    I know this is a stupid question but it's been bugging me all day.

    Looked around for specs on S12's and everywhere i look (wikipedia/australian s12 owners club/carfolio) says the s12 is a Fwd car :(

    Need some help to find some reliable info on them

    Thanks

    Nissan 200SX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Says it is RWD.

    (FR doesn't mean front wheel drive, it means engine front (F) and driven wheels rear (R) )

    ...so yes, your question is stupid :p

    Thanks for the help everyone, been a member on a few forums and to ask a question like that on any of those would have meant me getting alot of nasty posts.

    Proof that DW is the best forum and all the members i've had the pleasure of speaking too are nice people
