Everyone has heard of the Bullet, did anyone know it was powered by a supercharged 1UZ-FE?

Here's the article, I'm not a member so I can only read half.

My house mate was looking at doing the conversion but changed his mind when he worked out it was going to cost at least 20k.

Luke yer mate seen it
the guy 2 workshops down from me races Bullets race car for them.
he has just done Mt Bulla in it in 40 deg days and cooked the crap out of it.
but when it cooled down it still keeps on going .
he could only give it a pounding for 3/4 of the hill climb and then it would cook its self.
but you have to think about it being pounded up a hill at 160km/hr in 40 deg heat i recon any of us would get a little hot under the collar.
it should be on speed week soon
and he has some great footage from the inboard camera as well .
i should be able to get my hands on it when i do i will post it up some were.

When they first started making them there was a turbo rotary version as well, which must have had a better weight distribution!
