o.k. i wan to make a drift truck as my next project(maybe) its a nissan pickup 90-91 i was thinking drop a sr20det engine in it( i know that it will bolt in) then my main question is do you know if coil overs from a 240sx will fit the truck? if not how could i make it work? then i was going to relocate the ebrake. gut the interior( with roll cage and racing seats) then paint it caus e the truck in mind has faded paint. also new wheels and tires.
*please put in some input.*
i want to do it because nobody else has. at first i thought it couldnt work. but i also thought they would never make an american drift car. so maby this could work?

no, the coilovers won't work, pickups have leaf springs in the rear. Truck suspensions are pretty simple though so you could figure something out.

yea its been done a couple times actually, the new tacoma isn't the first, i've seen some average drifters on the drifting.com message boards that do it, one with an old tacoma, and an older nissan like what your explaining.
