I've had no luck finding then either. MSA has a Polyurethane "equivalent" that is designed with integral camber ajustment (anybody ever try these?), check these out. Motorsport! Street Camber Kit, Front, 70-78 240Z-260Z-280Z - The Z Store! Nissan-Datsun 240Z-260Z-280Z-280ZX-300ZX(Z31/Z32)-350Z-370Z Parts @ $130. Not bad.

As for affordable OEM parts availability, search for 54320-E4100 on ebay, there are a few OEM parts from a three supplies with these in stock for ~$55 a piece. Does your 260 have rear insulators the same short height as the fronts or same taller ones (54320-N3701) as 280's? The fiche seems to indicate 9/74 and later needs the taller ones but check before ordering. Only one ebay seller for the tall ones, at $162CDN.... MSA lists them too, @ $214.95

I just ordered from a Nissan dealer on ebay. the oem set was $ 57.33 each.I ordered part # 54320-e4100 for a 1974 early 260z. I will be installing in the rear with kyb struts and kyb boots and bump stop . the kyb bump stop is made from polyfoam which comes with the boot kit . they are not the urethane ones I hope they are ok? also I did see the motorsport auto one you are talking about but I really wanted rubber insulators for a better ride as I do not autocross just a sunday driver. I think the urethane will transmit to much of the road.I am replacing my tokico hps with kybs for a better ride . it was like driving a gocart haha
