Having issues finding injector connectors!!

I've been trying to clean up the wiring in my engine and decided to just replace all the injector connectors. I have one big issue though...can't find any connectors with the off centered index slot. Everybody has the centered index slot connector and you would have to notch the slot over. I'd rather have have the right connectors because I've tried doing this to 2 connectors but it just seems cheesy!! Does anybody know if the Z31 connectors would work? They look like the same connectors in a pic I seen of somebody selling Z31 injector connectors.

you have the rectangular connector right? the front there's a sub harness you can buy...not sure it's still available.

the rear you will need to cut and splice. older Z32s use the same connectors. 90/91 should have the same connector...take a look into them.

The connector clips are breaking, the clip boots are dry rotted and cracking. All the wiring on both sides of the hareness is good.

That's why I upgraded to 92-94 VG connectors and did this thread...

That was the first thread I read b4 doing this, trying to avoid that. I successfully replaced 2 of them by notching the centered index slot to fit the off centered injector.

I understand but those early injector harness really suck...and my upgraded connectors was troublefree and easy as hell to connect/disconnect..... you can use the same intake manifold, you'll just need to notch in more clearance for those later style injectors....but you'll have a use the later style injectors with the later style fuelrails......
