Go hard or go home.
Might upset the weight distribution.

unique snowflake syndrome

thanks to the internet, you have available to you pictures and info on every single cool 86 in the entire world. maybe a handful of people have LSx swapped 86's, and a couple more than that have 2JZ swaps. out of the tens of thousands of 86's worldwide. if that's too "played out" for you, you're going to have to come up with an engine swap that's so nonsensical that nobody else in the entire world is going to want to bother with it.

if LSx and JZ swapped 86's are "too played out" for you, show me how many people have them in your city. hell, even your state. do you go to car meets and see three of them there already?

you can already pick between BRZ or FRS, a bunch of different colors, there's at least a half dozen widebody options already, tons and tons of different lighting available, a plethora of other aero parts, and between 5x100 and 5x114 you've got a lot of choices for wheels. if you can't come up with a unique 86 you're a fool.

20B, or not 20B, that is the question—
Whether 'tis Nobler to do the motor swap
With the Slings and Arrows of outrageous rotary ,
Or to take Arms against a Sea of LS1s,
And by opposing end them? 'Tis a boxer engine
No more; and with a welding torch, to say we end.

With apologies to Shakespeare.

With money anything is possible

Maybe your friend should decide what motor he wants and then go from there, with enough money and determination im sure he could buy a motor from an F1 team and cram that in the car.

haha i had just finished watching that and then saw this and thought if it can move that big car it should do ok in a small car like a brz/frs if it even fit.

continuecrushing · 07-23-2014, 11:44 AM

what if we swap over to something like an airboat? So we can drive through swamps and stuff?

Big ass motor+fan on the car...

funny story, i knew a guy with a 240 who swapped in an RB20 and literally drove it off a cliff at "The dragon."

I don't get the need for the trolls etc...

Simple question can be simply answered.

So far the list is 2JZ and LSx.
