Not much, just some custom engine and gearbox mounts.
Plenty of room in there like an fj in an R30 engine bay

I've got an fj in a R31 Pintara. We did the same to a skyline and used the pintara engine cross member. This puts the box forward . The pintara has different g/box cross member position.
Ultimately a pintara has the better fit up for an fj. use the pintara box with fj bell houising. NO CUSTOM MOUNTS OR CROSSMEMBERS ANYWHERE.

Sorry for the terribly late reply mate.
Drivers side is Pintara or DR30 rubber other side is RB30 with a plate on top.
Brackets on engine itself are both factory fj.
The factory inlet is bloody close to brake m/cylinder.
No real probs though.
Overall the car is excellent, feels a hell of a lot safer than the stanza (323 hp @ wheels 15psi) I used to have the same engine in.
I've got more out of it now it's in a bigger car !!!!!!!! .
