...and they lived happily ever after. -- The End --

I think the rise in price of early S30 cars and parts over the past year seems to be causing a current rush to sell, the market seems saturated. I hope it settles down and continues to rise.

Just wondering

All you EFI folks..,. if you want to disable your car in a pinch: Disconnect EFI fusible link (at battery). Non EFI: Could be a lot of fun a Zcon

Hi Alan, Not much info on the part. It appears in a photo of shell HS30-00741 in Australia. The photos were taken a while ago. I saw the application then remembered Kats thread. Here is the Aus info: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/13773-early-girl-bingo-with-photos/?p=192129 https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNl5Dbc6AlAPDlauRJ5eaLA8JMaql4Oee-fzrc9jUBQcg8UYa18piZD58gTZ1jLGQ?key=NVJGLU1oTGZvM1Y2VGx5Ymp2dW9UOGFIR3h4OGNR

Poor Mr. Matsuo had to wait a year to get the car he designed!

Fake Fusible link to ECU harness?

I was lucky and had a helper!

On the to do list with my delayed 72 restoration. Each fastener will be measured, photographed, and catalogued on line. Below is a somewhat related Nissan fastener document General-Datsun Torque Specifications.pdf

One of the few Z's that has an engine compartment that looks full!

Looks like $600 is the going price. I think your early one may command more if you can find any casting differences to differentiate it.

Kats I am like you in the mirror trade.....I just bought the one in the first post. I am hoping it is an early mirror but it could be from a 510 or other Datsun I'm picking it up at Zcon in Texas so hopefully Zup or other experts may console me.

I always wondered if one could peel a dash, refresh the foam then fit a dash cap on it to replace the one that was peeled. Just some heated expansion of the tach. and speedo holes to fit these devices in from the front would make it functional . What say ye?

Kats, that one is on Yahoo Japan Auction for ~ $700 https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b188580701 How much are the original 432R mirrors selling for?
