Will will have to make its own subforum as it is RWD platform. Just like we have RWD SR20 and FWD SR20.

I actually posed the same question at the creation of this forum. The Frontier QR is too different (besides being turned the other way) to include in the same forum.

I think the RWD qr is too obscure, and its usage isn't widespread enough to have it's own sub-forum. I just like the idea of a sporty, lightweight, short wheelbase, 2wd, 6spd, spec-v, mini-muscle Frontier. I guess I'll stick with the HB's for now.

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.
