What is pretty crazy about the top one, is the fact that the conversions were done around 2002 or maybe even before that!

You forget they've had the car over there longer than us.

Wouldnt surprise me if someone attempted it back when the cars came out...

first 180 evo was the IV, 1996.
More common and preferred is the V engine due to crank issues being resolved (or atleast, improved)
