Yes it will...these were available in the 280ZX turbo so it's an easy swap.

The transmission will bolt up bellhousing/block a-okay, but there's a driveshaft compatibility issue. Of course, that can be remedied with enough fabrication and/or cash, but that's kind of a personal pain threshold decision. ZGarage over on geocities hosting has a really nice "I did this, here's how it went" article about Borgs and S30s:

good luck,
Dave
