that kit has been around. Personally I think the kit is ok because to me there are still many visual cues that its an ft86, and its not an exact replica of the LFA. The only thing i don't like is the lexus badge.

it's too expensive for the kit but for sure there are enthusiasts in Japan have the turbo under the hood to make it complete meaningful mini car. 400hp would be sick
