True, they could have put other motors in it...
Would have been perfect with an LS9.

Wow. Definitely amazing attention to detail and thought put into that build. Only thing I'm not crazy about is the exhaust/tips.
A twin-turbo LSx motor could make as much power, but they are correct, the 2JZ is unique.

It's still a bad *** car. I love the 2JZ as much as anyone, but still tend to agree with the above. Regardless, the car overall is insane. Outside the box, and no expense spared.

yeah, but everyone will be dropping the LS9 in into classic camaros now
the whole point of this car was to do an engine swap that was AGAINST the norm........this car was meant to cause a stir......people will either love the uniqueness, or consider it blasphemy, but either way it gets you talking about the car.
the only thing i dont like is the exhaust tip arrangement, and i wish they had some undercar shots so we could see the suspension setup, but other than that, the car itself and the interior look TOP notch.

wow!!!!!! you have to appreciate the workmanship that went into the car......everything looks pretty much to be as good as you can do.
At $166,800 reserve not met.....wonder where the reserve was set at?

Pretty amazing craftsmanship.
Color scheme is killer. IMO, the exhaust is a miss and although I like the innovation with the engine selection, the wastegate dumping doesn't sound quite right on a gen 1 Camaro. Would be a grand slam with a forged/blown LS7.
Price seems a little optimistic given the economy, but if you have to ask....

I believe EVS Motors is (or was) a vendor on the forums. I'm curious to know as well.
