Mmm it's not too difficult, the connectors can be taken off of various other cars for ex. Audi, I believe should work. And I might get a good deal on some good ones from another forum.

Update!! 10/10/13
Okay so I finally took the time to work on the injector connectors, because I had a lot of motivation for some reason. Also, the guy flaked on me that was gonna give me the injectors, so for now im stuck with the old ones still. No biggie.
First things first, I went to Auto Zone and bought a packet of this. Cost me a $1.90. Overpriced shit, but I needed it.
Then I proceeded to add a good amount to each connector, I don't want them to corrode. Because I will be replacing the injectors eventually.
Then I taped the ends of each connector with electrical tape, because well I don't have the boots, and I added heat shrink at the end of the tape, I really really don't want it to get corroded. And They came out looking nice.
Here are all six of them done, ready to install.
What do yall think?
So here all six of them looking nice and spiffy, and new.
So what I have decided to do, instead of running them over the intake and It looking all ugly.
Im going to open up the harness, and remove all the wires from that harness all the way to the firewall, and run them behind the intake.
Disconnected this, because it was in the way.
So right here, the harness cover is in two pieces, so what i did was hold it in place so all the wires wouldn't fall out, and pulled the wires for the injectors down lower, and used tape to hold it back together to keep the rest of the wires covered.
Then from here, my dad came, and was like you should probably hook them up really quick to see if they work good, before you do all that work.
So I hooked up the harness to the injector connectors, since they fire in batch. So It didn't matter in what order, from power neither ground, since its just an actuator basically. So took me a good 3o minutes for that, and hooked up the battery from my Del Sol, I'm surprised it actually could crank the Z, wasn' starting so I was like damn, okay Ill let the fuel pump prime for a bit, tried again, and nothing, Then I thought okay everything is connected so thats good, last time I started it it was good, so that ruled out the fuel pump, but I overlooked the simplest thing, It didn't have gas, so I stole some of my dads gas he had aside, and added maybe half a gallon or so, I tried it again, and It was just cranking, on about the 4th try it started right up for about a good 15 sec, then died out, so I was like okay, were good, tried it again, and it stayed on, it was idling a bit high and I fixed that with the adjuster screw.
So before it had a misfire in like three cylinders, and now when I rev it it sounds good and strong, and doesn't smoke as much as it used too. So thats a good sign. The only issue I'm having now, is some hesitation when I rev the engine, up. But it doesn't bog down, in gear no more and can actually hold its own going forward and in reverse, so Im happy with that. So now I will be running the harness properly, so it won't be as visible.
