FLAME ON! hahaha

dude. they are direct bolt on.

you will need to cut dust shields to clear the brakes, 5 lug or redrill to 4 lug pattern for rotors.

conversion lines. which are already available.

if you opt on changing the rears as well you have to or should get the z32 MC = master cylinder. and get the e brake cables.

also make sure you have wheels that will have good clearance for the brakes.

thats about it in a nut shell.

search, these questions have been answered over and over.. frankly it gets annoying

what year z32? The "30mm Aluminum" calipers were used on 1990 Twin-turbos and ALL 1991-1992.5 300ZX's (both turbo and non-turbo alike). They used a 280mm x 30mm rotor. <-- these would be best because of size and weight

where can you get the e-brake cables? again search, R33 and Z32 2+2 I believe work but don't trust my word because I'm not positive.

will they fit 16 inch se wheels? depends, I remember reading that some have letting that gets in the way of the caliper while others don't

hopefully that helps

search please next time
