I think the question would be...how cool would it be to swap an HR into a pre-07? And imagine if the GTR shared the same motor...TT 3.7l Z ?! Yeaa

Talk to a competent shop and tuner to see if it's do-able. FWIW, everybody here in some shape or fassion has already stated it - it's not really worth it. Motor swaps are a pain in the a$$. If you're going to go though the pain of one, do something extreme or just don't do it at all. If I were in you're shoes, I'd just build up a 287hp engine and go from there.

Good luck.
