That Nissan motor would be about impossible to get I’m pretty sure not to mention incredibly expensive if it was available.

I was talking to my excellent mechanic buddy today, he’s the guy who put an LS into a Porsche 928. He got it cheap because the original motor was shot. I asked him what he thought about putting a BMW six cylinder into a kit car. He said it would be difficult, getting the wiring harness and the ECU hooked up correctly could be tricky. He is much more in favor of an LS or a Coyote.

I don’t really see the point in having a car that weighs 2300 pounds having 500+ horsepower, or even 400 from a V-8 especially when you can get 300 with a four-cylinder.
