vg30de but can't tell if it's TT or na. Odd swap because probes are fwd normally but this engine is placed n/s.

That has to be a Photoshop job, there is no way to convert a Probe to RWD, let alone try and cram that engine in there.

ok... it is a non-turbo 300Z motor photoshopped in... but you have to admit that it was good enuf to trick most people at a first look.

I was invetigating the probe forums today after finding out a local probe I know runs 13.5s on NOS

I've seen weird swaps before. Once I saw an E36 BMW with a SR20DET! It was NOT fake!
