available that year only with an automatic and a 2 passenger car. In 1982-83 the turbo could be purchased with 5-speed manual, auto, and in either 2 or 4 passenger versions. The L28 turbo engine can be installed in the older model Z-cars though.

Can you put a turbo in a 1980 Datsun 280zx?
Yes, you can install a turbocharger in a 1980 Datsun 280ZX, but it requires significant modifications to the engine and supporting components. You'll need to consider upgrading the fuel system, intercooler, exhaust, and potentially the engine internals to handle the increased power and boost levels. It's advisable to consult with a professional or someone experienced in turbo conversions to ensure a successful and reliable installation.
What is the gas mileage on a 1981 280zx?
I have a pair of 1980 280zx's 1 is stock 1 has a 60mm throttle body and I get average 29 mpg and 27 mpg the 1981 is the same L28 engine so should be about the same unless its a Turbo then I dont know and 1981 is the first year of the Turbo option Arturo Checking my mpg many times for several years on my 1981 280ZX, I averaged 23.7 MPG. With the cruise control on 55MPH, I never approached getting 25MPG even when driving 100% on the highway. I don't believe the above poster, Arturo, is getting even 27MPG with his 1980 models, let alone 29MPG. I consider the 29MPG ridiculous. And no, I didn't have the "turbo option" on my 280ZX that Arturo mentions. Curtis

The distributor cap and rotor for the 1979 Datsun 280ZX and 1980 280ZX should be the same as they both use the L28 inline-six engine. However, it's always best to verify part compatibility by comparing part numbers or consulting with a parts specialist.

Production numbers for 1980 turbo formula firebirds?
As far as I know...ZERO. The turbo engine was a Trans Am option. I've never seen or heard of a 1980 Formula with one. But I suppose that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Is a 1980 Datsun 280zx transmission the same as a 1981 Datsun 280zx transmission?
Yes. For the most part all 1979-1983 280zx transmissions are pretty much the same, manual to manual and auto to auto. The turbo transmission from 81-83 however is a Borg Warner T-5 style toploader. Something tells me through experience is that they will bolt up to a non turbo motor, but the driveshafts and rear end will need to be changed. Also, be aware that the older Z's from 70-78 will bolt up, but the driveshafts would definitely need to be swapped, especially if you are putting a 4 speed into it for whatever reason.
