    I'm pretty sure that's what I have going on in the back... You'll have to run a big big spacer coming out the top of top hat to get it to work.

      I dont think so, if you swap to BG awd knuckels then you will need BG awd struts. especially for the rear the spacing between awd and fwd are to much

        I was pretty sure that AWD and FWD bg struts were the same... only the GTR's were different.

          in the front yes, its the same. Rears are different since the awd rear knuckle is different from the fwd rear knuckle. spacing on the holes and thickness. IDK if holes can just be redrilled or not

              It simplifies nothing.. I assure you. It does make it nicer, but not simpler.
