a few questions if someone could help

was wondering if any one had the specs of a g50 as far as weight and weight ballence goes. and how do they handle?

i can get my hands on a parts car for basicly free, it needs an engine, and a few misc things, as they were robbed to repair an other one.

if they are a reasonably ballenced and not TOO heavy im tempted to put my ka-t and 5spd into it and make it a drift ****, i can pull over 430hp out of the ka, so it would be plenty even if the car is a lil heavy but if they dont handle very good, then it would be a no.

lol @ swapping a v8 for a 4 cylinder, turbo or not.

curb weight is around 2 tons for the early generations. no idea on weight distribution.

if i'm not mistaken they have forums for mad tyte drift skills.

damn, thier heavier than i thought. but as for the swapping the v8 out for my 4cyl... just because i have half the cylinders as the v8 doesnt make it a worse choice. to get the same power/torque out of the 4.5 i can pull out my engine the way it sits and just toss it in, i would have to build up the v8 and turbo it and adapt a manual tranny, which i would rather spend $5-15k on the suspension, wheels, and a kit for the car and put the motor that i have allready built that has plenty of power into it.

im on the "mad tyte drift skills" forums. i am bord with my 240sx and would like a fresh platform and am simply looking at the pro/cons of the q chassis. sorry if i offended you by wanting to drift a beet up q45

i have always liked the looks of the q, and they are dirt cheap. also my motor/tranny/wiring is 100% reliable, q45 engine/tranny/wiring seams to have plenty of issues, so by swapping over, i should have a fast, 5spd, reliable q45, which are few and far between. correct me if im wrong
