I would love to buy your project cheap when you don't finish it. It will be exorbitantly expensive.

Search for Full Race R14 (I think thats the name).

They did it, and were offering to do it for customer cars.

BTW, try some capitalization and correct spelling in your posts.

LOL dude the rearend from a skyline is completely unnecessary. just use the stock 240 rear and make a driveshaft

p.s. dont get in over your head. every person like you that has come through this forum doesnt listen to any of us when we tell them that its NOT CHEAP OR EASY. YOU WILL SPEND OVER 10,000$ AT A BARE MINIMUM.

p.p.s.

dumbdoneinfronttried

use them correctly.

p.p.p.s. if your buddy honestly thinks you need a skyline rear end, i wouldnt let him fab anything on the car...

Yeah if it already has a SR in it go find a SR20VE head and oil pump and make it work. Then u can go to 9500 and not worry about your oil pump slipping.

Actually you do want the gtr rear end because you need the diff and axles with the individual wheel speed sensors so that the ATTESSA works.

You also need the attessa computer and all the associated wiring which pretty much runs throughout the entire skyline. That means it is very hard to find the wiring you need un-cut unless you get a complete car to pull it out of.

Not to mention getting all the wiring to work in the new car and fabricating new front suspension.

LOL in other words you need an entire skyline to do the swap just to keep traction control?

fail.

Yep.

The awd system isn't worth a **** if all the wheel speed sensors and electronics are not hooked up.

Just lots of extra weight for no gains.

Agreed with Carl. Man, you need to clean up your spelling and grammar. People WILL view you as uneducated or dumb because of it. If not now, later in your life.

Not trying to be a jerk, just saying.
