I'm running Triple Solex 40mm DCOE's and are having trouble with them.
I'm using the Mikuni Short Runner Manifold, and an electrical fuel pump (Holley Blue regulated down to three PSI)
I bought them from the "Italian Carb Guy" and rebuilt them. Where can I get jets, floats, and needles for these guys?

Let me know if you need some more links...
The last ones that you are referring to (the red flower looking ones) are called Sakura Cherry Blossom wheels or something like that...VEREY VERY VERY HARD TO FIND!
However I have a set of these old school JDM SSRs (Small but mine!)
Sizes are 15x6.5 and 15x7 both with 0 offset so that's a 3.25 inch lip in the front an 3.5 inch lip in the rear.
I'm actually in Westminster/Midway City, if you're in Huntington Beach, we meet every so often in Huntington Beach @ a Pizza Parlor off of Warner and Bolsa Chica. Give me your email or your AIM screen name and I'll keep you posted! I would love to check out your Z.
I am planning to run triple carbs and enjoy the fun out of it.
But later I want to build a turbo blow by system. Build an air box plenum to hook up around the air horns on the carbs. Then run an intercooler and piping. I'm just wondering who has done this swap, how it's done, and if you have any pixes or advice, that would be MUCHO THANKED UPON!!!
I've seen the hoods, I admit, they are worth every penny, and I'm all about that carbon fiber look, since it'll match the gun-metal on my rims...
I think i've got about 400 bucks in change in a bucket...it's getting tempting...
