I've had vids of this car saved to my favorites on youtube for a year or so now. I LOVE THIS CAR!!!!
The 200 MPH run w/the R1 is my fav.
I'm planning a much milder swap in my '89 Mustang coupe...

Just...wow. This is by far my favorite swap I've ever seen. So much win!! You guys did an awesome job on the swap and making everything look good and clean. Thing looks stock other than the rims and giant tips lol. I'm surprised with how quiet it is though. Pretty cool it was tuned right next door in Durham. Yall ever race at any of the tracks around here?

Oh forgot to mention, awesome camera work and editing. Looks very professional. The top gear part was funny.

Love this conversion!

Remember not to mix bias ply tires out back with radials up front.... because once you approach speed the car can get very wobbly and unsteady.
