If money/budget is no objective you could probably fit the twin turbo nissan gtr engine and drivetrain.

the caliber srt4 engine and tranny should work since its built on the same platform as the lancer. The outlander rear suspension/awd subframe should work because once again its built on the same platform as the lancer.

each R35 engine is individually hand-manufactured. some have recorded an excess of 520hp. definitely is not a piece of crap for sure

New version expected to be release in Japan later next year will have 520+. I read it will only be sold in Japan and not the US. Very nice car to drop a few grand into .

thats the problem, because its hand crafted when it breaks down, which it obviously does really fast. theres no instock parts for it from anywhere
you'd have to send the engine and transmission back to be repaired by hand... a process which is both expensive and long lol

^Ha that's jokes. I didn't even look back when racing the Grand am. Didn't care, all I knew was I was in front and he wasn't gaining. His 170HP 3.4 auto Vs my 150HP 2.0 auto, who wulda thunk

Was even better when duckie beat the Turbo'd Civic
