New key
I bought a black rubber 300zx gun key from nissan.They refused to cut it as the titanium key was worn and didnt want to ruin the blank.High street key cutters cut it £2.50 .It fits perfect.

You need tuner nuts mate .Allen head bolts with open ends alot thinner than standard ones avalible from motor accessory shops.

mt90
Sikolene is good as well but dont know if it will cure syncro problems .Red line mt 90 cured my syncro problem but you have to give the oil time mine took a few weeks to sort out, now know no more crunching in 4th at high revs

Can I fit?
ive run a 9" wheel only a 17 with a +15 offset with a 255 tyre and it rubbed over big bumps every now and then. a 10 " with a +20 might be pushing it you may need a arch flare.
-
wheel spacers! how wide?
6mm with standard studs .But you can get bolt on spacer 15mm/20mm/25mm/30mm/or bigger these fit with standard studs.

big rims front
just trying out rims on my standard arched zed the other day and managed to fit a 9" wide 17 " rim with a +10 offset to the front with a 255 tyre no problem it was a bit close to arch liner on full lock but ok this is the max .I know a lot of people dont understand offsets the smaller the offset the more the rims sticks out - offset sticks out loads .
-
the 300zx light at rear
Ive been told rs components do a replacement inverter for these panels im unsure of the part number .Ive questioned my local nissan dealer for a orginal nissan inverter but they told me they cant get part numbers for jdm dealer option parts.Mine has a green el panel which packed up soon after owning car thanks taff.
