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

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
