V8 Miata MX5

I was in Gold Coast, Australia 2 weeks ago. While I was chilling out while my wife shops @ the Pacific Fair, guess what? I bumped into this! A rubber burning Mazda Miata MX5 mated with a Toyota 1UZFE V8 powerplant.. and that's not all, it's even SUPERCHARGED!

At first glance I noticed something was abit not right. The bonnet seems to have opened the opposite way. Then, i saw the lights were stuck together to it as a single piece, only then I guessed that under the hood must lie a monstrous heart. As I approach the car I heard a guy walking past me say to his friend "That's a V8 mate!".. I quickened my pace and was greeted by .... a 1UZFE engine!

There's an old mustang around running on Toyota 1UZFE V8 as well.

Heard it was hard to find parts for that Ford engine so.....

Maybe you know the owner too...
