Difference between a vq35 is that it comes in FWD.
Rb's are strictly longitudinal.

There was a old school sentra drag car that had a 26.
but it was a drag car.

You can do anything its just a matter of how Mich $ your gonna spend to do it.

Just swap a bluebird or gti-r motor and be happy

I have an idea, build the engine thats in it now! your not going to get anything better like an rb into that thing without tens of thousands of dollars in modification under that car and if you take the money that you would spend on something that does fit and put it into that engine thats in it already youd be allot better off. more hp for same $

All this is not nessacerily true. I have seen AWD sentra's done before, with running gear out of a Bluebird I believe, so the basis for RWD is there. Now stuffing an engine that size in the bay is where the money will come in. Might as well tube chassis the front and forget about a firewall tho......

But, the AWD Bluebirds are from a front wheel drive SR set-up, just like the Pulsar GTi-R.

They are set up like the Mitubishi Eclipses, Evos and 3000GT VR-4s. They use a FWD engine with a transaxle that has a transfer case bolted to it with a prop shaft that goes to the rear differential.

That's gonna be a total makeover man! I would rather put SR20Det NEO Turbo (Blue Cover) in the Sentra. It runs like a rocket.

Knew a guy with a L28 in a B11 sentra. Built the car for drag racing. Converted to rear wheel drive but it did not last long. The suspension in the back broke off. Use a VQ or SR NEO.
