Is there more physical hammering/cutting/hacking/blowing stuff up that cannot be solved with potentially swapped parts from the factory in a few years?

My dream would be to be able to drop in the VR30 in a couple years and have a superior engine that mostly drops right in and runs like factory even with minor mods
mentioned above is the hassle of wiring tho.

You may end up transplanting the 400z ecu as well if you want an easy swap. Not sure how feasible that is. Or how it would be simpler than a TT on the vq37 which a lot of people have already done it seems.
