I have some I bought from Woody a couple of years ago that it looks like I probably won’t use as I'm waiting for Sean to finish the development of his system to fit the original manifold. I think they’ll fit a 260z ...

The importance is to be compatible with the OEM 260Z 'flat-top' carbs whose choke mechanisms are much deeper descending than the OEM 240Z 'round-tops'.

I didn't know that. Do you happen to have an appropriate exhaust manifold?

Yes, two, the choice of which depends upon your level of engine tune/upgrade...and end car-use ;)

Fast-Road and Race-Sport.

I think mine is this one:

It says it fits the 260Z

https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/15-6012CH

$368 - converts to £267 roughly.

In the spirit of the club etc I'd want no more than what I gave Mark for it - which was £180 +postage.

Seriously ? You reccomend an exhaust system of £2300 + shipping + customs, part stainless-steel with a manifold of 48mm primary pipes for a stock 260Z ?

Well-built parts but not just a little OTT , especially for a stock L26 ?


Which JDM models of the following had flat-top carbs ?

Nissan Fairlady Z GS30 L20 (10/1971-08/1975)
Nissan Fairlady Z GS30 L20E (09/1975-06/1976)
Nissan Fairlady Z GS31 L20E (07/1976-07/1978)
Nissan Fairlady Z S30 L20 (10/1971-08/1975)
Nissan Fairlady Z S30 L20E (09/1975-06/1976)
Nissan Fairlady Z S30 L26 (09/1975-07/1978)
Nissan Fairlady Z S30 L26 (10/1971-08/1975)

No, I'd recommend the fujitsubo system as the best compromise between performance/cost and quality.

I recommended the steel centre and silencer from spirit garage, as its great value for money and fits nicely.
