I hope not, but if you cant tell by our reactions no you cant lol. You can however for a few extra grand swap in a rb26 or 2jz.

you think the 2.0L is a big engine? is half the size of the VR4 motor. a 2.0L is pretty damn small. and no you cant do it.

That''s a serious project, I hope you have another car to drive around while the shop ''transforms'' your car.
