Yes, but you still have to have a WRX donor - there is a lot more than just the engine that the 818 uses. Plus, all the desigin work was for a subaru, you'd have to do a bit of fabricating to get something else, so this plus an engine will really drive the cost up on one of these.

But ya - a 480 hp LSx eRod would be just the ticket for that car :-)
