2JZ Toyota Supra engine in a classic Camaro (http://www.dpccars.com/car-videos-08/08-07-08page-2JZ-Toyota-Supra-engine-in-a-classic-Camaro.htm) is this a good thing or a bad thing???????????

I saw this a few months ago on google, the company that built it also builds up v8 muscle and such and they just say they wanted to do something different with this build and be unique. Well I think all of us on CF should know by now that unique is not always a good thing.

Meh. I say more power to 'em. (ironically...) Seriously, who gives a flying ****? I dunno about some other guys, but I have more important things to care about than what engine someone puts in some car. Like how long paint dries, or what I had for lunch yesterday.

That was a Silvia motor into a mustang.
youd think the responsiveness would be worse than just going with a 350 or any other chevy V8. considering weight I dont know that it would work out well. Hearing the exaust might turn some heads though

I know it was a mustang with a nissan motor but the principle stands.

Well if you look at it, that type of thing has been done long before FF3 but I get what your saying is that they kinda madeit public for the guys that don't pay much attention to cars.

It's not bad. It's unique. But I can think of at least three better motors that would have made a more logical swap.
LS1
LS7
LS9
All of which, built up, would offer more streetability, more stability, lighter weight, better average power, better reliability, and higher power outputs.
But for a unique swap? Not bad.

they put an RB26DETT a Skyline GTR motor in the Mustang not a Silvia motor.
