Yea the Ap1 have really gone down in value , pretty bad lately

The Batmobile looks mean.

Props to the creativity. But I do agree that it will be more impressive if it was done with a F-series engine. Inline-pro and the S2000 from Puerto Rico are running the F-series engine and making tons of power and great drag strip numbers.

I seem to remember a 34 page post of Firestryke's regarding installing an S2000 powerplant in a Miata that had over 134,000 hits.
https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=417646
Seems there was alot of interest in that swap.

Why would this be any different?
it recieved plenty of hits, because it was something new and people like to see "build progress" im sure if the owner of the 2J s2000 would have started a thread on his build it would have recieved just as many hits. When you try to be different your going to get mixed vibes,no matter what.

regardless of every ones opinion, which i respect, i think the car deserves exactly what reaction everyone is giving it... WOW!!! An 8 sec. S2000! Impressive I can only imagine the forces one feels in that amazing build of a ride. Mad props to those who made it happen...
yes the builders deserve their respect for creating this monster. no doubt


Some of the comments in this thread are why I moved mine to S2000 Talk. You'll notice that the people who have negative comments have never and would never be able to create anything like that 2JZ S2000 or anything else that doesn't just bolt together for that matter.

Judging much? Its just an opinion , everyone has one (just like assholes ). Your a grown ass dude, you should be able to handle negative comments, just like everyone has encountered at one point in their life. Plenty of people will like to do some major mods to their cars, but sometimes that car is your DD and you cant have it down for that long. Im sure those people that have bolt ons can create something to the calibre of a 2JZ S2000 or an F20/22 powered miata, its just that some people have to pay for all of their stuff, and therefore lack the funds to create such a thing
