I like everything except those front wheels... I think they just ran out of time in putting it together so I hope they finish it once it gets back from gatebill. a rear spoiler i think would definately be needed with how aggressive this car is...

A little disappointed in the 2JZ swap. Yeah yeah, I know why, the 2JZ is a proven platform with a bunch of parts for it, yada yada. I just want to see something badass done with the FA20.

I don't want to start a Toyota vs Subaru debate but if it was 100% built by Toyota, I couldn't only imagine the potential.

I want to see any form of Porsche flat 6 in there.

A GT3 RS 3.8 (or 4.0!) would be heaven....

This is a good way to go turbo without having to worry about direct injection and high compression.
