HS30-H

Gav, I think they would be late S30's ( post '73 ) or S31's - so they'd be fitted with the later style dash from the Factory. They would look just like the '260Z' dash that the RS30 and RLS30 models got. If you spot a ZG-lookalike with the later dash then its certain proof that its not a 'real' ZG ( unless of course its had a later dash retro-fitted for some unknown reason.......:cross-eye:) It can be hard to pin down the age of some of the later Japanese S30 and S31 models, especially when they have been modified.

Trex, Wasn't your car originally a UK-market model? UK-model HS30 production went well into 1974 I think. Don't know which Japanese site you got the info from ( CLUB S30 or S30 Owners Club? ) but I think there is a possibility that you might have misunderstood what the figures related to. Don't forget that the Japanese domestic HS30 model was discontinued earlier than the UK / Australian models, and they dropped the "H" prefix when they went back to 2 litre engines at the end of 1973. The last of the UK-model HS30's were well-known for being a bit strange with regard to spec. They featured lots of parts that were later used on the RS30 models ( different inner wings, the thicker suspension legs etc etc ) - so its clear there was a bit of a grey area for a month or two when the model types changed over. I'm sure the Australian models must have been subject to the same conditions, and in reality its probably the case that all of the RHD models got a bit mixed up around this time. Contrast this with the LHD car situation, which was always a lot more clear cut, easy to understand and well documented.. Alan T.
