yup they sound awesome.....the Supra is a bit more reliable than the RX7. but yer right about the RX7 being lighter......but best of both worlds - RX7 body with Supra engine. i forget where i saw it, but someone did the conversion in a yellow RX7. they went with the Supra engine instead of keeping the RX7 engine because they are more reliable......damn i bet that thing can fly though. too bad theres no street legal kit :o hehe

they do have kits for the IS300 though, i think the cost of the total conversion is like $10k though.....thats quite a bit of money to put into like a $30k car. pretty cool though nevertheless.
