R33NT Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Guys are you aware that Nizpro is running the VK56DE in their race boats? I have a short video of a web site that shows a VK56DE with twin turbos given a serious belting. Pretty sure you can purchase it from Nizpro. If i could find someone to buy all my running gear (motor, gearbox, pfc, are ic, etc) I would get a VH45DE installed in my R33 aswell.

NA_R33 Posted September 6, 2006 Author Share Posted September 6, 2006 if its the same one i have seen it is of a VH45DE with twins strapped to the side of it.. I continually hear rumours of these super high power VH and VK engines floating about, but am still yet too find any hard evidence of them actually existing... Im basically learning everything from my own R n D, The only others i am aware of are all in the build process still and are not yet running. I may infact give nizpro a call today...
