Underneath the exterior shell sits a powerful TRD NASCAR V8 engine that displaces 358 cubic inches and delivers a cackling 680 horsepower at 8500 RPM. The beautifully finished engine features a custom air cleaner housing with dual conical air filters, with a paint scheme that matches the exterior of the car. NASCAR tricks abound, from the fuel pressure gauges mounted on the firewall, to the remote reservoirs for the brakes and clutch, to the massive billet aluminum strut tower brace that spans the front of the engine bay. And yes, before you ask, the engine is fuel injected, not carbureted, and uses distributorless ignition to light the fires. Making it street friendly meant adding A/C, power steering, and a reliable serpentine belt system, which makes this car as comfortable as a stock Camry in the day-to-day grind. Up front, a massive radiator with electric fans keep the potent engine cool, and you'll note that the engine has been set as far back as possible to improve weight distribution. Looking at the detailing throughout the underhood area, it's awfully hard to remember that this is a hand-built car, not something off a production line. Detailing is certainly impressive, but even more amazing is how OEM it all looks.

The engine is mated to a Tremec T-56 Magnum six-speed manual transmission with a Ram dual-disc street clutch. With a deep overdrive, the potent engine is capable of pushing the slippery shape of the street car deep into NASCAR territory. Racecar handling is achieved through modified MacPherson struts in the front and a Venza-modified multi-link independent rear suspension. Shocks are single-adjustable race pieces with coil-overs. The high performance of the NASCAR Camry can be heard through a custom three-inch exhaust with X-pipe, Thrush mufflers, Quicktime performance cut out, custom side exhaust tips and high temperature Turbo Black coating by H.M. Elliot Inc. The car sits on TSW Jarama wheels that measure 20 x 8.5 inches up front and 20 x 10 in the rear, and are fitted with 245/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear Michelin Pilot tires.
