hoist or in your drive way? you have to clean out the calipers and lube everthing properly and adjust the parking brake. id say a few hours in your driveway with no experience. an hour in a shop with a hoist.

Depends on how good you are at doing brake jobs. I think the 300zx has a pretty easy setup compared to some others I've done. I can't comment on how long it took me because I had to rebuild all 4 calipers since they were frozen. I'd say about 1-3 hours depending on how fast you go.
