Glad to see you took the time to answer some of the questions a lot of us have. Much appreciated!
I am currently about 80% into my LS2/T56 swap in my Z, and I JUST NOW found your thread. Better late than never I guess.
I, like you have always had FWD cars and have wanted a fast RWD car. So I bought my Z with the intention of LS swapping it. I have photographed and documented every step of my build and will be starting a thread of my own very soon.
I'm now at the fuel system stage, and then the wiring stage. Would you mind if I ask you what will probably be a million questions over the next few days as I attempt to tackle these things?
(I do travel to NoVa occasionally for work, so plan on me supplying you with a case of your favorite beer for your knowledge when I'm up that way). haha

Unfortunately not a ton of progress with the boost set up as of now. I decided to hold off until I was ready to spend some money on the fuel system. So, for now, it's back on the ground and running great! Raised the suspension up a bit for handling purposes... and that's about it! For now, enjoy a few pics from Skyline Drive this past weekend.

I would be comfortable saying I've spent 12k on the swap stuff. This includes shipping fees, gas to pick stuff up, random tools, misc odds and ends. Like I said prior, the only labor spent was on the exhaust.
I started in December collecting parts, pulling the VQ, etc. It started for the first time in March, and I spent basically weekends and some week nights on it. Not too bad for my first!
Thanks for all the kind words!
