It'd be more than that.... hell, $8000 would get me a new car (CA18DET 180sx...would do...), and every round after the first, would be a few horsepower more to that 180sx....

I know what i'd prefer to do.... Even if it is a porsche, it only lasts so long...and its a race car, worth over $400 000....with 250RWKW or something.... Ahh, screw it, it'd be my only chance to ever drive one....It'd be worth doing for any revhead.. If i had the money to do it, then hell yeah, i'd do it...but right now i'm on new car savings budget

I'd love to be driving it at Phillip Island...that would be awesome there....If ya do do it, let everyone now and try and get all the sydney guys on here to rock up and play pit crew....

It is "only" about $240,000... also 280kW@crank and 1200kg (wet) from relatively accurate memory.

i actually believe it was over 300kw at the crack, with a power to weight ration of

211kw/tonne.....either way, its a beast - and thats the street version

and i do believe its a supercup car, as in Jim Richards bought one, ready to race, and it costs AU$400,000... it is not a a street car, and has more horsepower (yes, they got free horsepower, and turned up the boost), ride is better, stiffer, comes with the super flashy light weight wheels.. well, you get the drift, its a REAL racecar....

You have got yourself a bit muddled up, I think you are talking about Jim Richards' Targa Tasmania 911 Turbo which was in Motor Magazine a while ago, that is just a hotted up road car.

The car in the ad is a Supercup car which has 287KW power, weighs 1150 kg and costs a touch under $250k from your friendly Porsche dealer.

For about $400k you could get a 911 GT3 RS which has 320 kW (435 BHP) at 8,250 rpm with 2 x 30.8 mm dia. restrictors

      I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".

      Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
