Cheap and effective, get an R32 gtst4 front cut. RB20DET and all-wheel-drive box. Modification to the firewall wouldn't be that pricey. Check it out.
Your car may be able to go faster.
But I can go any where. except into a garage, underground carpark, bridge...

2 sticks and manual locking hubs. have to get out to drive it around
Good old Nissan.

KA's are the shit. According to all the info on the site, they are better then sliced bread and thats saying something.

lol i will - maybe this will happen, ofcourse the driveshafts are gonna be annoying, also the engine mounts, but i think that'd be it.

From what I have read a early 1990's laural share's a floor pan with the U12. The laural came out with a RB25DET and all wheel drive gear box was a option.

>.<

you can buy other branded pistons that match the spec of a ca20...evo pistons, honda pistons..

forged pistons are forged.

Bah! Its nowhere near as hard as people put it out to be. Like i mentioned Ammerty, I have full details and specs in my project thread.

But the nitty gritty -

No. The CA20 internals are *nowhere* near as tuff as the ca18det internals. Conrods are weak, and flimsy, and the pistons are more likely to fail. An easy swap is Mitsubishi 4G63 conrods with the big end width reduced 1.8mm and a bush to reduce the small end size to 21mm. Forged pistons can be either Mitsubishi or the ones im using, Honda B20B4 with the B16/A head from a CRV. All these will fit, no dramas. Your block will need to be machined and whatnot. To get the internals done, isnt that expensive. People are just fucking lazy, and want everything prepackaged and done for them for no cost.  ::)

This is old sure but it needs clearing up. The Nissan terrano gearbox is a Part time 4wd system like the Navara's, Pathfinder, Patrol. They have a big transfer case hanging off the rear of the gearbox.

There is no way in hell you will get the Navara, Pathfinder, Terrano gearbox into a U12. The closest thing you could possibly get to work would be a Nissan Xtrail gearbox. East west layout but it still a part time 4wd system.
