Substitute Frontier with 510 Wagon and you have exactly what I am after.I have an ad up here in search of the parts. I have also contacted a friend up in Oregon who has a wrecking yard about putting something together for me. I also have been looking through auctions for a cheap wrecked Frontier. The few I have found in a good price range were all out east. I wanted to go with the VQ35hr, but its a bit heavier than what I wanted and a bit more difficult to fit.
Im not educated yet on the differences between FWD and RWD QR25 version. I am assuming the specV SER cams and ECU should work with the RWD Frontier setup fo similar years.
As of now the 510 forums have no help for me. With all the SR adn KA swaps available at low costs it may be a while, if ever, before the QR swap becomes an idea.
