Awesome build, but why use a Nissan motor for a Toyota Body?
I guess it's like Blue Oval vs. Bow Tie...

^^ The 2 previous car were power by SR20, so he stuck with what he knows.


I like the way he approach the build. First, lets put the body on the ground. Than lay out the drive train to the body . . . and build everything else around it. It show where priority of this build is.
Super slam with ideal suspension geometry.:rockon:

When you have a motor + drivetrain that you're not using from previous project . . .
Plus saving good chunk of money that can be put toward other area on this built, why not.
