Engine~ V8 5.0L boat anchor, 400hp@4500rpm@the air con compressor.

Gearbox~ 6 speed manual or optional automatic.

Drive~ Rear wheel drive through blingtastic 20"s

Body~ 5000lbs with every gizmo, gimmick, cup holder, tv screen and cruise control.

Price~ $USD. Whatever the Seppos are prepared to pay for it.

Blame it on the fast and furious.

but seriously, 350kw 3.7L V6 twin turbo, seven speed sequential(like a five bladed razor), acres of aluminium and about $100000 oz dollars worth of carbon.

Will it have four engines because there is 4 wheels ( One motor for each wheel?). But then there would be 4 diffs, gear boxes  as well wouldnt it? 

I wouldnt bother with it in that case because it will be to heavy. however I like the four exausts it will obviously be a v17! hahah

There wouldn't be 4 differentials. Differentials split drive from one source to two places eg. from left to right, from front to rear. If there is 4 motors, one per wheel, then it would have zero differentials for the electric motors because the drive doesn't need to be divided.

With a good 15000+ rpm from electric motors with maximum torque at zero rpm, i would say if they have in wheel hybrid motors then they would only have the one ratio, hence no need for four gearboxes. Many purely electric cars only have the one gear, and most hybrids have CVTs, so I guess that gives it infinite gears. No one is putting conventional gearboxes with electric motors into production as far as I know.

With all that in mind, the weight penalty of having in wheel electric motors wouldn't be as bad as you perhaps first thought. But I don't beleive that it will have four electric motors. If it does get an electric boost from in wheel motors, it will only be for the front wheels IMO.

Im guessing between 3.2-3.5L V6 similar to 350z engine with a slightly higher redline, something like 7500-8000rpm, heaps of torque and somewhere around 350kw at the engine on about 10-12psi

7 speed manual or auto, 1550-1650kg and reworked E-4wd

depending how efficient the production is, somewhere around 80-110K

will destroy all competition anywhere near its price :D And will bring prices of 34GTRs into reach :unsure:

go godzillason!

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
