this is dope!
Once this car is running & if you can get it reliable, gonna be a hard car to beat.
ive seen this swap in an s14, that car was faster than evo's. I think its the one thats mentioned on the previous page

From what Geoff said when FullRace did their AWD conversion on their S14, you'd pretty much have to re-engineer the front end/suspension to keep the AWD aspect of it. Then you still have to figure out how to get the Attessa to work without it fritzing out.
thanks for the info ! and i am one step ahead ! the Attessa should work without a hick up as the hole GTR wiring system is going into the 240. every sensor,computer and wire will be OEM so shouldn't have a problem there. only problem is i hear the Haltech sport 2000 doesn't like the AWD too much and not as many functions.

as for the arm/suspension design, i have a local buddy that is a GTR/240sx guru. owned his own shop and he brought a few good ideas to the table. i would tell you but then i would have to kill you... JK but ill be showing the hole proses as the build goes by. thanks

That is about as good looking a skyline can be, without her body.

This should be a very interesting project.

Keep up the good work!!

Education is key my friend. I am not Canadian, just live here. Its stupid to blame a country for something that i did. i understand you guys dont get GTRs, here a gtr is another JDM car. its my opinion on what i want to do with it. nobody made you check out my thread. you dont like it, dont waist your time with it. what your saying is every person that buys a front clip is a skyline killer ? and dont say they been crashed sins i have seen a end less amount of mint gtrs/skylines get chopped up for parts. its a skyline not a lambo. if you knew the story you would do the same thing. thanks for checking out my build

wow its been a while sins i updated.
so i took the twins off


And as curious as i am wanted to see the single turbo mock up. not bad


Then a week later these puppy's came in to my life. Mmm Nascar AP Racing 6 piston brakes. I never really thought i would own anything over 4 piston, yet alone AP racing. these should stop a train lol, they are designed to stop a nascar going 200 MPH. and can take alot of abuse/heat




i also ran across this TRUST/GREDDY TD06 Twin Turbo kit and couldn't pass up on it. now i have to decide witch route i want to take




Manifold is truly amazing work of art. (IMO)

Sweet, looks like a fun project,

Out of curiosity, what do you do for employment? Is this where you learned your skills?

I know a guy that has an *AWD S13* with a Silvia Front end (if that matters). He basically aligned (which he told me it took 10-15hrs alone) and welded the Half cut of the R32 onto the 240sx. He also is using an R32 Dash (RHD)/Center console. that's one way to make the AWD work with an S13 that I know of. I don't know the full details of how it lines up but its most likely one hell of a job...

Ill see if i have some and post up if i find them. Its been at leadlst 5+years since i saw it. But everytime i ask him on progress, hes always busy working on other peoples cars. I highly doubt hes posted it online anywhere. I know i never took any of the bottom of it or what points/braced or welded it together. Just of the bay and some of the interior parts.
