Retro-ing 300zx airbags in a 280

Is this possible without much difficulty? I understand the issues with a coil-over spring and airbag sensor, but if I could find a place for the airbag sensor and do the custom wiring could this airbag be fitted into the 280? I love the car, but parents have strict rules against a car w/out airbags, which leaves me high and dry here unless the installation isn't too incredibly difficult. I can the wiring underneath the carpets myself and install the new steering wheel. Main concern would be changing to a non-coil-over spring steering wheel to one, and steering-wheel fitting size and possability of the new wiring.

Re: Retro-ing 300zx airbags in a 280

It would not be worth the money my friend... with the amount of money you would spend to retrofit air-bags you could probably buy a good running car with air-bags installed already! The only advice I have to you is: KILL YOUR PARENTS! AIR-BAGS ARE OVERRATED ANYWAYS! I don't have air-bags... and I will probably die a horrible death like Jimmy Dean but who gives a fuck? You are gonna die one way or another, right?

Is your 280ZX turbo?

a-ha! sucker!... lol
i don't like airbags, the idea of a piece of fabric being hurtled at my face at 300 kph or whatever isn't exactly my cup of tea..
