Rear Wheel Drive P10?

[Mike.Com]

Just a thought:

Since there's a 4WD P10 in Japan, is it possible to make the US P10 a Rear Wheel Drive or 4WD car without major modification??

Let me elaborate. The Primera T4 (AWD model) has many differences between the Primeras with FWD. The T4 uses a different floor pan from the FWD models, not to mention that the transmission is different. Some of the rear suspension peices are different also, although the rear suspension is very similar to that of a Z32 300ZX. It would be possible, but you'd have to figure out how to transplant an SR20DE with a RWD tranny from a Silvia into the P10 platform.

Not to mention totally replacing the floorpan.

Better just to buy a BMW.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm just used to driving the RX7 so the G20 had a different feeling at autocross last weekend. Anyway, I want to learn how to be competitive with a FWD.
