the 4.8 is one large mofo engine. at least 100/150 mil taller than an rb. A fair bit longer and massively heavier.

If you have the car to handle the physical dimensions you can build a torque monster capable of moving the earth on it's axis.

Brian crower makes a stroker kit specifically for this engine simply because there is a fairly large demand in the oil rich sand dunes, more money than sense I guess.

It drinks like a fish in standard guise. I crapped myself after the first couple of tank fulls of fuel, Over 20 litres per 100 kilometres. A set of headers, decent exhaust and an after market ecu with a good dyno tune improved it out of sight. As low as 16/100 driven sensibly and nothing phases it. Tow or carry whatever you will it just laughs at it.

AT 2 and 1/2 tonne it still manges a 16 second 1/4 mile too. :P

More importantly, where are the vids of your car?? :P

I took the video camera for the dyno tune but forgot all about it till we had finished and unstrapped the car. LOL

Need better quality tyres for the next tune and we only reached 24psi and turned the tyres to smoke (brand new 245 17s) Would have been nice to see 500rwkw but will have to settle with 475 for now without the nos.

+1, suprised more people havnt explored them...

ive seen a 1000hp AWD drag supra with a TB42 and 4wd running gear...

I seen it in the Supra forums. I think it was all done up in Russia.

I guess it goes to show that with enough $$$ anything is possible :blush:

Some Patrols here in Aus. are running RB26/30 combos - apparently it all bolts straight up.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
