What engine do you have? L28? Read up on some Z boards if so, I know they've got some info on L-series upgrades. Here's one link I've stashed:

In search of an MQ (offset) H233b rear, housing only preferred, plus a complete GQ or GU front (4.6 ratio ideal) to be shipped to the US. Cheap! Email/PM if you can help.

i did full efi conversion for under $500

don't bother with any lessor setups for similar $$$

if you are desperate get an electronic ignition kit for under $100 from dick heads or jaycar. still uses you points - just without the high loads at the points.

cheers

Pirana kits good value at around $280, I killed mine with a good splashing inside the engine bay, so went to a Crane Fireball kit & High Energy Coil inside a weatherproof box.
Search back a bit under Nissan & Auto electrics for heaps of threads on GQ Electronic Ignition.
