If someone has done the conversion and it hasn't been too dodgy then definitely get one with the conversion done. Or get a pulsar with an sr20det instead. The work involved will be a lot. Custom engine mounts, custom driveshafts, wiring aftermarket ECU, changing clutch cable to hydraulic (depends on what gearbox you use).

I can say that it can be done effectively if you put the time and effort into researching what you need. I can say this first hand as I have done this conversion and did 90% of it myself. Jono on the forums did the wiring for me.

Dont need custom engine mounts, other nissan mounts can be used which bolt to the u12 crossmember.
If you get a 50's series sr20 bellhousing (Easiest to source in NZ) then you use that with the gearset and outer casing from a u12 ka24e gearbox. I have been running it for 5+ years without the gears giving me any issues, that includes a day out on the track. The beauty of this setup is you keep the hydraulic clutch setup (using a gtir slave cylinder, I think) and you can use the stock ka driveshafts. If you can source an awd flywheel and starter motor you can run a skyline clutch (best thing I did to my conversion).
Ecu, Ive used a stock w10 avenir ecu (thats the engine I got) and put Nistune in it. Realtime tuning with the ease of using all your stock sensors etc.

Have a read through my project thread for a good run down of the conversion process.

Hey guys. Thanks heaps for all your replies. I found a nice condition 89 pintara with a forged ka24e turbo. Needs some tlc but nothing I cant fix ; )  has a high flow t4 turbo. Owner showed me pics of the build and dyno sheet with 330hp on 13 psi. Goes very well. dose need the usual bushes ect. And rack. Really in need for a front right guard blinker lol. Anyways thanks for all the info. Ill have to show some pics on this site.
cheers
