No more info provided? I want to know quarter mile times and 0 to 60s taht wide bodykit does look nice. Even if the bodykit wasnt for sale, he sure has the money to make it happen.

and i feel sorry for whoever has to work on this cars ECU...
anyone know gearbox info, is it a holinger gearbox?

Imagine if he DID tune each RB26... asked JUN to do it or something... he would effectively have 2200 bhp!

exacley! and he could have a half reliable car aswell.
imagine the fuel the 2 rb26's go through, and wtf getting an rb26 upto 500bhp is no great acheivment.
he goes to all the trouble of making it light weight with alot of carbon ect. only to weigh it down with another engine, another exhaust system, 2 more turbo's.. uhhh *bangs head against desk*
sry but i think this guy needs a slap around the head, he has more money then sence.... (pardon the pun)

the car is indeed an awesome copy of the JGTC but i agree with beav,more money than sense,he could have saved even more weight and got the same hp from 1 engne,lol

Actually I think the key word should be "realiable" I suppose a 1000 hp 2x RB26 is more reliable than a single engine tuned to its extreme

you recall the skyline jeremy clarkson drove with over 1000bhp, on the R33 GTR and commented on how it went for 3 years without breaking down once. rb26's are strong engines!
but im curious why he seeks a "reliable car" when it seems to be a track weapon.. mmm if anyone can provide more information on this car it would be highley apreciated.

Sure sure, and I never really heard anything bad about the 1000+ ones.. they seem to always run perfectly but still, better be safe than sorry
or maybe this is just stage one for him and he will soon tune the V12 to pass the 2000 or to aim at the 3000 hp
