Considering there is a 3 rotor AE out there, I'm sure a V8 will fit without too much hassle.

Start measuring!

Ive looked at them... you would need to be creative with radiator/fan placement and the steering rack was in kind of a tough spot..

too much motor for too little car, if that makes any sense...
I think you'd have to do so much beefing up of the rear end and chassis that by the time youre done you lost a lot of the fun feel the hachi had going for it in the first place.

although the all aluminum lexus V8 would be cool with a supra manual tranny.
seen that in a miata in europe.

I though the F20C s2000 motor swap was enough fun for a hachi!??!?

Yeah they're pretty crazy. I wish I could afford the car, that turbo makes for a fun setup on a 3sgte, and with his suspension, wheels and such that car is like a go cart on steriods.
