Folks, it's time for the unveiling. I've been telling you bits and pieces what I've been doing with my car over the winter, but kept the big stuff under wraps. Here goes.
375 WHP Nissan GTi-R motor installed. This engine was Nissan's WRC four wheel drive attempt that put out 227 HP stock and it's based upon the infamous SR20 which, btw, was stock in the NX2000. My car's big brother. Fits perfectly. Huge FMIC. Calumsult ECU. Cams. Mated up to a 6 speed transmission from a Nissan B15. Going to the ground through a Bully Clutch and lightweight flywheel, Quaife LSD.http://i42.tinypic.com/znspxc.jpg Extensive fabrication to make the AWD fit http://i44.tinypic.com/140m261.jpg
As the driveshaft to the rear wheels now fills the tunnel where the exhaust was, I've chosen a side exit exhaust. Anyways, now I'm ready to take on some Subarus.

April's here, track days are getting very close.:D

Frank,

In your pictures I don't SEE an engine. Is your engine vapourware? :):rolleyes:

Gotta Love April Fools day!

I'm still working hard to put down 99 whp! The pics are factual, a guy in Wisconsin has done the AWD conversion of an NX and it's on the road running.

White, blue, red - I've owned one of each colour. I've just owned the white one since it was new.
