If I do it, I'll spill the secrets fo sho.
I think your going to want more torque of all things. Your wheels/tires weigh to much for an NA SR imo. You would make what 160-165tq to the wheels? Considering your wheel and tire set up weigh close to mine (which is 94lbs for just the rears) I dont think thats enough. It would be like an S2000 with even less power. I'd say you need something with in the 200ftlbs region for it to be worth it.
Why not try the RWD QR idea you had? I know its a fair amount of work but it sounds worth it if you'd make the power you talked about a while ago.
