I'm going to be honest here, I'm not really sure what's even going on in this thread anymore. Mr. S14, I can't even read your posts. Before attempting something as difficult and potentially dangerous as welding two cars together, I suggest you work on your grasp of the English language. No matter what you think, spelling, punctuation, and grammar are all very important if you want to get your point across.
As for the original question. The plausibility of welding the front half of an R34 to the rear of an S14 is a completely moot point. You have absolutely nothing to gain from such a hybrid. By doing this, you will NOT have AWD. To have the AWD you would need to make all the same changes to the rear end of the S14 as you would if you just swapped an RB26 into the original S`4 chassis. What you WOULD get from this hybrid is: 1. the R34 front end, which does not match the body lines of the S14 at all (the R33 does though). 2. A severely compromised structure and a potentially very unsafe vehicle.
It would be safer AND more economical to swap the RB into the S14 chassis and then modify for AWD (no small task by any means). You're grasp on mechanics seems to be about as solid as your mastery of the English language. If you decide to try this, you're going to need someone very qualified to perform the work, which will cost you a LOT of money. If not, we'll all nominate you for the Darwin Awards next year. Good day.
