NOTE: for the Z-car, see Fairlady#Coupes
The Nissan Z Engine is readily available in both USA and Australia in early 1980s Datsuns and Nissans. They came in displacements of 1.8 (Z18), 2.0 (Z20), 2.2 (Z22) and 2.4 liters (Z24). The Z-series and L-series Engine are very closely related, it is possible to put a Z head on a L-series bottom end with the use of the Z24 front cover. Z18s are a top little motor and readily available in Australia. If price is no object, the CA18DET is a lighter and far more powerful engine. However, if you come across a Z18T and the price is right, it makes a little Datsun 1200 move out with style.

Overview
Z-series is the 2nd generation of the L-series engine and both use the same block. So oil pans and mounting is the same as fitting an L-series engine.

Transmission
Z-series uses the same transmissions as the KA-series engines. The bolt pattern is the same as the L-series but the lean is different.
Crossmember & Sump
Z-series Engine uses same crossmember mounts points as L-series engine.
This one for Z18T was done differently:
Oil Pan
720 4x4 pan modified to fit stock 1200 crossmember
But why go to all that trouble?
Vanette Z-22 sump fits stock crossmember:
Differential
Z-series engine requires a rear diff than can handle 98-137 ft. lbs. of torque. H190 is recommended.
