Thats a Saleen S7R GT.

I knew it for sure at first glance but checked just to be sure.

Much the same as this one really... The gills are always a dead giveaway.

The S7R is wicked.

haha ok it wins. what car is that? love the look of the gt cars

as adam said its the Saleen S7R, a friend of mine has just stepped up to one of these from a 911 in the FIA GT series and he said it is one of the fastest cars he has ever driven. Qualified 2nd at silverstone so he's no slough when it comes to driving either

GT's are pretty well all i watch / sponsor at the moment, I have lost nearly all interest in F1's, V8's. If you want to see some good door handle to door handle racing watch the British GT races from this year. No penalties for contact, good old fashion racing with different cars with different strengths and weaknesses

Good old Mark Webber! Happened twice to the poor bastard, once in qualifying and then that one was during warm up. :D

Yowzers... bye bye CSL!

Whiplash: I agree mate, the BTCC is great to watch, very exciting, close racing.

I've been watching the British GT which is the Vipers, Ferrari's, Aston Martins, Gallardo's, 911's ect instaed of the little 2L tourers. they throw the 1/2 million $ cars around just as much as the BTCC cars

here 1 soon to be ex ginetta G50 (post 12 shows whats about to happen)

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
