Welcome to NICO!
I can't help you a whole heck of a lot about the topic in question, but if/when you do start building, put up a build thread with your progress. A lot of folks will be very happy to see these same questions answered with a bit of a how-to as well.
You likely will also need to get a better fuel pump, some sort of stand alone ECU (assuming you want to tune it), a better clutch, an improved rear end from a J30 or 300zx.
Thankfully, some of that is made easier by our vendors.

The wiring harness, for instance can be made by Wiring Specialties. Mention NICO when you purchase from any of them.
As for your next steps, check out the vendor page, read (and then read more) and once you're ready to dive in, start posting up your progress!
