I had a photo of that engine a long time ago, I think it was in a tuner mag from Japan circa '99 or '00...

It doesn't resemble the original motor at all. Custom built from scratch heads, ITB's, extra injectors all over the place, carbon fiber intake ducts, the works...

Its VERY respectable, but replicating that motor is not possible unless you can find the original one, and certainly not possible to replicate those numbers with a stock block or even a modified stock block.
