Not sure how many people have seen this, but i thought its definately worth making a thread for;

Teaser:

-Majority of the systems and mechanics are directly from F1 :uh-huh:

-64 Valve 8.0L Quad Turbo W16 Engine with Electronic Constant variable valve timing, dry sump system borrowed from F1

-Produces 1000hp and has constant 4wd

-Seven gear, dual clutch system, sequential shifting and paddle control that shift gears in 0.2sec

and it looks fairly good too, i think we may have the worlds best car :burnout:

Its a supposed pasenger car (still concept) with a cost of over 1 Million USD! :Paranoid:

and thats just the beginning...

check it out :burnout:

also spun/crashed at two demonstration runs,

AND got pushed back a year from the original release date because it didnt pass VW's quality control tests. i would be a bit annoyed if i put down a deposit for one.

Annoyed? are you insane? Obviously 1000hp would be hard to control and harder to pass regulations

Go read about it properly and watch the videos, there isnt any car in the world ide rather have

especially watch the 4 turbo system video :D

it spun/hit the wall on high speed test roads(banked rings) and they admitted there was definetly a problem with the suspension setup...

regulations was not the problem, it was that the car didnt pass the parent company's OWN regulations..

of course i would be annoyed, its not that its taking ages, its that its taking ages PAST the date they said it would be released! ie. they stuffed up!

its looking like one of those supercars that ends up being a flop...

edit: (although dont get me wrong i wouldnt mind one if it worked properly!!!)

i personlly prefer pagani zonda, porsche carrera gt or an ferrari enzo..

the bugatti is too focused on top speed runs the others are drivers cars also capable of good top speed...

did u know that if you are gonna try and hit top speed in the veyron bugatti will send u a new set of tyres just for that? it puts so much stress on tyres that it is dangerous to use anything less than new tyres if attempting to hit the claimed top speed..

so your faulting a car thats still in concept stage? :D

bugatti has done something completely original here, and with new technologies and designs comes many problems to overcome, thats how a great car is made

lets talk about the engine, body, transmission, price, speed, power... not that its suspension still needs development (hence its still concept) or its release date has been moved because none of us have the funds to buy one anyway :D

its not in concept stage! its meant to be on the roads now! the 'great car' was meant to be made already!!!!!

and its not the first time that most of the stuff on that car has been done...

i give up...

fine the 4 turbos is sort of interesting..

does that mean 4 blow of valves? lol. "ive got 4 bov's bro"

although wats with the guy in the video calling them turbo-superchargers LOL and about how they stop the 'DREADED TURBO HOLE" LOL!

i think it must be a direct translation or something....

well it certainly is still in concept, and its most definately not a new thing for cars not to make their expected and stated release dates

its the first time all the stuff on that car has been put together as one package, who else has a W16 not V16, 64 valve 8.0L quad turbo 7gear 1000hp pasenger car almost ready for release?

i doubt it would have 4 bov. most probably 1 for each 2 turbos, but there isnt any info on it

hate on it all you want siks as you obviously dont like it, but i say props to bugatti for being so creatively crazy because thats how most of todays technology has been achieved.

how anyone can not like this car is beyond me :confused:

back to drooling :D

I guess because the rest of the world has known about this car for a few years at least and it never seems to get any closer to release. I watched those videos you're talking about a year ago and was impressed but nowdays it's more like vapor-car. They keep promising and never deliver.

see knore! its not just me :D

and it is NOT A CONCEPT!!!!!!!!

concept cars are are those created more to judge whether to build the car or just to show off the skills of the company, this car is wayyyyyy past that its a production car that hasnt made it!

im surprised u havnt heard more about it!

ok well i was trying to start an optimistic discussion about an insanely technologically advanced car, obviously that didnt work

and it IS still a concept mate, goto the bugatti website and have a read :D

either way, thanks for ruining the thread, i didnt realise it has been around for ages, i simply thought it was insane and wanted to talk about it

have a nice day

I welcome this thread to last year.

Bugatti can't make it work. I heard they have trashed plenty of engines and driveline componets and can't make it reliable enough to provide any kind of warranty. It's ugly as sin too. It's not going to be sold EVER.

The Chiron is the one to watch concept car wise in their line up.

yay! finally some optimism

yeh i think its intended purpose is to actually be the fastest production car available hence taking the mclaren f1 to school.

theyve still got work to do by the look of it, but the hardest bits are out of the way already :D

If it makes 1001hp on standard boost, wonder what it'l make with some higher boost, or possibly replace the 4 turbos with 2 big singles :drooling: :drooling:

I can only imagine what 1000hp+ and 4wd would feel like, im assuming it would make the car strafe at full power on most turns!

I wonder what this would run the quarter in? It certainly has the power, grip and transmission. No info on weight yet.

whoever said the mclaren has been out for this long and does it with natural aspiration.. obviously they have an advantage because the mclaren f1 was designed many many years before, and go read about the problems they had with it during testing.

Anyone who complains about this taking too long etc obviously doesnt understand what it takes to make the worlds fastest car. Bugatti obviously is still no happy with it, which is a good thing, because they want it to be perfect before it has a chance to show its muscle to the world.

Well i actually searched for bugattie and veyron and didnt find a single thread so i thought it was atleast new enough for people to see that hadnt seen it already, so welcome to now everyone else :D

And how are you so confident it will 'NEVER' be sold ever, thats a pretty big statement unless you work for bugatti. Obviously engine tuning and reliability are the hardest issues to overcome with over 1000hp standard, have u read how much money and time went into the mclaren f1 engine? and how many times they couldnt get everything to work properly?

No company would put this much work into a car then just scrap it. Ugly as sin? In your eyes maybe, doesnt look so bad to me.

Yeh interior is pretty lame, but i wouldnt be looking at the interior with 1000hp and 4wd :drooling:

I spose at the end of the day you could build a 1000hp R34 GTR for a quarter of the price, and ide rather the GTR, but this car deserves some discussion

take a chill pill knore

Interesting thread though. Thanks for the info.

No worries, i just didnt want people coming saying one sentence bad things about it

if the thread was, wats the faults with bugatti etc then ide be fine, but i wanted a positive thread

anyways, where did you get 8.8sec from? cos thats nuts!

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
