The VQ30DETT was used in an R34 GT-R during the Japan Grand Touring Championship. Drivers reported that handling was greatly improved over the RB-powered versions. Unfortunately, the crank failed at around 540hp. However, there is a rumor that for the upcoming GT-R, Cosworth will have a hand in strengthening the internals in the VQ.

Um, no, it was all built for RWD, and won't fit in the maxima engine bay.

Even if you these turbo VQ parts fit, you know how much these would cost you? You would probably faint(provided you could even get someone to sell you the parts). Seems like the best plug and play factory internal parts would be the VQDET from the Cima. Tilley is the man on that one.

To be honest, those parts in that turbo VQ engine probably cost 4-5 times more than the custom parts you can already get here. These racing teams sometimes have $100,000s of dollars in their budgets. And if you want a strong NA motor, many of these parts of this turbo VQ won't be for you.

EDIT, I thought you were building your motor NA with my statement below...
Like jeff said, all those parts will be WAY too expensive. They will probably all be one off custom made parts that will NEVER be sold to consumers. remember, these parts are being made for race engines. If your planning on sticking NA, and want more power, you might want to consider RAISING your compression, not lowering it. I believe Mardi is experimenting with putting the VQ35DE in his car... he said something about putting the VQ30 heads on the VQ35 block would yeild a 11.1 compression ratio, something to think about maybe...

If that's the case, you might want to keep an eye on Mardi's plan before you start ordering custom parts. VQ35 block,internals, and heads, with VQ30DE cams to elimintate the variable cam timing, might work out better and cheaper than a custom VQ30.

If you want a lower compression than the 9:1 Cima pistons, you can get 'em. I think someone was looking at getting 8.5:1 pistons from Arias before. If you want longer/shorter rods, you can get them, and probably with more strength too.
