got a 91 z32, it starts and runs great, sometimes when you turn it off and let set for maybe 10-30 mins or overnight, it wont start, just crank and crank, the weard things is, it has spark, fuel, injector power etc. BUT when you pushstart the car it starts RIGHT up without any problem. wth can do this or cause this? any answers would be great. thanks guy

when it cranks/no start, how does the starter sound? you may have an intermittant starter problem. check your wiring for the battery and starter to see if anything is loose.
