I have just swapped the drive train from a parts import 1987 CA18DET update model S12 Silvia, to an OZ legal S12 IRS Gazelle body shell.
This turned out to be a big job with loom, interior, drive train and suspension needing to be changed over to make it OZ legal. The rear end looks very 510 fittable as does the rack and pinion front end??? I now have a spare body shell with the old Gazelle IRS in it looking for something to do? They are a low slippery shaped IRS sports car with heaps of potential other than the RB20DET or RB25 DE conversions that are normally done. Think about a VH45DE in one ??
