Lynton Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 That choke knob could be a hand throttle knob similar to the Datsun 2000 sports ? Lynton Quote

HS30-H Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Actually I'm not sure if it is a 432-R din pocket, it might be a PS30 din pocket only? Usually the 432-Rs had a blanking plate like they did for the clock. So I may have made the conclusion accidentally. I wonder if you could order a Fairlady Z without a radio back in the day? Gav, It's nothing to do with the 432 or 432-R. 432 was technically 'Deluxe' spec, so they all had radios/8-track radios as standard spec. 'PZR' 432-R was technically 'Standard' spec so had no radio as stock equipment, same as Fairlady Z-S ('S30-S'). The Z-S had blanking plates over clock aperture, centre dash vent and radio aperture, but on the 432-R the clock aperture and eyeball vent holes were not even cut in the dash covering vinyl. The Z-S & PZR radio aperture blanking plate was flat not pocketed. Please remember that pretty much every 432-R sold to the general public was unique. The spec on small details like this was rather loose, to say the least. Some of them were made with heater/defrosters, some not. Some of them were made with gloveboxes and lids, some not. Some made with glovebox lids but no 'box' inside. The flat panel on Takeuchi san's 432-R radio aperture may or may not be original (there are a few things on his car which are like that...) and only one or two 432-Rs had choke and hand throttle controls relocated from the (missing) console to the dash area. It was all personal preference, and often modified by the supplying dealer. I've got one of the 68835-E4100 DIN bins (I'm rich...! Or maybe not... ) and you won't find it in any of the early Japanese market parts lists despite that 'E41' suffix indicating 1970 S30-specific parts. Best I can figure is that it was a rare option for music haters with short arms and deep pockets... Quote

I am only selling due to wanting to put an RB25 into my 260z otherwise I would get it dyno tuned with this setup. Has all been removed from vehicle and stock carbs put in place for the meantime.

Enzo Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Hi Gav, I got outbid on the sports option catalogue. Thought that it might be nice to have but it got too expensive for me. I have that valve cover which I will use on my new engine when I find the time to finish it. David Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted July 22, 2015 Administrators Posted July 22, 2015 David, I'm the bastard that outbid you. I will scan it to PDF and share with the community. That is 1 of the reasons I bought it. I didn't want it to disappear. Not sure it has any value to S30z racers. But it does show a lot of cool period parts. Quote
