Z31 electric gremlins

To start, I'll say, hello, I'm new here. I used to have an 89 300zx na some years back, got nostalgic for it and today I picked up a clean, but still old 87 300zx Turbo, a christmas present to myself, I suppose.

So I notice all ready that the guages and taillights don't light up at all until the car warms up a few minutes, they seem to function normally once the car is warm. I used to have an old civic that the cluster and taillights were on the same fuse, that would sometimes pop. So I'll start probably with swapping some new fuses in and see what happens...

The driver's window will go down a few inches, then slow to a stop, like a record, burrr... then after a few seconds it will let me go a few more inches, burrr... sometimes it's unresponsive, then after a few tries it rolls back up.
I'm gonna guess maybe it needs a new window motor? I don't know.

Then the oil temp gauge seems to be nonfunctional, probably a bad sensor?
The oil pressure reads fine, the oil temp needle won't move, it just sits there, doing nothing useful.

I'm very excited to be back in the world of the Zcar, I know there are some other Z connoisseurs out there.
