And even if you manage to do it, how long will the motor last? Even with a fully build (forged) motor you won't see 100,000 miles, and you won't see the same level of drivability.

EDIT: Don't forget upgraded front suspension, bigger wheels, brakes, independent rear suspension, LSD, you'll need all those things too.

don't underestimate the power of the homegrown tuner... we have connections to get great hook ups on parts, we have the tools and know how to install them our selves... so.... I bet you I can take my $13k Yaris, drivetrain swap it myself and tune the motor in my fucking garage for $10k, yes I am considdering all the custom parts,mounts and what ever bullshit I would have to fab up, but geuss what, I work at a machine shop, my brother works at a machine shop, and my step dad works at a machine shop... I am sure between the 3 of us I can get what I need for a very limited cost (Beer & material)
