waste of money its cheaper to put it in a 240 and the 240 weighs less then the s2000 or the FD. i think FD should be v8 only. and dont say nothing about handling cause that engine will **** up the weight distrabution of all 3 cars. so if its for drag 240 is the way to go weighs less, cheaper and can fit bigger wheels+tires w/o fender modification. i got 18 forged rays wheels with 285/35 18 tires on my s14 and no rubbing even through hard corners and no fender mods

Just put a 3mm head gasket in it and boost the stock motor. Itll easily handle 500hp on stock internals.

Why go RB26. 2JZ is such a better motor that has a huge aftermarket and easily accessible parts. compared to a motor that never even made it stateside.

This is kind of like my roommate from college... (100% True) His name was Musaki Honda...He was from Toyota, Japan. He went by Honda, Thus making him Honda from Toyota...He should be driving this car.

He always wanted me to Introduce him to large breasted blond American woman...Like on Baywatch. I miss that guy.

I looked at getting one of these after i sold my Evo 9MR...what I found was that these cars were total crap...These guys in the video even got banned from S2KI.COM (the s2000 equivalent of EVOM)...I believe to this day only 2 of the cars they built even runs....One guy bought one from them and had to have a shop up in Wash DC redo almost everything to get the car to run properly.... The swap is a great idea, but it was poorly executed by these guys......
