Default FWD conversion for the Z?

Hi,

has anyone ever wondered if there was a front wheel drive conversion for the Z? I know this may make the car handle like crap, but won't be improve traction in the rain? How much would it cost to convert it to fwd?

After further review... this guy is deltaforce... or a long lost relative.

Look at the threads he creates:

I've seen a skyline GTR drivetrain swap.

make it fwd and swap in ur camry steering wheel. Then get the horn that plays the blow off valve noise. Then dismantle every panel in your car to save weight.

Lol... I say keep this guy - makes life easier w/ humor like this.

"Why get a turbo charger when you can burn the 'psssh!' sound on to a CD-R for like a buck?"

"Would you rather have a 350z or a RSX with - some pool cleaning supplies?"

"I like my camry steering wheel - it's all brown looking but I got used to it, can you attach it to the Z?"
