  Nissan 240Z 115mm C/W Quaife ATB differential - Quaife Engineering
Rather, the Nissan 240Z 115mm C/W Quaife ATB differential automatically biases the torque away from the spinning wheel across the axle, to a constantly varying degree, and never locks.
The Nissan 240Z 115mm C/W Quaife ATB differential has many benefits over a standard open differential, including maximising traction and minimizing wheelspin, eliminating torque steer and snatching in front wheel drive cars compared to conventional LSD units, and a maintenance-free design which retains the standard oil lubrication.
The Nissan 240Z 115mm C/W Quaife ATB differential is proven in circuit and drag racing, rallying and road use, and is produced from Corus steel billets, and is CAD designed and CNC machined, then inspected to ISO 9001 standards.

  350Z on Wikipedia - The Nissan 350Z Wiki
Nissan then proceeded to keep the Z name going by contracting a restoration company in California to restore 240Zs at a loss and selling them at dealers which continued until its financial problem became known in 1998.
Nissan was however unhappy with the first design as they felt the car was considered too "retro" or too "backward" resembling a futuristic 240Z thus a redesign was underway.
Nissan's performance and motorsport division, Nismo, began producing performance and aesthetic upgrades for the 350Z shortly after its release.

 Nissan Z-car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Japanese 240Z featured a twin cam L20 inline-6 producing 130 hp that came from the Nissan Skyline and met FIA European racing regulations, while the US 240Z had a L24 inline-6 with twin SU carburetors that produced 151 hp.
The first two generations (240Z/260Z/280Z and 280ZX) of Z-car were powered by a Straight-6, (part of the L-series of Nissan engines, which powered most of their vehicles until the early 1980s) with a displacement of 2.4 L in the first incarnation, and increasing to 2.6 L and 2.8 L in the 260Z, and the 280Z and ZX, respectively.
The 240Z, and to a lesser degree the 260Z and 280Z, were well-regarded for their light weight and good balance, which contributed to their speed and handling.
