Nope, turbo engine is rear wheel drive. Sorry bud. But if you don't belive me you can always just give it a shot.

You might wanna look into a J30 and then look into the JDM vg30det conversion....You would have a much better chance of getting it to work.

What's the difference between a FWD engine and a RWD engine? I thought it was transmissions that dictated an engines drive type.
