But looking at this engine bay, your not working on shit no mater where it got placed.



A 3000GT Vr4 looks like a 90's Honda by comparison.

I wonder how many BS German Tork Head, Safety Star and other odd ball fasters the car will use. I hope to God Toyota had the decency to change the Hubs to Wheel Studs and 5x114.3.
5x114.3 would probably hurt the car's wheel options tbh. If 5x120 it can use CTR market wheels

Good thing you'll never buy the car. Refer to my meme earlier this page
