The gearing is slightly different but should work otherwise. I believe you'll need the Q torque converter as well as the bell housing

Will it mount right up, with the Q bell housing. Since the ZTT is a sports car, it should shift strong right., or will any other year Q trans work...

90-95 trans are interchangeable, 94-95 has a little different gearing than 90-93 but its close.

Would there be any benefit to swapping to a Z trans?

I am pretty sure the 1990-1996 Q45 and 1990-1996 300ZX Twin Turbo (TT) share the same Automatic Transmission (A/T). I have no idea why anyone would consider it a upgrade to swap transmissions between the two. The 1990-1996 300ZX TT has the 1990-1993 Q45 A/T through its run. The older Q45 transmission has better acceleration at the expense of top speed rpm's and vise versa for the 1994-1996 Q45 A/T.
