hey Shea i did want to do a 2jz but cant do it due to capacity. wasn't happy . so other option is a honda s2000 motor but very expensive. the other a autec s15 motor 140 odd kw n/a power or a sr20 det minimal mods rear mounted rad .its easier for me to do the sr but i did wanna try summin different. not sure yet. itll be a slow project[88][88] i cant wait to get the arches .[:p]how is yours coming along ??

andy mate, cant say ive worked on it lately. ive got in contact with mk1 lotus (paul truelove) from here on the forum so when hes got his gbox and diff tunnels back in stock it will be full steam ahead fitting them.
hey just remembered 2jz is a supra motor. for some reason i was thinking of the fj20,
so let me be the 1st to say you crazy mother f***** haha!!
my understanding was if you can prove the car is strong enough, can stop and turn to engineers specs then you can do just about anything?? ie v8 in a mini. especially qld...???
