RB26DETT engine swap
Like spinnydrift said, it's a huge pain in the ass to do, and a huge pain in the ass to maintain. It's not that it's unrealistic, it's just that you're going to be sinking a lot of time and money into this project.
But... if you're actually serious:
You don't need an R31 tranny, per se. Any RB25DET transmission will work fine.
Oh, and go to this site: http://www.mckinneymotorsports.com/
They've been doing RB swaps into 240s for awhile, and sell all the random crap you'll need to make it work (adapters, crossmembers, downpipes, etc.).

I believe the RB26DETT was from the most recent R34 skyline, not the R32, so the motor may be more difficult to get ahold of than you think. I have heard that the swap is a pain in the ass, as others have told you. Also, the block is cast iron, unlike the Sr20, so you're going to front out your weight distribution if you're interested.
