I would love to do a Z! I might look around for one. I wonder how a 2JZ would fit in it...

We could go down the old Supra route... A 1UZ with ITBs makes me feel all warn and fuzzy inside! I bet it would sound beautiful!


What about a Celica GT-Four? Can you find those in the states?
Sold as All Trac here. First two generations.

I'm pretty sure a motorcycle engine's exhaust sounds pretty sketchy in a road car lol. With an MR-2 a swap would need to be inspected and crap for sure :/

As a Supra owner, that is blasphemy.

So is this:
