Would need to be mid/rear engined, or at least the driver would have to sit miles back, as there no way that big lump will fit in that enginebay.
Not as if VG30s are that good that itd be worth the bother.
Someone like DJ Motorsport are the peeps for that kind of fabrication.

I think the big question is what is your budget for such a conversion?

smashed car up other day done lotts of damage,
hit curb and fuked all the rear wheel stearing up, smashed hub assembly, all back wing and lotts of other stuff, so a jus wanna go mental with a project,
If you're not bothered how much then I'll take this on but it will be minimum Ł20K for a well engineered car based on you supplying both donar vehicles. (Obviously discuss with me first for suitable small vehicle) I'm busy at the moment but would be able to make a start on such a project from March.

But you could get an S13 200SX and have that running with a modded 300ZX engine, and decent suspension and brakes for less than half that.
And itd look better, and almost deffo handle and stop better, unless it was a top notch job done on the Micrap, as most mis-matched engine transplants like this make for wank cars overall.
Or just buy an engineless 300ZX to put the lump in, for 20k you could make one miles quicker than a 20k 300ZX micra would be.
Or sell the lump and just do summat else that involves a better engine.
I can do this but what do you want the car to be used for? track, road, drag, fun???? this all plays a part in building the car to perform to its potential. May route would be to build a chassis and then mount the body to it like the puma pics have been shown of.
