Do a google search for "g35 rev up to normal / regular de swap" there's a few threads out there.
Personally I'd just use the donor short block and swap over the heads from the rev-up. Rebuild them if needed, new head bolts, new timing chain, gaskets, rev-up oil pump, reuse the rev up oil pan baffle.
Then you don't have to screw around with all the other stuff and you keep the rev-up engine. The only difference between the regular DE and the rev-up is the oil pump, heads assembly, oil pan baffle. Technically the connecting rods are "different" in that the rev-up ones can handle about 20 extra whp before bending, unless you're boosted this isn't an issue.
