Wondering if this has been done, and if so, how easy?

Help appreciated. Thanks.

The VQ35DE swap starts at the bottom of page three. Lots of custom fabbing and I still have to get the NATS removed from the ECU!!

Subaru Sti engine / Porsche trans swapped Half shafts. Worlds first mid engined Z Sweetness. Cuddo's never would of tried a modern engine swap. Unless it was a LS.
