Someone is going to talk shit on having an "American" engine in a Japanese car... Not me I think that's a badass swap.

@maxon18s Your right, my mistake. They looked like those goofy clear euro lights all these kids put on civics and neons.

i think someone saw this when it was first built and went, "hmm, i wonder if we could do any better?"...ISF comes out...still can't do better than this monster!

@maxon18s I'm the current owner. I picked the car up in June. Matt did a ridiculously good job of putting this car together - I feel really lucky to have it. I did a track day in the car a few weeks ago; there's an in-car video on my YouTube page for anyone that wants to check it out. - Nick

stop hating on the tail lights, this car is "The Altezza". the first car to introduce the tailight design before assholes started copying it for civics and accords and making them corny.

[sciullo779]

take off the stupid altezzas and it will be perfect

@atsmatt i saw it at a car show in GA. the car is incredible man. very nice job

[atsmatt]

@maxon18s I'm the one that built the car originally and I still owned it in this video. The new owner is in Georgia I believe.
