hello everyone at nicoclub.com! My old User name was altimao2dub. I changed my email and lost my password... sorry haven't been on here in awhile :( I was a user of nissanclub.com and its been quiet there so I needed to check out Nicoclub!

Well i have 2002 Nissan Altima. Been workin on it since 2002 when I purchased it. I have done lots of work on it since then. I did a 5speed manual swap from automatic, interior, paint and stereo. I'll post some pics. I also had the car featured in PAS mag and RIX mag. The car is now once again under the knife and is being converted to a RWD V8 (VK56DE) I have my own site http://www.v8altima.com. Its great to be back on here again, see you all on the forums!

Yes RWD, The Murano AWD rear subframe bolts up perfectly to the Altima L31 Chassis. I just need to do some modifications to fit the axles and rear dif.

oh def a tunnel too, thats why I removed my OEM gas tank and installed a 15gal ATL fuelcell in the trunk. But, basically the whole center of the car is getting cut out. The firewall is getting pushed back a lil too for better balance. The suspension tunning is going to be my biggest challenge.

With all those modifications to the chassis, is this thing going to be road legal anymore?
