Hi everyone,

Thank you for your comments.

Here are a few pictures of the (unfinished) engine.

The chassis is a highly modified R34 chassis.

I don't own any drag track in France as there is no drag track in France at all.

For more informations, please e-mail me at :

Hmmmm FastFours or Hot4s or whatever it was might have got it wrong then, because im pretty sure they said a guy owned it who owned the only drag strip in france.

Very nice car anyways, how long has it been in development, what's the Hp & Time goals?

what is the engine sourced from? and also is the car made of a tube chassis (so in other words its liek the proper drag cars) or based on the R34 chassis?

also france seems to have a few drag strips... http://www.francedrag.com... sif you'd believe anything a fourbanger mag tells ya :cheers:

I'll add them to my growing list of innacurate "near enough is good enough... they'll still buy the mag!" tell-a-few-porkies-for-more-sales crap Aussie enthusaist mags.

Just say it Rezz, just say you hate Australia, Just burn everything about it & prove why Japan is so much better, do it man, let it all out, we all know you hate Australia! Lol. j/k m8 with the half truth behind it

Hi everyone,

A few more informations :

The engine comes from a Mercedes Benz 600. It is an all aluminium 48 valves quad cam V12. It has a variable timing on the intake.

It's weight is very close to weight of the RB26 (cast iron block).

It has a Brabus crankshaft which brings the capacity to 6.9 litre

The car is built using a stock R34 shell. Around 50 meters of chromoly tubing has been welded inside. The suspensions mounts are relocated and double wishbone suspensions are used front and rear.

The tyres are 345/40 - 18 front and rear on BBS magnesium wheels.

The engine is located in central front position to make room for the front transmission.

The gearbox is a OS Giken 6 speed sequential.

The car is built like a road race car, not a drag racing car.

About the french dragstrip, unless one has been built last week, there is not a single one in this country. In any case, I don't own it.

There are a few races in France but they are organized on the straight of road race tracks or airfields.

Best regards

Luc-Michel FAICHAUD

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
