its a 20 minute video, but well worth it... the amount of engineering and planning is quite cool, none of this slap bang rubbish.

keep an eye out for the bit where he calls his missus, and the use of a greddy profec :(

Didn't watch the video (don't have 20 minutes atm!), but if you like modified exotics, Heffner's Performance is a tuning company that does twin turbo kits for Vipers, GT's, Gallardo's, etc. and their website have some videos of the cars in action. http://www.heffnersperformance.com/videos.htm

that car has been recently modified even further..the engine ahs been removed and completely built but non other than "Al Papitto". Im sure most of you guys prob never heard of him but he is the current record holder for modular engine 1/4 mile time in the mustang here in the US. best time was 9.37 at 155mph. no nitrous, no boost no nothing..just motor and its perfectly street legal. Al Papitto happens to be a friend of mine and a big authority on OHC head design . some of the work i have seen this guy do is really something..the GTTT now is running twin GT45R's...its now at SEMA in Vegas,once done there it on to the dyno to set some even crazier numbers..

Wow i mean just wow. Those things waste petrol as it is i wonder how much it wasted now lol.

Well, Clarkson got 4 mpg on Top Gear from the standard car, and I'd imagine this would use more again... Like 2 mpg

he loses once so now he has to upgrade rofl, best dude ever.

lol it's so fast and the furious.

Nice car though - high speed racer. I'm suprised he didn't run it again on the 1/4. .. and why you'd assume it's a street car if you nearly wiped it out at the 1/4 .. O_o

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
