kats Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share #446 Posted February 1, 2013 Kats,Here are the wing nuts on #32. They are the same early style as on your Z432. -Mike Hi Mike, Today I looked up wingnuts of both cars, I found that they are different in its bolt size. I thought your 1969 240Z has same wingnut just like Z432 as-E4201, but it does not, yours is special wingnut for SU carb system. Is your wingnut bolt thicker than the Z432 type is not it? Attached picture is, the left is for the black air box just behind of the front bumper, the middle is for the orange air box in the engine room, the right is for the SU carb airbox. They are not interchangeble each other. kats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hr369 Posted March 22, 2013 Share #447 Posted March 22, 2013 Kats, have you seen this video Japan's retro car kings on youtube? At 6:15 the owner of TA auto shows a picture of a unrestored fairlady with the 432 emblem. From the bad picture its difficult to see if its a true 432. I know you have been tracking vin numbers of the remaining 432's in Japan and might be interested in seeing this car in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kats Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share #448 Posted April 11, 2013 Hello hr369, Yes I saw this TV and Ando San is a great restorer who worked some parts for me.

Taz0162 Posted October 2, 2013 Share #450 Posted October 2, 2013 Carl,8-track tapes are quite available, new and used. I have a brand new Datsun option 8-track player for the head unit in a 510. Interested? I'll even throw in "Alice's Restaurant". Frankly, it's more difficult to find an original player like Kats' that still works. Mine works.(Edit) BTW the part # for the player I have is 99993-00206-80 "8 track deck" universal chassis. Brand new in the Datsun box.So I just snagged one of these new in box. where/how were they installed? Not sure If Im installing but like this option and definite conversation starter.~Taz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarvo2 Posted October 2, 2013 Share #451 Posted October 2, 2013 Here is the instruction sheet that came with my 8-track. It was installed in the glovebox (which needs to be cut in the back!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz0162 Posted October 10, 2013 Share #452 Posted October 10, 2013 @Jarvo2 looks like you have the Beltek unit that I have been looking for. The one I have coming is a Datsun Hitachi unit. That's the first set of directions that I have sen for it. Glovebox installation is not a concern as I already installed a HD Radio there and could relocate that elsewhere or remove at anytime. I have a toggle in the glovebox to switch between the stock and HD radio setups. if you ever want to part with that Beltek unit let me know.~Taz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarvo2 Posted October 11, 2013 Share #454 Posted October 11, 2013 @TAZ -- I actually sold the unit last year to a guy in the UK (I think for about $450). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kats Posted May 21, 2014 Author Share #456 Posted May 21, 2014 Hi, sorry I have not updated more than a year, now I am back. Here is the latest S20 engine sound of my car, I have been trying to find the best condition of the Mikuni Solex carbs, here is the best what I can do so far. Kats PS : the valve cover was dirty, after this shot I have the cover painted to its original color shown in the top cover of the old magazine.
