At the risk of looking like I'm arguing against myself here (I'm not really, just trying to keep this Japan thread going a bit longer), I have a 1981 Nishiki Professional with full Campy NR group and TTT bars & stem. I also have the original catalog showing the exact same offering. The Pro was offered before and after that (IIRC) with Japanese components. My '73 Nishiki Pro is all Japanese (mostly Suntour).

Also, the Zunow Z-1 was offered as an all-Campy model (wish I had one of those, too).

I suspect that neither was a big seller, nor would an all-Campy Fuji. At least you don't see many around.
