sure it would be possible, but it all comes down to how much $$$ you have/want to spend, and of course having the knowledge/skills/access to things you need (eg parts, machinery etc etc)

Vvega has put a 1uz into an AW11 mr2, and ive seen a gt4 RC with a 1uz and Rwd. as matt said, how deep are your pockets??? 8) 8) 8)
I had vtax :(

Unless you are a bloody good fabricator then $3k is totally dreaming for that conversion. Having said that, there is a 1UZ Caldina that I think Boosted Performance built so have a chat to them.

Realistically, if you want a 4WD 1UZ just buy the factory version. There are a few floating around NZ.
