small car, FWD to RWD?
i am wanting to do a project car, im thinking of a late 80's nissan micra and doing a rwd swap into it. my main question is it really possible? is there enough room in the engine bay to have a front to back mounted engine and transmission and all the other things needed (i know ill have to redo the rear floor and frame) but whatelse?

Re: small car, FWD to RWD?
Depends on what motor you want to shoehorn into it depends on how much room you'll have. You will have to make a drive shaft/tranny tunnel and make mounting places for a rear end. You'll have to add a frame and such. Good luck

Yea, its completely possible. Its going to be expensive, and require a ton of work but its possible. You will need to build a frame for it, probably custom driveshaft, so on and so forth.
