Theres the SC430 motor and the SC400 V8 they could put in there...

Also, the turbos on the 2JZ are on the passenger side of the car, intakes on the drivers side. If you watch the remix video, he's on the dyno and the intake piping goes up the passenger side of the car

SC400 V8

2JZ

Engine looks more like the V8 in the SC400. So they could've swapped in the 400's V8, which is quite a cool swap in my opinion.

Kind of funny how the cameros, firebirds and one of the mustangs were slowly falling behind.. I wonder what would happen if they put a supercharger on one of them.

Its a factory IS300 V6 with either 1 or 2 turbos on it. Go to the website for the video. There are more vids there, it shows the motor (the factory v6), and dynoed over 500whp and 470ftlb tq

EDIT: The RED car someone posted as a picture has the GS430 V8 in it.......

Thats not the same motor bro... The car in the vid has a turbocharged (or 2) V6 (I dont think its 4.0L I think its 3.0 the factory motor) The red car (the IS430 prototype) has the GS430's V8 in it (340HP)... Maybe that will help.
