Welcome, but get ready to do more work than simply bolting up the engine. After swapping an '07 HR into a '06 Z for Nissan Sport Magazine for a series of articles almost a decade ago, there were plenty of electronic/wiring issues. That was OK for a racecar, but don't expect it'll be a plug-n-play experience. Plenty of threads on here about some who've tried this, and some claim success. All I can say is--despite expert help from a Nissan technician--there are several systems that still don't function properly and CELs that'll never go away.
Do more research before you commit to this project. If it were my Z, I'd rather sell a good DE powered Z and buy a good HR-powered Z to make this change.
