Then there's getting the ECU to work -- would have to be something like Motech full stand alone, drive train, etc etc.

It would be cheaper and easier to buy a salvage title GT-R and modify the body to look however you wish, perhaps custom retrofitting Z bumpers and the like, if the aim is a GT-R powered AWD Z.

There's virtually no shared parts between the platforms -- bear in mind that even the G and Z have some differences where everything doesn't simply bolt right into place (e.g., exhaust components) and those are practically identical vehicles built off the same exact platform.
Buying a salvaged hipo car is not worth it imo. Chassis damage, water damage, electrical lemon law car, mechanical...screw that.

Well, couldn't you at least use the GTR's ECU? People who do motor swap use the ECU to the corresponding engine they swap. In 5 yrs. or less, someone will swap a GT-R engine into a 370, and Chevy LS V8s....
