There are quite a lot of kickass ones on JDMST and EvoOz... too difficult to pick my favourites! My mate recently bought the 320kW atw R34 GTR off Fly on JDMST... sounds pure sex and has had such an awesome build. Too lazy to post links though.

yeah, but just the idea. Tbh I don't like engine swaps that much, they seem to lose the personality of the car.

totally agree w/ you. and not only personality loss, but countless mechanical, tuning, gearing problems that are inevitably always created.

a toyota starlet doesnt need a fucking 8.0L W16 with 7 turbos

that said, i think non-exaggerated engine swaps across models, within manufacture brands are fine.

e.g. i would have very little reluctance towards a 4age swap into a 95 corolla,

or a RB20DET into a s13

RB20DET is pointless when a 25 is the same size and just as available.
