AWD Coupes

I noticed the g35 AWD Sedan has the Altessa-ETS AWD system, most likely not as agressive as the one in the GTR's. Do you guys think that its possible to mod it so that it can be placed into the coupe? I'm not familiar with how it works so sorry if this is a stupid question to some of you. I dont care about the weight issue...that's not really the point of me asking. I just want to know if it's possible. And how hard would it be, has anyone tried it? And how much would it cost.

Well, I know that if the project was too complicated for Top Secret to do it to their "Project GT-R" (they dropped a freakin' TT VK45 V8 in it for christsake's!) then I know it is far too complicated to the mortal man (or tuner) - it would probably be cheaper to just wait until 2007 for the next GT-R....

i had talked to the guys at ultimatez where i had my s/c put in. they said it would an easy conversion because we share the same chasis. not sure on the cost - give them a call.

i am pretty sure it's a straightforward swap with the automatic transmission, linkage chain and axles to convert a standard g35c to a g35cx... might need a custom driveshaft if one from a g35x differs from a standard g35s.

i really want to see a 6 speed GETRAG transmission utilizing the attessa-ets traction control system in a coupe...

pretty sure its do-able to. theres already a buldge(sp) on the passenger side floorboard and the engine side for a Xfer-case to fit no problem.
