Most things are possible if you have the balls  ;D ;D

Custom engine mounts and a bloody tight fit though  ;D

Somebody round here ?

Anything is possible, indeed. Probably wouldn't even be a tight fit - RB25 isn't all that big really, being narrow could probably go back hard against the firewall with some custom engine mounts, custom transmission adapter, custom engine management, gauges etc..

Doable, though why you wouldn't use the right engine (RB26) I don't know ;)

Also the 4.0 Toyota V8 can be fitted as per the RATS car.

Omegatoy had the Lotus

Heard of a downgrade to a Rover V8 ;D ;D :-/ :-/

Rumours of a Senator engine in one as well

Yes and no!! as parts for that engine are damned difficult to get hold of now,so any breakdowns are more difficult to sort,

 plus we have a 3 litre lexus twin turbo, in the garage at the mo which is producing 365bhp on just 11lbs of boost :y it may just find its way into another body!!! :y

Rats had to cut the chassis. And fit a rack with that engine.
