CHP 260z ? ? ! ?

[WingZr0]

OK So I'm researching and curently restoreing the 2nd

more "RAREER" version of a ANSA for the S30Z's.

By Rareer I'm the only one I've ever seen and it's still NOS

only cause of factory defects of messed up stickers and glue everywhere.

In my research apperantly it seems ANSA only made 2 kinds for the 240Z,

the Twin Stack Slash Cut Tip and a Side by Side style that was angled up at

the chrome section with Slash tips aswell, making the edge of the chrome

perpendicular to the vertical so to speak.

Now heres where the Question begins,

for the 260Z the same 2 ANSA's where made but with 2 inch diamter inlets as

opposed to the 240Z with 1 and 7/8ths inlets.

And ALSO a 3rd was made with side by side, angled up with

none slash cut chrome tips coming out a flat laying "muffler" shaped body

labled as "C.H.P." !

Did the California Highway Patrol ever S30Z cars?

And so are ther any pictures or history on these babies or does CHP mean

something else in this case?

I often here of the Z for the Ontario Motor Speedway back in the

70's but no one seems to know what happend to it either.

I'll post pics when I can.

I seem to recall some rather strict California noise emission standards back in the day. Seems to me that many motorcycle exhaust makers offered a "CHP approved" version that was quieter. This may be what Ansa was doing also.
