Haltech Gt-r Engine Carnage!

[Beer Baron]

A little birdy tells me Haltech are no longer the only ones in Sydney to have popped a VR38

D'oh! they are dropping like flies! VR38.... the RB26 for the new generation...

[kessian]

You missed the point there champ.

A "forged motor" (ie. something with forged rods/pistons) doesn't inherrently make more power.

You don't get 1000hp from pistons and rods. You can make decent power by upgrading the support systems and pushing them to the limits on a motor that can handle it.

Somehow I think you're going to have to upgrade the turbos before you really find the limit of a stock VR38. Thus until Haltech do that, building a stronger motor is near-on pointless.

You know what i mean mate. If they are developing the car for modifications for the future, then a future logical step is turbo upgrades, and providing the extra security of a built engine to handle these power outputs isnt pointless.

'Forged' and 'built' eh, learn something new every day And heres me thinking that these motors already had forged cranks and rods. Plus were individually hand built in the factory.

OK, I'll lay off now
