a good wash, clay bar and wax would really do your car a favor in the looks department. maybe not that hood but the rest of the body it would.

as for "swappable engines" not really any, just an erie VQ dropped in that has no real solid story behind it....what are planning on doing??

VG30ET will fit with some cursing and tinkering, I think you need to fab up a motor mount. I dont know about the VQs.

I can't belive No one, No one, has mentioned the VG30DET.

Come on now, a direct bolt on for the GXE/SE and no one tells this guy.

You can't fit the RB but the Vg30DET will just drop in. same ECU and everithing, direct bolt up. Its like a Turbo engine of whats in your car now. Crazy HP gain
