wouldn't you be looking at a whole new drivetrain? I mean, can the stock Maxima trans take the abuse from a 300ZX (TT? or n/a). also, I would imagine there are different rears on the two cars, for obvious reasons....
my $.02....wait, its not worth THAT much

ok
a VG30DE with some cramping, lots of money, and the time, can fit into your max. And when N/A has hp around 200 - 220. The VG30DETT would, well lets, i believe the words Mikey said were *insert metal cutting sound here*. Not to mention i don't even think your intake manifold would work on it, and would have to have custom exhaust manifolds made.
VG30E-T like Mikey said is a good swap with minor mods. The easiest out of the 3 by far.
VG30E-T and VG30DE you would not need a new tranny, just beef your exsisting one up, unless it's shot then would have to be rebuilt, would probably be a good idea to rebuild it anyways.

90-96 300zx twin turbo=300 hp(Autos and 96's 280) and 283 ft lbs of torque.
90-96 300zx normally aspirated=222 hp and 198 ft lbs of torque.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^VG30DE(TT)^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
84-87 300zx turbo=200 hp and 227 ft lbs of torque.
88-89 300zx turbo=205 hp and 227 ft lbs of torque.
84-87 300zx normally aspirated=160 hp and 177 ft lbs of torque.
88-89 300zx normally aspirated=165 hp and 177 ft lbs of torque.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^VG30E(T)^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
VG30DETT=No go unless you have $$ to blow.
VG30ET=Good, cost effective turbo swap with hella potential.
VE30DET=Coming soon
Any questions?

Or you could take into the fact that an engine swap that you're talking about would cost almost as much as a 91-on 300zx. If you want a Z engine, then get a Z!

similar in size to a VE30DE used in the 92-94 SE's
