Yeah but the veyron is an 8 Litre 16 cylinder engine. Not a 2.5 Litre 6.

Nytsky's engine is producing 91kW per cylinder, while the veyron is only pushing out 46kW per cylinder.

Thats a lot less strain on each cylinder. Also the veyron engine is built to the most ridiculous of tolerances in a humidity and temperature controlled room that is 100% dust free.

So your not really comparing apples with apples.

Nytsky, very awesome effort! However, what in the hell are you going to do with 546kW in a RWD car? lol

To correct you its more like 100kw per cylinder.

And the car is built for nothing else than to put a smile on my face every time I get into it.

If you look at extreme setups such as a drag car which is running thousands of HP, they need to be pulled down after each 5sec run, my mates dad has a 5sec drag car and he tells me the stories which is just mind boggling so u need to be rich with sponsorships.

Yeah I've heard it from a few guys actually but wasn't sure how true it was as to me, pulling it down every 5000km would be painful. 20000km on the other hand wouldn't be sooo bad for car which isn't a daily driver.

I was interested in buying Envy motorsports 'the jetters edge' r34gtr a while ago and he killed the sale when he told me it had its routine 5000km rebuild.

prolly a good thing you didnt man..... i would touch anything that they had touched after what happened to my best mate..... it would have been a 5k rebuilt not caz of the power!!! anyway his car is running sweet now after JEM fixed it :)

Hear, hear. I wouldn't go anywhere near them.

:cheers:

Car sounds nuts. Love it.

just flicked though this thread 76 pages of cash burning power

if it were my car i would have burnt it years ago

pants of for persisting

enjoy the power skidz.... untill the next rebuild

buy 2015 this thing will have a 4 litre stroker and a gt7564 turbo

Top work Dave, good result from relatively low boost. Much fun to be had for a long time there.

HD video from this weekends escapades is mandatory I believe!!! :thumbsup:

Oh and good to see the usual suspects posting up absolute tripe, always makes for a laugh.

I have a GoPro that I haven't used yet, might give that a go.

Car is finally home after what feels like 2 years (not far off it).

Its bullshit to drive, the sound of the turbo is a good distraction from the lag lol.

Took a few people for a spin and we all giggled like school kids after the gates open, seriously sounds like war is happening under the bonnet :)

Much WIN!

    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
    • That could easily make a horrible noise. +1 to the benefits of: a) Disclosing all relevant information when asking questions such as these, b) Actually going out and having a look at your own car, seeing as you're the one there, and we're not!
