lets face it, we could all go out and get a V8 if we wanted to, but where is the pride in actually tuning the motor and spending the time and learning how it all works and rebuilding an engine HALF the size of a V8 and getting the same power. You don't get that sence of pride just by throwing in a V8 into any car.

Accomplishment to get it in the car... yes. Bragging about having 8 cyl or how much HP it has... redundant.
we're not all jdm yo import ricers. 400whp out of a 4cyl sucks pretty bad. it takes a TON more work, skill, and automotive enthusiasm to rebuild an entire car to put an engine in the wrong side. bigger IS better.

all though considering the guys other posts, im starting to seriously doubt the validity of that car..
