You don't really need to make a new nut if you're going to make the QR obsolete. Just do something to keep the original one held in place. Half a bit of pipe should do, weld, clamp or screw the two halves together. I'd think plastic would struggle with the forces involved.
Its a half nut on QR mechanisms, not a split nut. There aren't two halves....
