I assume this is Third Gen related.
I didn't read this, I was just looking at the pictures and assume the motor came out of the yellow car in the background of the first picture.

Wow.... That totally controdicts my previous theory of ricers being a waste of metal. I cant even begin to imagine what kind of work must be put into that. Definitely some crazy engineering.

It's pretty insulting to have a wolf (Bowtie) power dressed in sheeps clothing.
I'd take that engine back out and drive that heap of scrap over a cliff!

:not me that's for sure. it would be a waste of a good motor
well ok let me rephrase. a waste of a good motor to power a heavier car like that. the car as a whole would be wasted. you need something with a little more oomph in a thirdgen to make any movement and stock honda just wouldn't cut it. the motor is better as a good motor in a honda I would say
