Starter relay inhibitor.....UK car?
Do you even have one Howard? As a factory manual car, according the the UK FSM you don't. I've added the relevant pages below. The starter relay (which is shown as "Relay Inhibitor" on the packaging) is used to prevent an Auto car from starting unless the selector lever is in "N" or "P". el-17.pdf el-110.pdf

My Hermes - useless tossers
In my experience it is very much down to the delivery person - some are caring and considerate others less so. I've found DPD to be the service I have most confidence with. The live tracking of the parcel through their network and that of the delivery driver on their round is very convenient plus the time slot for delivery is surprisingly accurate.

Engine Oil
Welcome to the Club! How much oil (quantity) was put in? The 10w-30 is light (the 30 bit) for a 142K mile engine and could contribute to noisy lifters. I have used Mobil 1 5w-40 and now 0w-40 synthetic for many years in my UK spec without problem. Others members have used semi synthetic successfully. Info from the FSM:

Fuel tank line, carbon canister/vacuum?
Took me a minute to work out what I was looking at. Here are the insides of a 2+0 tank. Same gubbins in principle. I don't (yet) know what the brown plastic box does, but to answer your question the metal pipe inside the tank should be connected to your repaired CC connection.

Alteratively you can modify a rear lights bulb holder (black type) to replace the standard one and gain some clearance. This worked when I fitted HKS SMICs.

Agreed, for road cars with sensible spring rates the ARBs will do more work. With my Eibach/KYBs I've got mine set to soft front and mid-point rear. I never tried them on the other settings to see how that would effect the Z32's handling. Have you?- Project Dittohead Red
Regarding the setup of the Stillen ARB's these pictures from the installation guide explain the settings and their effect on the car's handling. Front: Rear: - CAR Magazine
