    if it has the full drift set up all round, then it should be fine

    As long as it's the full setup. I'd be hesitant if it's only a partial set up.

    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    A good driver should have no issues with such a combination...

    Depends on how far through the firewall the engine has been moved back, sounds like a pretty shit idea to me personally.

    RB engines aren't light, this would put a lot weight forward of the front wheels. I don't know what effect this would have on how it behaves. If you want a Nissan engine then why not a boosted SR?

    My questions would be how much does he want for it ?? & how well does it go & handle now, has your mate seen it run ?? & if not He needs to see it run on the track & speak to some other people that have seen the car run too .. Has the conversion been done well ..

    Why is the Guy selling it, because it handles like a bucket of shit ??, if done well it could be a good thing, ( if done well though ) ..
