If you ever want to turbo. 3vz or 3sgte is your best bet
A 3vz is the cheapest route an easyest to find parts for.
The 1mz will cost more than a 3vz but doesnt hold up to boost as well. But starts out with more power.
All 3 can be backed by a s54( stock gt) transmission. But if you plan on trying to build more than 250hp
Youll want a e153.
Im running a 1mz/ s54 combo in my 94gt an so far i like it
The hardest part to the v6 swaps is the wiring witch is easiest if you just send it to a professional
The 2 best are mr220v or tweak. I used mr220v to do mine an he did a great job. But alot od people from here have used tweak for other harnesses an had great results so im sure he is capable of doing a v6 harness.

The best thing you can do is research an talk to people that have the swaps an see what they have to say an figure out for yourself what will work best for you
