Z axles Q?
Are Z32 axles inerchangable with S13 axles? I don't think so, but i thought I'd ask anyways

No. First of all, they're 5-bolt. Second, they're a bit too long. Third, the spline that goes through the hub is too thick.
If you want to use z-axles for a 5-bolt vlsd, I was able to modify the z-axles and 240sx axles... http://www.gbauto.net/crzycav86/axle_swap.htm
But if you're in the market for axles, you're better off getting pre -95 j30 axles. They're 5-bolt, and will fit the subframe.

$350 for used VLSD with proper shafts that bolts right into your car, whether your're 4 or 5 lug, is cheap.
On other forums, the VLSD alone asking price is $350. Of course there's always that rare shop that has various JDM parts kicking around that will unload an entire 180sx rear subframe for $50 if you take it away right now! but that's rare. shoulda played the lotto that day..
No new Nissan parts are cheap. For example, the new J30 shafts I got from Infiniti of Tacoma list at $800+ each
New OEM NA 300zx rear bearings(P/N 43280-AA100) cost twice as much as the same bearing from SKF(GRW309)
