Supra Engine in a S2000 means ugly fast. 1000 hp easily can be done from that engine!

I would love it though... any more pics or a list of mods? I wonder how they balanced out all the extra weight up front...

Why is a Toyota straight six the opposite of perfect? It isn't as if that is one of their sludgemonster V6's.

We're supposed to be Honda/Acura fanboys, remember?

I too wonder about the weight balance. The S2k was a front-midship design, but with that engine it's more of an FR now. Think lift-off oversteer might be an issue?

dude it adds 268 lbs to the front end of the S2k!!!!!!! do you know how much that is? its the weight of a 50" old skool rear-projection TV!!! can you imagine driving the S2k around with a 50" old wooden projection TV sitting on the hood?? that would SUCK!

I don't get it... I think the s2k with a supercharger is probably pretty close to perfection...

I can always tell when my cousin's friend Joe arrives at a party from the blower whine...

Now, I usually like motor swaps, but this one doesn't do it for me...

in a straight line, it has nearly unlimited potential.

Weight is only significant to a certain point; that engine can boost 1000 HP SAFELY!

I would love to see how the driveline is set-up. An S200 rear end can barely handle much power as it is, let alone all that torque from that motor.

i mean i am a firm advocate of having a car for roadcourse usage, but people have different tastes. surely this guy wants his s2k to rip across the line.

I agree. I think this officially falls under the "different strokes" clause.

this is what the guys on s2ki are saying. S2k +FI would probably be better, though I must say, the S2k with 2jZ would dominate in a straightline.

A guy I know has an '05 s2k running a front mounted intercooled turbo. The thing absolutely FLIES, and it only adds about 50 lbs to the entire engine bay.
