I have a 1983 280zx, so I can tell you based on personal experience that it will run, however your mileage and performance will go down and it could damage your fuel system.
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.

This is not a job for a driveway mechanic.
What is the process for installing a new timing chain for a 1980 datsun 280zx?
It has an automatic clutch. Therefore it doesn't have a cable.
In the 1980 Nissan 280ZX, the lower speedometer cable is located on the driver's side of the passenger compartment, typically near the base of the dashboard. It connects to the speedometer head, which is mounted in the instrument cluster. To access it, you may need to remove the lower dash panel or trim pieces to reach the cable connection.
Yes, nothing really changed bodywise until the 1982 model year.
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.
