Maxima awd or rwd

Just wondering if anyone has tried making the maxima awd or rwd using the Infiniti g35, Q50 drive train or a 350z drive train etc I’m curious to know if it’s possible

I don't think it's worth the money to change it to RWD. You'd have to change the mounting of the engine to a longitudinal mount, you'd need a custom build and balanced drive shaft, custom rear axle to accommodate the width, etc. etc. The list goes on and on and not to mention what you'd do if something went wrong since everything is custom built. It would be easier just buying a 350Z or a Q50. I mean it would be cool to see but not at all practical mechanically or financially.

Much more viable to just buy an Infiniti with those drivetrains like VeeQue35DE says.
