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

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult

      Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust?

      Rb25det vs Rb25de rods and crank are same?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.

      Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
