Back when i used to work in teh ricer scene, i remember speaking to some guy claiming he had did an AWD RB swap into an s13 hatch... said they took a whole R32 and pretty much hacked it.. I question wiether this was true or not now.

But hey, someone did a SR20 RWD swap into a 1st gen Altima.. http://www.locustom.com/rwd_altima.htm

The shop doing the AWD S14 is Over Rev in ontario Socal , I actually know the exgirlfriend of the owner, and they seem like a cool shop. they got a 450hp Del Sol. Thier site was overrev.net but I guess its down right now.

I just think its gonna be crappy without R&D and proper track tuning, otherwise with them, im sure its just gonna be a show piece.

1JZ does sound a lot better than RB..... why kill the FR platform of an S-Chassis w/ an AWD setup?

Even for drag, you could do much more staying FR.

It has been done, the name of the shop is www.overrev.net

The owner of the car works for ADR Wheels, his name is Tung I believe. He's a sales rep at their Ontario, CA location.

I was talking to him about his car last week. They really had to hack it up to make it work. It's really not worth it.

The RB25DET Transmission is stronger than the RB26 due to the fact you don't have all the Altessa AWD stuff crammed in their.

They built the car as a demo car for Over Rev, but I don't think its worth doing for someone who would daily drive it.

The RB25DET trans clears but it is a crazy tight fit. The RB26DETT is so bulky and heavy I wouldn't wish it upon anyone.

yeah that car is koo, everything is custom. If you saw that car in person, you'll see how much fabbing went into the front end. As of now it's running but they're working some minor bugs, should be done sometime soon. Also that car is gonna be bling bling, it's gettin some 4 inch deep dish work wheels, meisters i think. koo stuff.

Just buy a R32.. geebus.. they are getting affordable now, and you can buy a illegal one dirt cheap.
