thought that might be the case.
did you know the "LS" fits in there quite nicely as well. Saw a couple at Toyotafest last year.
the Blue one looked totally stock until the owner opened the hood

Image
grey one looked like it was just lowered with rims, at first
Image

and yes those are Nissan brakes on the grey one, I believe they were 350 or 370Z, don't recall exactly
