well, I personally think that they ruined it. take out one of the best HP/TQ producing 4 cylinders ever made with AWD, and throw in a gas hog v8 and convert to RWD and lose all traction destroy the body/suspension/frame, everything. UGH!

The LSX isn't even close to being a gas hogYeah we all would prefer a laggy big assed turbo car to instant torque from a V8. Ricers

eh, for the money spent to do that , you could have eather a really fast evo, or a really really really fast factory powerd ls1 car. its cool to do stuff like that to gen 2 rx7s , or 240s. i just dont see the point in ripping a $30,000 sports car apart . to put an engine from a $30k sports car into it. its like buying a cobalt ss and ripping the engine out to put a supercharged k20 into it.... but once again, they did a good job on the swap. its pretty cool , but it seems like it was just fools with too much money and too much time..and i dobut its awd , the engine is to far back and too low , + no smoke from the front wheels...

No everyone would prefer a car that probably handles like **** now and just spins.

looks like he had plenty of tq to me. looks like he let all those cars get the jump since he knew he was gonna walk them. Even then, most of them didn't put anymore than half a car when he just blew right by them. Even if they were on nitrous.
