Lets see....
- The torque is insane on that motor. There are turbo'd s2000 owners who dont even have that kind of torque.
- The engine will be more reliable with light mods than a f20/f22 with the same power output
- You dont know how much the motor weighs either. The ls1 is barely heavier than a f20/f22. A s2000 with FI will have the same weight (maybe less). So the handling wont be an issue. Get your facts straight.

i'd love to get a ride in that or drive it.
the only thing that would stop me from doing that if i had the money would be that it would sound like American muscle, and if i saw an S2000 body putting out a sound like that, it just wouldn't seem right to me.
good luck to whoever's working on this thing

Any specs on the transmission/drive train. With that torque they have to be beefed up or replaced? That is an insane car. How fast to 60? 1/4 mile?
I want to know the specs on the drivetrain also.. Most likely I think a Skyline/Silvia rear end probably
