Start the controversy. Imagine, if you will, the smooth torque of a VQ while driving your 8. Leave it stock except for intake and exhaust. Most people can't handle a 500hp monster. Everyone I know with a car like that usually has things like stock brakes and runs it into something. Imagine having no cats and being able to breathe behind your car while it runs. Imagine the gas mileage. Then realize you miss your rotary and all the noises it makes.

I hope there is some part of this car's budget for tires and brakes. Don't be the guy that says, "Look how awesome and powerful my car is now! It does crazy burnouts! Here are pictures of it wrapped around a tree with those Corvette engine covers peeking out from under the hood."

Sorry if you are insulted. I liked your attitude about your project and decided to keep an eye on it. Just trying to liven things up a bit with the other stuff. Chill out a bit. I have seen too many people add a ton of power to a vehicle with no investment on anything else and immediately run it into something. Be careful out there.

11 pages of bs for a single picture of an engine and tranny on a crate.
I think this swap is a neat idea, and am interested in seeing where this goes... but so far this is the worst build thread I have ever read. More pictures and info.
