Syah_Awesome Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Hi guys. Just recently discovered this forum and I need some help. Slight overview, I'm currently in Malaysia so OEM and junkyard parts for 280zx are almost non-existent I currently own a rb25 swapped 280zx 2+2 but my steering rack needs to be replaced. Are there any other models that share the same steering rack or is a popular swap? I've been searching through the inter-web but could not find much info on steering. The only info i got is someone swapped with a s13 unit but there was little mention on whether it was straight swap or that he needed to cut the firewall/crossmember etc. I tried to pm him but it seems he was last active on that forum in Oct 2015 so not much hope there.

datzenmike Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Manual or power R&P steering? Try the Nissan dealer for a rebuild kit or perhaps the part or parts that need replacing. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 at the very least there are members here from all over the world and you could get one shipped to you. Quote Link to comment
Syah_Awesome Posted April 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 @Lockleaf - Haha I'd love to upload some pics of The Mistress but the ISP at my workplace blocks any image sharing site so I'll upload once I get off my shift. @datzenmike - its power r&p steering. I'll research more on a rebuild kit. As of now, she is still in the workshop as there was a few issues when I drove her back to my hometown. FYI I'm not that mechanically competent, I can do basic maintenance so I hope the rebuild job is not that intimidating. But then again, why not take it as a learning assignment @skib - I was just wondering if anyone on the forum would be willing to ship internationally. Thanks for advice, I'll look up the classified section. Cheers guys :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
CGraves Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 There is a 280zx in a junkyard near me. I can go check it out and if the steering rack is what you are looking for/any good I can get it for you if you pay shipping. I live in the US so I'm not sure how much it would cost.
