Thats exakerly what i'm intending.
Sr20det, water/air intercooler, s14 vvt motor, high mount stock s14 intake plenum, hi mount aftermarket exh manifold.
As its body on chassis, no issue with sectioning the firewall for exhaust clearance.
The chassis runs a cruciform centre, this needs cutting out, and re boxing to fit tje s14 5 speed, gearstick comes up through stock hole.
Diff is to be replaced with a common BW 78 from a R31 wagon, cut down, it retains stock rear disc with mech handbrake, more than adequate, when combined with a 284 mm diam front vented rotor, and four piston calipets that attach to stock mounts.
The double wishbone front end is plenty strong, no issue, Nissan over engineered it.
Rear ends in the later 2000's ran an upper torsion/anti axle wind up rod on rh side, a duplicate is done for lh side.
A few have been done in usa, their greatest isdue is the left hand drive setup fitting in with the brake masters, clutch master, and plumbing for turbo assy and exhaust, very busy.
Ive dummied up a s14 sr20 det into it, just need cutting and fabricating done.
Intention is to run stock steel wheels with original 2000 hubcaps, no bonnet scoops or outward signs of conversion, save for slightly larger exh pipe on exit.
Should be interesting.
