nubus to PCI bus (Quadra to G3)

We have 2 machines: a new 'Calibur and a "preowned" 'Scan that is hooked up
to a Quadra 650. To make the 'Scan a little more user friendly (and get some
of the traffic off the Calibur), I'd like to upgrade the Quadra to a G3. 

However, since the BD card in the Quadra that communicates with the 'Scan is
a nubus card, it will not simply fit in to the PCI bus slot in the G3. Is it
possible to use a PCI bus to nubus adapter?

Any other ideas, other than spending $12,000 for a PCI bus card?

Thanks,

Calman
