Last time i was at WSID there was this sleeper copper orange v8 ss vx, looked totally stock from the outside

then looking under the bonnet....

GT3540!!!.. he said engine has been worked with forgies 5.7L gen3 running 10-11's can't remember but he said he was kiling the diff or drive shafts all the time

I GUESS HE SAW THE LIGHT! V8 + TURBO

They certainly are a defensive lot aren't they

[Munkyb0y]

lolz .... ahhhh good laugh.

why they talking turbos on a v8, when a supercharger is the obvious choice for large displacement anyway?

Not anymore...

The GEN-TT kits are killing most supercharger kits horsepower figures.

They only cost 9 grand as well, so they're pretty cheap in terms of kw gained.

Superchargers were king about 2 years ago, alot has changed in R&D for turbos on V8's since then though.

Alot of VX SS' are running around with the GEN-TT kits now, with not much else done and they're running mid to low 11's

I have run and beaten several eights with my near stock GT-R. it felt great.

the problem is that people are bagging skylines, they are confusing GTS-Ts(which are still great vehicles BTW!!!) with GT-R's.

i haven't met anyone that has driven a GT-R that wasn't absolutely astounded by its overall ability as a performance car.

exactly. just because the engine may have come from a corvette, doesn't mean the rest of the car is at the same level of performance.

[ix9]

what a wasted read

[gel]

Some of the posts stated on LS1 forum members said things like "Take it on the circuit and see whose car is faster..".

Even better! I say i'd like to see those heavy V8 over steering buckets go round a corner...!
