    I've always wanted to see an 80's Nissan z31 300zx converted to mid/rear engine, would be slick seeing a nice done up engine thru the hatch glass

    It's super tempting to just move the entire front subframe to the rear, but that isn't going to work as you imagine. I could regurgitate what I learned, but just take the time to watch this video; th-cam.com/video/BRY2yi2Rcso/w-d-xo.html. I'm not trying to discourage this guy or anyone else from thinking outside the box, I want to do the same thing to a Focus, but we might as well know what we are getting into.

      It’s hard to put a number on it but if you bought a running and driving car at $x and you had a hatchback shell at $x. There isn’t to much extra added in. Just the metal used to brace the subframe back in is the only real added expense
