You're missing a turbo, wheres the other one? Twin high mounts FTW

Boy wonder needs to fix his priorities. Less modelling next seasons release of clothing for snobby metrosexuals and more time helping your mates.

It's a process of elimination for this. -7's won't do 350kw, I've seen -9's reach 350kw (didn't have anything left to give) on a literally spare no expense build, -5's will get to 350kw without too much effort but as you should've read by now they get killed by 7's and 9's under 4500rpm, 5's really require a stroker engine. It's not really hard, they all have their ratings and own characteristics-you need to decide for yourself which suits you best or on the flip side if you'll change your goal to allow a wider range of choices eg if you drop 30kw off your kw target you can have your choice of turbos. Also if you havnt been in a car with that power before, don't get hung up on the number, there's 350kw cars that have such laggy power delivery that a well sorted 320kw one will have it most days. IMO you're better off with -9's and just run at 24psi and enjoy the result. It's all well and good to say you've got a 350kw car but if it only makes peak power for 2000rpm it will be a shitbox to drive through hills and traffic even though it will feel fast due to the transition onto power. Food for thought

Yep. Awd heli's will get big cheers from the crowd in the rain

A bit out of date, but good images nonetheless (cooling, not car launch)

From their fb;

Not the F1, still a macca though Hennessey plan to mod a 12C;

I like that they didnt put the shit nose on like the other teams so far, and made the slope gradual. Interesting hearing Boy Wonder talking about it being tricky to drive with no EBD and also interesting to hear it's got less drag on the wing this year. They had heaps of straight line speed last year as it was

Haha I mentioned it to get any thoughts from him.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/390171-r32-gtr-silver-immacule-car/ Seems like it's got a lot of good stuff on there (Alcons, turbos), but seeing the price it will never sell. So maybe make a realistic offer?

Fkn wow. That would sound SO good

McLaren Fb have some nice pics on there;

Best post in this thread. I'd be out the door at "change the head while you're at it". At least do springs first!

Got to admit, you're consistent haha Havnt heard of speed fab before-tell us a bit about them?

Practical street car talk is over here; http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/236467-definitive-guide-to-building-300-330awkw-gt-r/ Enjoy! (Not being rude, but anyone in here with 400kw doesn't really give a shit about practicality)

Pic is 3rd last here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/389335-kkr-silicone-hoses-reduced/page__pid__6203511#entry6203511 Wiggins style clamps either side maybe? Just had a thought, if you piss those manifolds off and are happy to start over, a set of manifolds with the inlet facing up about 45 degrees may be a good place to start. Intake piping wouldn't be as right, just a shame the dumps and front pipes wouldn't be as easy

Wow that's a mission. My fingers are crossed you get a great result for all this effort. Instead of silicon joiners maybe use the metal extension otomoto sell if possible

Dates

Saved this pic today, someone on Facebook shared it but can't remember who

Got to be soon, shit official app-it should just update like every other app. McLaren car release tomorrow. Pretty much a week of releases

^pretty much exactly my point. Horsepower isn't free, and as Aaron mentioned there comes a point at which these cars go from a reliable fun toy which doesnt cost much to an all out black hole for money. Spending within a persons means is fine-good on people who do that, but I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about the increase in people who for example bolt on a highflow turbo, fmic, injectors etc then won't spend money on a quality ecu or quality tune and wonder why the car drives like crap. Anyway, this is off topic, anyone in this thread with 400kw plus understands the expense and is under no illusion that certain things can't be done on the cheap

+1 Dave. So sick of the "how do I raise my boost for free" shit threads and people wanting mega power on a shoestring budget lately! How's your setup coming along for power cruise? Give us some good news!!!

$1650 is the exact price from the local distributor (Advan in Sydney) including the required upgraded map sensor if you're running higher boost. Link really would be smart to just include the better map sensor standard.
