does it have the same frame and engine bay area as the infiniti M30 ?? , if so, then there is a person doing a vg30dett swap in the J30/M30 forum in this website, check it out

i've almost completed the vg30dett swap on a J30, i dont know if that would also help

There's a guy on there who has a VG30DETT in his s13 hatch. I'm sure he could answer any questions that you would have

Problem is that the driver's side turbo will hit the steering shaft. The z32 has a setup where the shaft is at a much lower profile to allow for the turbo/downpipe. Other than that, custom mounts, driveshaft, and some wiring and you are all set.
