Lowering My ZX
You will also need (should) correct the camber when dropping the height. This post gives more information on using shims to do the job: https://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/topic/157334-ride-height-to-camber-ratio/?do=findComment&comment=1717850

Such a nice Japanese design. I remember when the Sport Compact Car Project 300ZX used them. I got down to 2 designs - Equips or Blitz and went with the later, but it was a very close choice!

Mounting adapter for Bosch IAT/MAP sensor
For aftermarket engine management setups which use MAP (manifold pressure) and IAT (intake air temperature) sensors then this little adaptor for a Bosch combined MAP and IAT sensor mounted to the EGR flange on the underside of the plenum could be of interest. (NB check the manufacturer's note regarding oil in the plenum). Great to see a new Z32 product innovation! https://www.polarengineering.co/product-page/nissan-z32-300zx-mounting-adapter-for-bosch-iat-map-sensor

Code 26 boost sensor fault
Do you have the original 8-bit ECU fitted? The later 16-bit ECU's fitted to '95+cars do have a seperate boost sensor and signal input to the ECU so will throw a 26 if it is faulty or missing which you will get if the ECU has been changed to a later type.
