Looks like maybe late 70's 710 or 810.

...and if those are new 280zx rotors, why aren't they vented?

Early 710 calipers look identical to PL510 calipers........ Late 710 calipers (post 09/75) have pins holding the pads and dual pistons

I have no idea what struts or calipers you have.............. maybe this will help:

From left to right: shortened 510 strut... . .... stock 710 strut.... .... stock 280zx strut

Much better picture!

It's definitely not from a 610 or the '77-'79 200sx but could be from a 710 built after '75 and is also consistent with ones from a '78-'79 620, S110 and the '80-'83 720 2wd. The piston diameter would have to be measured to be sure.

Likely from the 710.

That is not a ZX rotor, ZX rotors are vented. I think it may be one of the following 240/260 or 280 Z setup.
