Quite a bit of time, a little money. If your asking the question you most likely dont have the skills,know how, or time to do this. My suggestion would be to sell the VG30DETT and buy a VG30ET, being a direct swap other then the front crossmember it wont be all that hard and it will still make plenty of power.

well you will need everything from the donor car engine wiring ecu ect.unless you plan on going standalone.and you will need a turbo x member as well.and if you have to ask prolly out of your talent range

The expense is so high, it is hardly worth. We are talking $10K, Why not try to use the DETT Engine and mount it with a single turbo. You still could not close the hood unless you forego the A/C unit, and the dual intercoolers would need a new home. Or, sell your car and repair the Z32
