'The Perfect Automobile'

I have no affiliation with this car whatsoever, but figured y'all needed to see this.

Turbo S14 (E30 M3) powered Evo, FTW.

I'd say that's a perfect (and equally as expensive) car.

I was just playing the devil's advocate with this thread.

However, seeing as I have soft spot for the S14 I did think it was sort of cool.

All hail 4g63!

The S14 is a legendary engine. The M10 block that it uses is the same cast iron block in the Turbo charged Brabham BT52 that put out 1500hp in qualifying. Now with that being said the 4G63 is legendary too in WRC etc.
They are both winners in my book. Both have propeller logos as well.

I agree seeing I also have a soft spot for s14 since I have owned two e30 m3's . The 4g63 does rock and hold its own against anything though.

Ugh...lol wtf is this crap, An evo should have nothing different than the 4g63 along with few exceptions. I like to call motor swaps like this transgenders because it's pretty much the same concept. Your taking one sex and mixing it with another. I too love the silvia/204 platform in all ways, currently have an s15 spec r as my summer beater, But this is just retarded I mean camon people. This is almost worse than dropping an ls1 into an s14.
