This is awesome! I have been looking into doing this for a while, props for pulling it off. I have a few questions.
1. How far did you have to push the trans back and how much shorter did the drive shaft have to be to use the aristo mounts? Did you have to make a custom trans cross member? Any pics of under the car?
2. How was the wiring done to use stock gauges and such? Do they offer a plug and play wiring harness?
3. Did the Collins adapter and hoke shifter relocation line right up or were there some adjustments to be made?
This is a great build and would love to be able to pull it off some day, although in a G coupe. The reason for question 1 is because I know that the Zs drive shaft is shorter than the Gs so I was wondering if I could just use the drive shaft from a Z instead of getting a custom made piece but I have yet to find the dimensions on either drive shaft.

All these questions were answered threw out the build thread.
1.a few inches shorter, but exactly sure off the top of my head, got a shaft made from shaft masters, yes I modified the stock trans mount.
2.wiring specialties
3.lined right up, had to elongate the existing motor mount holes in order to have everything sit level.
Tbh if your looking to save 300$ by trying to use a z shaft
Lol this swap is not for you.

Thanks for the quick reply. As for the drive shaft, a custom piece wouldn't break the build I just thought it would be cool to make the swap more of a bolt together build vs getting custom made parts. If you could pick up a used oem part that is perfectly fine from a local junk yard for $75-$100 vs getting a custom piece made for $4-500 then why not?

Updates ******
Car has been tuned making 460whp on 15 psi. Boost controller wasn't working correctly.
Fixed that and am now putting together a new fuel system with surge tank (twin AEM 380lph )in battery location, battery in trunk , made new tabs for DNA racing radiator and eliminated the Oem core support.
I need to finish that up and get ready tuned on 93 which I should get around 500 whp and close to 700 hp on e85 on a completely stock 2jzgte.bash bar with new bumper mounts will becoming soon along with some wheels and suspension....
