Message	That should be a fun car and if you can get a diff ratio you like, I would definitely suggest getting the collins adapter kit and the 350Z trans. I didn't go that route because I have a low mileage 95 Z32 trans, I thought I was going to be able to reuse my z speed shift bracket and my 1 piece driveshaft without modifying them, and I couldn't find a plug and play diff with a tall enough ratio to offset the shorter gearing of the Z33 trans. At least not to my liking anyways. Feel free to contact me with any questions about Collins or anything else on this swap. I have put A LOT of research in all of it include trans options so maybe I can save you some time.
