this is gonna be a fun as hell car to drive, i dont know the two motor's weight differences off the top of my head, but im sure you will mess with the front/rear weight a bit, but with 1000+ hp, weight distro doesnt mean much.. trust me i know, i have a 600+ Supra
as for "removing the heart" and whatever.. i say what.ever. i strongly dislike the 13b.. it scares me 0=>
as for the 2jz... its hard to compare to anything else..

im not familiar with your ecu choice, but i havent seen an 8 with wheels with enough meat to hold 500+ hp to the ground.. goodluck with the 1000! my supra has nt555s 35/305/18 and its like driving on ice..
cant wait to see this finished

eh, dont listen to the hatorade. modding cars is about what floats your boat.

gl with this engine. :P and remember, holding and burning out it at redline for 2 hours isnt good for most engines!

yeah you could be driving a ferrari, but dropping that kind of power into the car makes it good for one thing only and that's drag racing... so I doubt you want a ferrari.

I still cry on the inside to see one less rotary powered car, altho mazda has said they might introduce more rotary powered cars (I'm sure that just means a new rx7 tho)

GL and I hope the car can even move after all that power in it!

If you want, Look up the purple Skyline 33 or 34 with a 20B in it doing a football field burn-out!

hahah did u say your friends with quarter chicken. I think im in the same boat as the guy who posted the pic of the 2jayZ's. I aint believin a word you say until you can prove HOW you know quarterchicken and where he lives. But its ok apparently this guy has perfect credit. I.E. being able to purchase a NSX youd have to have perfect credit unless youve got money out the ying yang. But if you did then you wouldnt have had to sell it. Oh and btw Im pretty sure Ive talked with about 4 or 5 shops now including some of our local vendors such as synaptic, ptp, mm. All of whom say your about 99.9% Bullshit. And would have better luck with a skyline engine. But hey who knows maybe you are an eccentric millionaire or some guy who just knows all the right people.
