the guy that started this thread now thinks everyone else is being stupid and wants the thread locked? This is so typical of a forum.

On another note. I had Jim tune my drift car last night and he once again provedwhat a guru he is. The guy has more talent than anyone here will ever know.

Fernando Weirhl drove the car and was shocked at how well it drove. its not jsut how much power you make but how you make it.

Jim once said something to me that i will always remember...

"I don't care where they take their cars, because i know they will eventually end up here."

It looked a bit underpowered to me but for all I know it had a stock turbo.

Does nobody like Rigoli/Vince Rigoli? Seems to be a fairly large shop that hasn't been mentioned?

Rigoli custom built my neighbours car which is a 69 Capri with a Cosworth turbo race motor, and has always been beyond happy with Vince's work. My neighbour calibrates hospital equipment for a living, has an unbelievable attention to detail, and is extremely picky, but has never had a bad word to say about Vince.

I used them a couple of times when i had the 33, and again not a single bad word about them. Not the cheapest around, but neither are alot of the others mentioned and as said you get what you pay for.

I'm actually considering going to Vince to turbo my V35, as i know he has turbo'd many NA cars before with great results.

Yeah I was unaware he tuned lines either!

But seems to be good!

Bobby - yes, turbo the V35 :cool:

If it stays with me, then there's a chance.

Looked into a HKS twin kit, which basically has all parts for around $6-$7k. Bolt in on, tune, and an instant safe 300rwkw!!!! :laugh:

From the cars I've seen come out of Rigoli I would call them forced induction experts rather than Skyline experts. A mate supercharged a corolla thorugh them with stunning results, and again my ex neighbours car is beyond comment.

This is the Capri. When he was next door, I used to get a hard on hearing this thing start up on a Sunday morning!

my drift car isnt underpowered, its over gripped!!! Its going back for full tune this Saturday and gets cams next Saturday

But which turbo, and don't you think you should put the cams in BEFORE the tune? I don't know heaps about SR's but I know what I like.

Bobby, you need to have a little chat with Jim at Dart and ask him about some of the wild things he can do with a VQ :)

You know you want a stroker :D

Nooo, leave me alone Nick, I'm trying to sell it not get more ideas :-)

I've seen a couple in the US, and they are crazy!!!

Being just a V35 though, it's a big investment and to do it will have to decide to keep the car, well, for ever!

haha, what is this the Nick and Nick show :)

Well it got me thinking and looked into it abit. The parts for a stroker kit (3.5l going to 4.2l) will set me back around $6000. That's for a full kit, all parts needed. Then you have to factor in machine shop work, plus the actual install.

I also found a stroked engine to 4.2l with HKS twin turbo for $15k plus delivery from the US.

Now if i win lotto, expect to see that on the car.

but, again leave me alone, I'm trying to sell it!!!!

I believe Jim's quote regarding the VQ stroker TT was 'easy 1000HP' :)

Just enough for an enjoyable daily driver.

*edited by admin* let it go paul. you are only going to end up banned again if you don't learn from your warnings

for goodness sake...i was only trying to help the fella...so he didn't cop it from you guys like i did...edited my post but left his there...go figure? and my post didn't mention anything slanderous or defamatory.

this is starting to get beyond a joke.

i think an explanation via pm would be helpful as the rules are very blurred if that post was at all out of line.
