It'd be more than that.... hell, $8000 would get me a new car (CA18DET 180sx...would do...), and every round after the first, would be a few horsepower more to that 180sx....

I know what i'd prefer to do.... Even if it is a porsche, it only lasts so long...and its a race car, worth over $400 000....with 250RWKW or something.... Ahh, screw it, it'd be my only chance to ever drive one....It'd be worth doing for any revhead.. If i had the money to do it, then hell yeah, i'd do it...but right now i'm on new car savings budget

I'd love to be driving it at Phillip Island...that would be awesome there....If ya do do it, let everyone now and try and get all the sydney guys on here to rock up and play pit crew....

It is "only" about $240,000... also 280kW@crank and 1200kg (wet) from relatively accurate memory.

i actually believe it was over 300kw at the crack, with a power to weight ration of

211kw/tonne.....either way, its a beast - and thats the street version

and i do believe its a supercup car, as in Jim Richards bought one, ready to race, and it costs AU$400,000... it is not a a street car, and has more horsepower (yes, they got free horsepower, and turned up the boost), ride is better, stiffer, comes with the super flashy light weight wheels.. well, you get the drift, its a REAL racecar....

You have got yourself a bit muddled up, I think you are talking about Jim Richards' Targa Tasmania 911 Turbo which was in Motor Magazine a while ago, that is just a hotted up road car.

The car in the ad is a Supercup car which has 287KW power, weighs 1150 kg and costs a touch under $250k from your friendly Porsche dealer.

For about $400k you could get a 911 GT3 RS which has 320 kW (435 BHP) at 8,250 rpm with 2 x 30.8 mm dia. restrictors

    • Your both right, it may hold a bit longer then.  Soon I need to change the synchros, should I fit the billet plate while I'm at it? Or just a waste of money?
    • Some of the east coast US Stagea got together this past weekend at Lime Rock Park in CT for Grid Life Circuit Legends. This is probably my favorite pic of the shoot with @Morgan.Mundahl on IG. Hope we get more stags out next year! i think I spotted 5 other than my own at the event. 
    • Hi Cody, If you are looking for a simple "bolt in bolt out" solution, I may be able to help via trade. I'm swapping my auto RS4V from stock subframe to a reinforced S14 Rear subframe specifically for track duty. I was looking into different rear core options while the car was in air and I found your thread.   My VLSD rear is freshly changed fluid/inspected. I will say even with Redline diff fluid it is still not as aggressive as I would like with the "sports" viscous core, and coming from a heavily modded evo with full drivetrain I'm looking for a bit more rotation with the throttle.  I second this, the polyurethane bushings are pretty aggressive as is.  If you're interested in the trade, I am driving out to Chicago in September for a time attack event. I could swing by and make the trade somewhere Sept 12-13th or 15-16th if you are interested and you have not already solved this issue yourself. 
    • No, the panel filter is the standard dry one. Yes, I did clean the AFM with electrical contact cleaner.
