I love the work you've done here. I only wish something like this could be registerred in Australia, to legally use that car on the road here it would have to be registerred as a brand new individually constructed vehicle and comply to all current laws for emmissions, lighting, noise etc etc.
I'm not so sure about the 18RG, never really been a fan but it should be easy enough to replace wth a 3SGE and 6 speed ot of an Altezza if you get bored. Personally I'd go for a twin turbo 1UZ 4L V8, I think the rest of the work desserves it.
I agree on the Toyota V8, it only has this as I allready had it for the car.. and by the time this car is built I would hope to have a little bigger of a budget for that kind of power plant.. but as of now I am just working on getting the car shaped out of metal.
I haven't had much time for it lately, unfortunatly. But I hope to get some more shape to her soon.
