TAS 2010 Sedan

Thought I would share this from www.speedhunters.com :

These are the kind of cars that define TAS! Under the hood of the Shonan Car Friend V35 Skyline was a 430 HP SR20...



...mated to an HKS GT2835R turbine. The massive engine bay where the VQ35 used to lie is so big the engine seems to sit very low, which must be good for weight distribution.



Stance was great too with the 19-inch Advan RSs sporting very aggressive offset.



More stuff I found using the google:

That's not a custom bumper - it's got a coupe front conversion (look at the headlights)... have we seen this car before?

^Correct, coupe front end conversion. I haven't seen any pics of this car posted here before.

He needs a USDM battery cover

^Yeah I know which one you are talking about. That guy had different wheels too and was a different color (laser red).

EDIT: Here is the ride you are talking about.

That's a cool and interesting ride. Not sure about the powerplant though 2 liters is just tiny any way you cut it. Even a JDM VQ30DET would be a better choice.

I could have sworn i saw somewhere on here that the very early sedans(2002) with 2.5l engines came with the front the same as the coupe. It only came out overseas supposely. I think that red one is one of them.

^+1 on the SR20 being too small. I'd even take an RB20 over that.
If you're going through enough trouble for an engine swap and want to keep it in the Nissan family, a RB25, RB26, VH45, VH41, and VK45 are all better options IMO
