I assume that you are referring to the 300ZX motors. I've never seen this swap done before. I'm sure it could be done but would be extremely difficult. First off the VG30DETT and non turbo engine are set up for rear drive applications, secondly they both use a dual intake setup that requires alot of room that simply wont be available in a 95 Altima. Plus not to mention if you find one in good condition it wont come cheap. I would say your best bet would be a VG30DE from a 95-01 Maxima. It's a high torque engine that is a blast to drive and is already set up for front drive and features a single air intake. It should be easy to find one and aftermarket parts are readily available including superchargers and turbos. Not to mention this engine is super reliable. Mine has over 100k on it and still runs like new! This is just my opinon but my family and I currently own a 95 Altima GXE, 96 Maxima SE, and 1991 300ZXTT. So I know what your thinking. Good Luck!!
