well my shrink says im not insane, so no. a non-toy motor makes some sense. i'd be better if she was a bit lighter. however, she does have an independant rear suspension, which makes for a very smooth ride. as for matching performance to a 1jzgte, its called the ls1. or you could do the ls2 if you've got spare cash.
