Yes and No - the Fairlady Z was sold in Japan with a L20a engine with twin SU carbs, the S20 engined 432 (the one you talk about = rare and low numbers produced) with DOHC 2000cc with triple solex carbs, then in 72 when the local tax/registration laws changed the HS30 aka Fairlady 240z as sold in Japan. Then there was the ZG or as internal coded within Nissan as the HS30-H which again was a Fairlady 240z and badge as such.

 

JDM can be tricky to understand but they did have the 240z with the L24 and twin SU's :)
