    Default What engine???

    Have a mint 180sx body there and a choice of a few different engines.
    In your opinion whats the best engine from this list.

    1. nissan 300zx twinturbo
    2. mk4 supra 2JZ-GTE
    3. mitsubishi 3.5 v6
    4. mitsubishi GTO 3.0 twin turbo
    5. rx7 rotary turbo (fd)
    6. levin 1.6 20valve on trottle bodys

    Some are small light engines but might be underpowerd for drifting and the rest are big heavy powerful bastards.

    1. nissan 300zx twinturbo
    No too troublesome and one of the only engines in the world that you can empty a bag of marbles over and not 1 will hit the ground

    2. mk4 supra 2JZ-GTE
    id go for this, easiest to fit, reliable and good power

    3. mitsubishi 3.5 v6
    no shite

    4. mitsubishi GTO 3.0 twin turbo
    no shite

    5. rx7 rotary turbo (fd)
    this would be the coolest and best option in many ways but it will break your heart trying to fit as every single thing will have to be modified and custoim exhaust etc etc.

    6. levin 1.6 20valve on trottle bodys
    not powerfull enough for a 180
