thats the mustang from the tokyo drift movie.
I'm not much into mustangs but I think the engine swap is kind of cool, nothing wrong with it IMO.
there has been discussions before on this car and the camaro that has the supra engine in it. it seems it a love it or hate it thing. personally I like both cars.72 Nova SS, on the back burner for now.
current cruiser: "The green machine"
'70 Impala 4drht, 26K original miles, 2" drop springs and large swaybars, drives pretty good for a land yahct
in the middle of an ls1 swap, but thinking about changing directions to a duramax diesel swap.

Thats a simple case of "I had that car and this motor."

imo cool car. the skyline motor can be built to make amazing power and its definitely something you can go to a cruise or show with and won't have to worry about seeing any others like it.

for the effort and money it would take to modify and put that in, couldn't they have just built up a turbo ford v8?
they said what, 350hp? maybe it's impressive from a skyline, but not from a mustang.
work in progress--for the next 10 years.

When modded those skyline motors are 600-800 hp easy. Not much tq, but that;s why you spool em up and let em fly.

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

yeah 350 in the motor is very mild tune. Those sixes cranking a ton of boost through them sound awesome. And its something different

I'd rock it for sure. I think that would be the coolest street fighter. And Supras around here are making 800hp on the street.

cool ride for sure but that's because they chose a great engine for it. I'd rock it.
