Doug was very excited to wheel it over and see how it fit and even more thrilled when it fit as well as it did. It's certainly a bit taller than the LS, but there are ways to make it work.

That's amazing because off the line speed is usually about traction and GTRs have plenty of that.

For that you bolt on a FBM kit and some E85 and beat a GTR all day long.

A stock one of course lol

Nah people are sticking Ferrari v12s and Synergy v8s in to the FRS/BRZ/GT86 chassis. Those engines are double if not triple the price of a R35 GTR engine. It is just the issue of size that makes the VR38DETT a problem to install.
