I was curious if a 2zz swap would be possible. As you may know I don't own a 6gc because I have no money frown.gif, but I have always loved the 2zz (despite 7gc ... you know). It does great work in the Lotus Exige and I really admire the Lotus team for giving this great engine a new life.

It would be a devestating swap what with all the custom fitings and pipings, not to mention electrical work and mounting. Would it even be worth it to have VVTL-i in a 6gc? I know a 3sgte would be a far better use of money, I know that it is only succesful in the Lotus because of its superior internals and its incredibly light weight, blah blah blah. But it would be damn unique no?

edit: I got to learn to search these things before I ask... I have my answer already. My bad.
