If the motor is mount'd in a way that keeps the tranny in the stock location

We used the Hisnon subframe with my 20B fd project. I got a beefer drive shaft, but it was the same length as stock. We did shift the engine a little to the driver's side to give more room for the turbo setup, but this still worked fine with the stock tranny and same length drive shaft.

Can you post a picture of that? I'm having a tough time getting the GT42R to fit and am thinking about going that route since we have to modify the subframe anyway

Drop me a PM with your home email and I'll email you pics of the subframe setup and engine shift to help fit the turbo in. The pic sizes are too big to post to the forum with the 250KB limit, and I suck at trying to manipulate them to compress for sending.
