QR25DE revisited

[2Poor2Buy]

Hi All, I'm new here but not to forums in general...
I searched this forum and found a rather dismissive discussion of swapping a QR25DE into a 240SX back in 2003. At that time, I wouldn't make much sense, I agree.

I also found a thread on the subject ending in 2007 on NicoClub.

However, many trucks have since used the QR25DE in RWD configuration with optional 6-speed. Rather than duplicate my question, perhaps it would be better that I reference it here:
Potential swap? QR25DE into 240SX : 240sx General Discussion

CA SMOG laws make life impossible, and a swap to a later engine (with all wiring and emissions equipment) is the only thing they accept. Rather than use a VG or VQ, I'd consider using a RWD QR25DE from a truck.

Your opinions would be greatly appreciated, but please don't dismiss this out of hand.
