Rear coilovers for those cars are not the same. bottom bolt bushing on 280zx is 20mm inside diameter and 510 is 16mm. 280zx has 3 bolt shock tower with camber plate while the 510 has 1 single bolt with rubber bushings.
How do these compare to CX Racing coilovers?
Based on our 12 years of experience the quality is not as good. I had one customer contact me and sent me pictures of his wheel that fell off the car while he was driving. The CX racing shock absorber cracked in half and the whole wheel ripped off while driving. other customers have contacted me complaining about their shocks exploding. We have never had one single customer explode their shock to this day.
