June 15, 200321 yr Author comment_40974 COMPLETE INSANITY!!! Could you imagine the hood scoop for that? It'll probably provide shelter for a family of four!! While it is fun to see this stuff, I am happy to see it on other peoples cars not mine. But it looks great.

June 15, 200321 yr Author comment_40975 A good looking AWD 240z that could be called riced out...But since it's mods are legitimate i think not. Outstanding Z, I had to post it.

June 15, 200321 yr comment_40977 i've seen the picture of that last "AWD" z on hybridz.org. its not AWD; in other pictures you can see a red top SR20 through the scoop. sooooo, its not AWD. as for it being on the AWD dyno, there was an R32 in the background, but i don't think you can see it in that picture. i spend too much time reading on forums...the blown V8 Z looks like a scary car.

June 15, 200321 yr comment_40979 Just because it has a SR20 doesn't mean it won't be AWD. In fact, it would mean it could well be AWD. Nissan sold a couple of cars with SR20DET/AWD platforms... Ever heard of a Pulsar GTi-R? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6635-240sx-or-240z/#findComment-40979 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 15, 200321 yr comment_40982 Hey Alfa,No chance of it being AWD SR20 as the GTi-R & SSS Bluebird AWD cars came with the east-west (front wheel drive) version engines which makes it impossible to fit between the towers.Now RB26 AWD on the other hand has been done in a Z but the one in the pic in my opinion isn't AWD. The left head light is missing & through it I can see the strut tube, if it were AWD a completely different set up is required so as to get the drive shafts to the front hubs.I hope I'm right about this one!If there's other pics of this car I'd like to see them.Nick.

June 15, 200321 yr comment_40983 yep.. true.. Nissan SR20DET engines... AWD platforms for common Sentra and Pulsar swaps.... AWD engine.. with AWD tranny that can be used in a FWD platform in an Sentra or SE-R with the original SR20DE tranny. So... the owner could of gotten an SR20DET... BLueBird... Avenir or GTiR engine to power his AWD Z Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6635-240sx-or-240z/#findComment-40983 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 15, 200321 yr comment_40992 So the SR20 will definitely not fit E/W Nick? I'll take your word for it as I'm sure you'd know... Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6635-240sx-or-240z/#findComment-40992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 16, 200321 yr Author comment_41010 the caption on the pic said AWD Z.I found the link....http://www.z31.com/~morgan/nd/?z/awds30.jpg Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6635-240sx-or-240z/#findComment-41010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 16, 200321 yr comment_41061 where the hell did it say there was an SR20 engine in it? Can an AWD SR20 powered 240/260/280z be accomplished...it will fit, it can be done.. just need to mount the engine. If an BLueBird can have an SR20DET engine an AWD tranny.. I absoultly sure yoou can simply swap the engine and tranny into a Z.

June 16, 200321 yr comment_41063 whoever said its a sr20, can you find those pictures, really interested. people can mistake a SR20 redtop for a red valve covers which are RB26 sometimes.. off the topic kinda, i'm in contact with a friend in japan, who saw a AWD rb26deT 240z that is in the making, owner is hoping for 8second passes, but its not a real 240z, its basically a R34 GTR chassis with a modified 240z body on top, if you know what i mean, the guy building it owns a major tuning place in japan, so major engineering is in it, and its supposed to be driving on the street also.... ... IE i don't know this person, just wat a mate of mine saw while visiting/working in japan... lucky he could speak japanese also.. hehe, i'm trying to make him go back and get pictures, but he says he working to much...
