We'll see how my financial situation is after paying fines and buying the parts for my 86...

I was more interested if anyone had done it before so i know if i'm wasting my money or not.

nope. you would be the first and very special and we would hang your jersey up among the hero's. Hell you might even start some huge trend if it works and everyone will know who did it first. You can call it the rx-6 conversion.

I'm mostly concerned about finding a running FC, if anyone has one which is wrecked, let me know, i'll make a post in the for sale section when i've achieved funding incase i cannot find one in a junkyard.

rx7's are the best thing us americans are gonna get to a skyline. That old mx6 front looks pretty cool. I thought it was gonna be a new one. Old mx6 look a hell of alot better than the newer ones

Just wondering... how'd you come up with that? We don't have AWD nor twin turbo 6 cyl. engines.

On the other hand, the MX-6/RX-7 photochop DOES look pretty sweet. I hope you can pull it off, because it looks badass even.

Infinity G35 is a Skyline.

Us Americans now have something better than the Skyline GT-R, the Evo.

First thing i thought of was who the hell would post an M3 in the 2nd gen section.......I kinda like it...much better then i expected. Whatabout a 240 sx front end? It would probably look stock..he he...

What do you not understand about an Mx-6 front end being much, much cheaper?

What part of MI? I'm about 3 hours south of the MI border.

I have to agree with the majority here... Go for it... I think it looks pretty damn cool... Plus if you pull it off you will have a one of a kind, or atleast the first of a kind... ( way to take a gamble)
