Get some pics up of the kind of thing you like, I know there's a few heavily stanced ones out there but that's not to everyones taste.

They're WIDE ! I had a series of 200SX's - the 300s feel like the same silhouette but sliced up the middle and a 6" strip inserted ;D Motors give serious grunt from 0 rpm unlike the smaller Nissans which give a kick when the turbos spool up ;D Definite Cannonball material

We had one on a magazine I worked on ten years ago, I loved what it could do but really loathed the interior. So that's where I'd start my work, then coilovers and wheels... They're a good shape

I heart Z32's and will own one once I can justify it! They really seem to be gaining popularity on the other side of the pond as well. Unless I'm just beginning to notice it more now.

I have a Z32.
They are great cars and the power delivery is nothing short of brutal. I have a Mines chip in it mind you which does make a difference.
They are niggly and a PITA to work on. that engine bay is crammed, especially the turbocharged ones.
That said, I've had mine for over 18 months and it's never proper broken on me and I've had it the length and breadth of the country on a regular basis.
It's tucked up under a tarp for winter now.
