Default advice & opinions wanted

hi guys..
so i have an 03 maxima 6speedmt, i bought the car with a bad motor and decided to rebuild the engine..
so what i am trying or planning on doin is, replace all the internal with 350z hr internals, the hr cams, pistons,rods, injectors an the oil pump.
now i am doin an n/a motor for now, so my question is.. what do u guys think? is this a good idea?
my reason for trying this is bcause the hr components are pretty much better than the stock shortblock of the engine of the 03. and the pistons are higher compression the cams have higher lift and duration and the injectors have a better flow.. i am not sure bout the oil pump yet but worst come to worst i might get a rev up oil pump.. see i am trying to make power from stock parts.. is this an ok experiment to try?
also i gonna have headers ported nd polished heads,ported nd polished intake manifold, upper nd lower plennium and a walbro fuel pump, nwp complete spacer kit wideband 02 nd a utec ecu..
also i was thinkin if i dont use hr or rev up cams i can buy some jwt or crower stage 2 cams. do u guys think i will make decent power?
and lastly using the hr crankshaft would that make a difference in the powerband? and will it fit?.. thanks guys i would really appriciate ur help and knoledge as well as advice on this little project/experiment of mine...

All you need is the pistons. Just fly cut them so they don't hit the valves.

From what I read. Search maxima.org like suggested. There's a thread about it. You can keep the stock rods also.
