Ok well I'm just gettin back in to classic imports again, this Friday I'm pickin up a 83 280zx n/a five speed. I was told that the ecu is fried hence why its not runnin. Its has the a11-652-805 now I've been lokin around and they seem kinda odd ball to come by so do I have to use the exact ecu or could I use one of the other years and/or diffrent numbered ecu? I search for alittle bit but didn't come up with much, if anyone has a workin one and wants to sell that would work for me as well. Seems a lot more relaxed here then most of the other car forums that I've had to deal with in the past few years.

Thanks for your time.

Welcome to ZDriver!

I moved this thread to the 280ZX section (240z-280z is from 70-78).

Any 81-83 n/a ecu will work. What's your location?

Sorry thought I had posted it there. I'm in central new jersey. So as long as its a n/a ecu from 81-83 i t shouldn't have a problem?

You got it. Just make sure when you grab an ECU, the electrical connector is free of grease/corrosion/moisture/etc.

I actualy just found one on ebay with a you best offer thing and got it for 50 bucks shipped to my door.

So yesterday the new ecu I got off ebay came in, I was pumped to get to the car plug it in and turn the keyand the battery died so I got a jump and hoped it would fire up but I got nothing the fuel pump came on primed for its 5 second and everything looked like it was good and it just cranked nothing, left it kinda on a down note. So I went back tonight with a can of carb cleaner and she chuged for a second or two and screamed to life haven't been so pumped to hear a car start since I got my rx-7 when I was 17 and I haven't been so pumped to drive since that one. Sorry for the long post but ill be around and taking a lot of pictures when I start ripping in to it, thanks for the help on the ecu.
Later
