tank of premium and a ton of fuel system cleaner, doing the wires/ignition,

for a z31 yeah, that would be good to do.

93oc is a must on z32s
fuel system cleaners, depending can Fudge up the z32s
and there are no wires to replace on Z32s.

i was like, WTF.. till i saw, z31.. that's all.

Coil on plug? Those cleaners can have negative side effects on pretty much any car.

Make sure all vacum hoses are connected and replace the dry rotted ones. Everything else sounds good.
