I've seen a lot of nikkis but this looks more like something from a fuel injection system to me .

Definitely NOT a carb. Looks like the throttle body from a GSL-SE.

Somebody should mail him (I have no mail access right now) and tell him he's wrong.

Yep, definitely a Mazda pre-86 EFI throttle body. Looks exactly the same as the one I had on my 84 12AT Cosmo. It sat in the same place as the Nikki carbs did. People couldn’t figure out why I had a “carb” and an airflow meter!
BTW, these are actually made by Nikki!
