Has anyone done this yet lol???

That's gotta be the single dumbest thing I've ever heard of.

No one will ever do that because people with the kind of money required are 100% retarded.

yeah that was pretty silly..

So how about a 7.0 litre turbo diesel v8 instead...

A much better idea.

Imagine the torque of a 7L v8 turbo diesel. 1000nm+

300kmph at 2500rpm...lol

I remember reading a story on a twin turbo diesel v8 in a Camaro or something a while back..

The guy who owned it said it does LAZY 10 sec quarters

And diesels sound awesome with a bit of work and a big exhaust.

I need this weeks Powerball to do it. But it can and has been done. Z-Cars in the UK took a Cerbera and put GTR running gear in it. I would do it to a Sagaris, with RB28 and some punchy little twins for 450awkws :)

The other car I would kill to build up...

Take one late model Exige and combine

With

And a few parts from the Lotus Motorsports parts bin to create

Full space frame and AWD from a GTR. Should handle fine. Also, TVRs handle just fine, well the Griffiths, T350, Speed 6, Cerbera etc all do (late model stuff) Its just that hacks cant get their heads around driving 400hp rwd cars that weight 1000kgs ( i include myself in the Hack Dept :) )

I have often thought about a mid engined V8 Mazda MX-6 :)

This, Twin Turbo Lotus V8,

Plus, this

They are a good looking car, and even havea reasonable V6 as standard which you could throw in the back with a few turbos :)

I do have in mind the ultimate engine transplant for my lil R32, but I wont make a peep as its actually no more expensive then a rebuilt RB26 with some good fruit....and one day I may actually do it :)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
