(Insert homer simpson voice) sweet mercyless crap, What the hell have they done to my car......

Thumbs up for effort though, this is what hapans when people have more money then sence.

^^ haha classic

meanwhile, are we sure he's dropped all the running gear in? I mean it would be very difficult to get the 4wd and everything in, someone must have a got a banged up gallardo cheap and used it all up...

like that bentley...mmm who wouldn't swap all the bits for some W12 loving :)

linky here: http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/modul...hp?StockID=4778

All the people claiming fails have pretty much failed so hard themselves collectively, I fear a paradox and the future of SAU (not to mention the universe).

How on earth could ripping the shitty v8 donk out of a mustang and replacing it with a Gallardo engine be a bad thing? Im gonna be the first to say it - motherf**king WIN! Id line that mustang up at the lights (its dark and i cant see the funny looking ass end) and think "dun dun dun, another american muscle car bites the dust" and then BAM!.... Id have the sound of that V10 ringing in my ears 5 sundays from now.

If you lot prefer the 8 banger and boring standard interior... well id be checking myself for aids quicksmart.

+1 wtf are you saying ONETEN?

what are you smoking?

that thing is fcuking foul

here's the lambo that donated the parts to the stang:

http://www.rhcollectibles.com/showroom/130...llardo-SE?sold=

personally i reckon its awesome... cos everyone know what a sack full of doorknobs the mustang is with its 1960's live rear axle etc. about time someone modernised the stang's drivetrain and suspension.

I think that's great!

I only like the style of ONE lambo. can't even remember the model, but it was designed to look like an F22 :D

THIS is a lambo i'd buy. If they stopped doing the "oh look how itallian and inventive we are" styling and just made it LOOK LIKE A CAR!

Maybe i'm slightly bias, as I have a soft spot for ponies... but still. Mustang body = win. Lambo engine = win. Why the hell not combine them? :thumbsup:

Surely that conversion with the Lambo running gear and the donor Mustang would have cost close to the price of a second hand gallardo....
I can sort of imagine what motivated the engine conversion, but why the Lamborghini badging, rear bumper and interior? That's what I don't understand. :D

He might have picked up the Lambo gear for US$60,000 out of a wreck...and if he knows his stuff, probably did the conversion himself. Yeah the exterior bits are a bit weird. But I look at it in a street sleeper / teasing sort of sense; you wouldn't know it's got Lambo gear in it just by him blowing you away unless you were a die hard fan who knew the sounds of the engine/exhaust.

Not my thing personally but I can see what he was going for.

lol @ all the tards that think its a lambo with a mustang body style conversion. its a mustang that's been fitted with a lambo drivetrain and suspension. which is instant win in my books.

its like putting R35 GTR drivetrain, interior and suspension into an R33. Making something that's ghey with aids less ghey by putting in something that oozes heterosexuality and Chuck Norris-like awesomeness.

    • Jap premium will be 100 RON. You should use 98.
    • The exhaust gases are at their highest temperature as they leave the exhaust port and enter the manifold. They cool as they flow through the manifold because they transfer heat to the manifold and the manifold loses heat to the surrounding environment. Thus, inevitably, the exhaust gases are cooler as they enter the turbo compared to when they entered the exhaust manifold. So, yes, the exhaust manifold can easily get as hot as the turbine housing. Having said that, you will generally see the highest temperatures where the exhaust gases have to slow down or they are concentrated into one area - which is usually the collector on the manifold and in the turbine housing, because the gases slam into the metal at those places, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient and transferring even more heat to the metal than they might just flowing past elsewhere. Exhaust manifold heat shields are a good idea - certainly for the stock manifold they are there from the factory. People seldom have anything like that on a tubular manifold because they are hard to achieve. Some might wrap a tube manifold with fibreglass tape - but this has a reputation of leading to cracked welds. The best case is generally to put ceramic coating onto the manifold to prevent it getting as hot (internal coating) and radiating/convecting heat into the bay (external coating). All the real heat from a turbo comes from the exhaust side. The gases entering are at ~800-900°C and the steel/iron gets nearly that hot. The compressor side is only going to heat the charge air up to <<200°C (typically not much more than 100°C). So that's nothing, by comparison. The compressor is not a significant source of engine bay heat.
    • Late to the party, specifically joined this forum as I just bought one of these and this thread has been a gold mine of info. If the OP is still around, mind if I ask what gas you been putting in yours? Mine has a Japanese sticker in the cap saying premium but it seems to get way worse mileage on premium (95) than 91. I always thought it was meant to be the other way round🤷 I do think Nissans claimed "6l/100km" is a bit fantastical 😂
    • Does exhaust manifold get hot as turno exhuast side? I have a turbo cover to managr heat in the engine bay but  nothing is covering the exhaust manifold before turbo   i know as turbo does compress air, the temp does go up however does that mean exhaust manifold would be as hot?
    • It's excellent but I'm still breaking it in so I'm not 100% sure where it'll end up. I would say it's about 15% heavier than stock and the smoothness of the slip zone is quite progressive but you need to be a little patient compared to stock or it'll bite hard and stall. Stock I got away with absolutely horrid clutch control. Like I said before I couldn't even tell where the clutch would grab when it was stock so releasing way too quickly without enough revs it would just slip and the revs would drop lower than ideal but that would be the end of it. Currently there's a bit of a nasty clutch judder if I don't apply enough revs + find the exact wrong point of the slip point in the clutch pedal but it feels like it's slowly resolving as I drive it more. I would not recommend the competition clutch unless you really need the extra clamp force. I think this clutch combined with the Nismo operating cylinder is going to be exactly what I want. Enough bite that you need to remember the release point to avoid stalling or rough shifts, but progressive enough that it's not hard to drive by any means and not heavy at all. I tried a "super single" clutch on my friend's 997.2 Turbo 6MT and that was absolutely horrid. It runs an electrohydraulic power steering pump for the clutch power boost so there's zero feedback in the clutch pedal and there was a horrific clutch shudder well after break-in due to the lack of marcel springs or hub springs in the friction disk. It felt like the slip zone was the thickness of a single toe twitch as well so it was almost impossible to avoid stalling it unless you gave it a ton of revs and just dumped the clutch instead of trying to be smooth with it. I was terrified of pulling out in front of traffic. I have also tried some kind of "super single" on an EK9 and that makes this twin plate Coppermix look like a stock clutch. Releasing the clutch pedal even slightly too quickly feels like you're getting rear-ended. The pedal is extremely heavy as well and there's no vacuum assist like the GTR.
