Epic Build Threads From Other Places

I have been toying with this idea for a while, mostly because work has been slow and I get up to date too quickly on my Zilvia builds.

The way I would like it to work is that a poster will link a GREAT build thread off of another forum to here. I doesn't have to be 240sx/Nissan, but does have to be automotive related and absolutely top notch. I don't want your buddys shitbox Cavalier build from your local street-racer forum. Also, check to make sure it isn't a members only viewing privilege, ain't nobody got time for that.

Builds can be finished or continuing and please post a short description with the link to help searching. Enjoy.

I will start with these:

2WD, intense fab work, trophy truck, F150
Daily Driver Prerunner NF155 - Ford F150 Forum - Community of Ford Truck Fans

FC, custom built 4-rotor, made from scratch eccentric shaft...
4-Rotor FC Build - RX7Club.com

IS300, widebody, 335 tires
Custom Flares/Paint Project-335's in the rear?!*UPDATED 9/21*Photoshoot on pg 21 & 22 - my.IS - Lexus IS Forum

2.5 years to build a motor that still wont last 120k miles.

Might as well have built it out of muir and witchcraft.

I'm normally against defending rotaries, but you're an idiot.

He's making a motor with mostly bespoke parts.

THAT is the hard and time consuming part.

Tossing some new seals and possibly irons in is easy if/when it blows.

Here is my knowledge of rotaries besides how fragile they can be. Mad Mikes engine(or engines like his) > Everyone else. Does this engine move it to John Huijben > Mad Mike and everyone else?
