^^^That's the beauty of the IDX concepts! They feature removable/interchangeable body panels, aero & headlights to create your own custom style, just like we already do on our S-chassis. That's why the concepts look like hodgepodges of different cars cobbled together. You can make them as mild or wild as you want... from the factory! OEM fit & finish with a warranty!

It's like Nissan looked through the Wheel Fitment Thread for trends or something!

Around the same as an S14 from what I remember reading, running their existing 1.6L turbo engine & priced to compete with the FRS.

This engine makes 197hp in the Nismo Juke on a dinky T20 turbo. But they also debuted a Nismo Sentra running the same engine but making 240hp. I'd love to see 197hp in the IDX Freeflow and 240hp in the Nismo IDX.

Apparently, Nissan is still using bolt-on turbos in the Juke instead of integrated manifolds, which is great, IMO. But the flange is a proprietory design, so there might be a problem sourcing bolt-on turbos that fit. Which shouldn't be much of a problem once this engine goes into a car the aftermarket actually gives a fuck about.
