the gto
the evo

the new stang

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

For somereason that just dosn't look like it quite fits the bill.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

im gonna get a festiva and put one of those in the back and convert it to rwd ;D

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

you can do that with the v8, but that straight 6 might be too long if mounted sideways.

1000hp straight 6?
supras and skylines have done that for awhile. one that comes to mind is the 1,360hp veilside skyline. 215mph and street driven.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Yeah arn't there skylines out there that are putting out over 1600 hp or something rediculous like that.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Also arn't they substantualy smaller then a 4.0?

this thing looks like 2 ZC's attached! that ---- is bad ass.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

1.5L, 1600hp

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

that ---- is crazy from a 1.5l too...i hope RS sees this.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

That was from the golden age of F1 before they limited the motors to 60 pounds of boost. :-\

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

I want one!!! :D That thing is so friggin schweet

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

ya but the motor's are shot after one race (designed that way).

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

why thats kinda dumb

seems like they would spend all the prize money on a new engine :D

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Those golden age F1 engines have a higher specific power output than a top fuel dragster, yet they last a thousand times longer.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

hmm.. i wonder if hasport has a mount kit for my coupe? ;)

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Yeah but do you know how stressful one race is?? It probably equals about 1,000,000 normal miles

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Which sounds impressive, until you realize that a top fuel dragster engine life is less than a minute, hahaha

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

how much boost is the skyline running, 30+?, does the skyline have a great torque curve? does the skyline run on 98 octane? does the skyline maintain its drivability?

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

seen it before, lots of american companies make engines very similiar. what does it rev to 16k?

16k rpms + massive boost = lots of power. even from a small engine, not that hard to understand.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Look at the file name...That things from 1987

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

well, anyone wanna do a custom fab job ? :P

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Its only a V6 too.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

ONLY, yah it'd make more power if it was v16 @ 1.5l

::)

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

rs you crack me up, no matter how amazing something may be, if its an import you will bash it and say domestics are better.

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

this doesn't look like a bash to me ??? If it is meant to be, Random you have gotten shitter in your bashing :P

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

Still quite impressive to me. and I still want one :-*

Re:1000 hp 4.0 for production engine??
 

i didnt bash it, you guys are really have such ricerish attitudes.

i was responding to ths

Those old F1 engines didn't rev as high as the modern ones, they just didn't have to with their 70psi+ boost.
The modern ones just don't impress me, they only make about 900hp at max, they are 3000cc and they rev higher than damn.
High revving is generally much more stressful on an engine than boost.
