I'm sure you can, but first your going to have to find an imported 200B
(sedan or coupe) with IRS, but once going to all that trouble, why not just
do up the imported car, unless you've already done a lot of modifications to
your current car I think it would be easier to simply buy a 200B with IRS
already fitted. Also the imported models came out with nissan gearbox, diff
and brakes, all superior to the Australian built models with borg warner
gears and girlock brakes.
Just a thought
