Sounds like alot of screwing around for the outlay you're proposing. You may find fitting a SR20DET with quad throttle bodies from the Pulsar GTiR less stressful in regards to fitment and legality.
The GTiR version utilises a very similar ATESSA 4X4 drive system to that of the GTR Skyline, but is more predominantly front wheel biased. This can be overcome to bias more rear wheel drive with a little ingenuity if you're willing to go as far as you state you will.
I conjured up a similar vision with regards to the same engine/driveline combo in a Datsun 1200. I researched and spoke to many engineers with differing opinions, end result was that it would cost a MINIMUM of $12,000. And that if anything were to break, it would cost a motza to repair due to the amount of custom fabrications needed to accomodate the 4X4 system.
With regards to a bodykit, i'd go half/half with the tidy/sleeper look. Maybe use the Z/ZZ kit without the bonnet windsplits, and conjur up a stylish yet modest front and rear bar to flow with the lines of the car without giving away too much.
Make people look and think "Hmmmm, that's a pretty tidy Gemmi, classy not overdone kit, i wonder how it goes ?"
Sounds like a nice vision, but are you really prepared to take on such a project - or is it doomed to end up in the Trading Post as an 'Unfinished Project'.

Gene ur one sad motherf*cker. Pardon me for being a genius. Your just upset cause u didnt think of it first. How about reading what i have written instead of calling it a ricer or offering to suck my dick. I have nothing further to say on the topic. Thanks to everyone else who has bothered to read it without the homosexual remarks

Gene FJ20DET

i know that, but just cos he thinks the second u hear godzilla u should think awd, dont mean everyone else does

Oh there u go talking about dicks again. Who cares about your shit little poof ute. I have made sure MY project is feasible and I dont do things by halves. Your 180sx is a ricer POS. Despite the fact I stopped talking about Gemzilla, you continue frothing at the mouth. You can not be completely sure its impossible. Now I have more motivation to complete it to stick it up your ass.
Thanks. Goatman. This is my last reply on this thread. Hav a nice day the rest of u
