Do all 67.5 2000's have solexes?

No. The majority of people think the only the early ones came with them, I will dissagree because all the ones that have a VIN of less than 500 seem to have new style ones (that I have seen), to replace the Sus, and the cars after 500 seem to have old style ones that would point to those not being replaced. I know car 199 came with SUs, and 688 came with solexs. If you search for the topic you will find volumes of posts on this topic.

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

There was a thread about this earlier and I compiled a lot of information regarding it. Both of the 67.5 2000s that I had were originally solex cars, but there is no rhyme or reason to which got solex and which didn't. Nissan didn't care to keep records.

Why do you ask?

I believe that technically the "SUs" were actually made by Hitachi, and the "Solexes" by Mikuni. But whatever. 8)

And to me, Panasports just look like copies of Minilites. So there! :P
