old skool fairlady z question.

did we ever get the z432 in the united states. what i mean is this car in this video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4ocdL9QXLw&NR=1\

instead of having the L28 motor it had a 432 motor made by Prince motor co. this motor is amazing and i'd love to get one of these before i die. 1970's nissans/ datsuns are way cooler than muscle cars.

if not, i want this head. if its even possible to find. lol

stoked l31 with KA24DE head, machined and put together for the six cylinders, some dude on hybridZ made it. the 432 was never in the states and finding a decent one in japan is 100k + not to mention the os giken head is super rare.

Until I see this in real life, I will not believe that it is something that was really done.
