hahahahaha, good luck. Hope you have some welding experience, and are good with a saw and a good mind for engineering and troubleshooting. In theory, it is a great idea. Unfortunately, Nissan thought they would be cool and go with the dual throttle body intake manifold design. The problem with this? There is no room in the engine bay of a Z32. Want to replace a timing chain in one of those cars? It's going to cost you about $1500 at a Nissan repair center. You practically have to take the whole car apart to reach anything in it. Want me to prove my point? Go find a Z32TT, pop the hood and point at the turbo, not in the general area, the actual turbo. You won't be able to see them, except maybe for a tiny little part of it, through the maze of vaccum hoses and controls under the hood of that car.

I know the VG30E(T) is an older, low techy engine, but it can still be a monster. One of my buddies has a Z31T, and that thing is insane, and he hasn't put that much money into it. Just work with that car, there aren't enough Z31's rolling around, and it would be nice to have some more of them.
