The A31 was its own car with no US equivalent. The a32 on was the same as the i30/35. It was RWD (supossedly available in AWD) and form what I know equiped with a rb20de, rb20det, or rb25de depending on model. I believe this was the car that started the rumor the the old q45 had a rb26 in japan cause there is a loose similarity in the looks. However I was not aware of the cefiro being actually available with a 26...thats pretty nice. Here is a pic



Slightly off topic, but what the hell.......
