This would be a pretty serious alteration. One of those, "You can do anything with enough money" scenerios.

hey bro, takes allot, and a boat load of cash, my suggestion is do some indipendent research. put some time and effort in to your search and questions. souch a generic question like yours will get very similar reponses to what you have already gotten

allot of guys on here are very knowledgable about our cars, and cars in general, but there are tons of questions like your that are all speculation and no one ever acts on them just post about them. the guys that know what or how to do it just get bored and dont even bother answering becuase they know that no one will actually do it.

if you want an answer to this question you should do you research and help yourself as much as you can, wen you have specific questions i bet a bunch of guys on here will help you.

yeah it was red with a black top, oh well there is still hope. maybe someone with enough money can turn a XB into a drift car. That would be sweet!
