Surpercharged v8 all the way you have full boost as soon as you take off not wait to hit a certain rev to start the boost process

Also with v8's they are becoming quite a common conversion in silvias skyline ect a ls1 is 50mm shorter in length than a nissan 6 not sure aboit toyota or ford they weigt of them is nearly iidentical and for that you get a extra 2 cylinders and bunch more tourqe aswell just imagine a supercharged v8 silvia it would be nuts but thats just my opiinion i think all the big banger 70's and 80's falcons,toranas and commodores shoild all be made agiain like they were back then and sold today they are real cars a big engine a manual gearbox and a steering wheel to steer it no conputers or fancy fuel iinjection
 
Just standard 5 speed driveline, after the engine work it dyno'd 228kw at all 4. I drove sensible most of the time but one thing broke after another.

that will do it - anything 200kw and over and its just a matter of time with a standard 5spd. 230kw atw would have been fun!
 
What type of bike you riding mate?

I'm currently on a Hyosung gt650r but get my full licence in a couple of months and will be getting a fire blade. The Hyosung isn't quite as quick as my Rex was but at least stuff doesnt break.

It was great fun, you get to the speed limit very quickly :)

'when' i blow my box im just gonna throw in straight cut modena gears.. i have a few mates pushing 250 and they have no problems with it... plus its another satisfying whine to go with all the sneazing lol. i dont thrash to much on the road so im not to worried and until i get my new turbo i should be fine.. you guys doing track days on your bikes?? bet it feels nice going 200kph on a bike... one day :)
 
The last box I broke before I sold it had helical cut 1st and 2nd but I stuffed the input shaft. I should have spent more money on the box when I first had the engine work done then I wouldn't have had so much trouble but funds were tight as the engine work was never planned, while driving the car home after I purchased it, it had a major engine failure.
 
Go for an 8. I own an 800 hp na xc falcon runs 9.6 @ 140mph if you would like to see it it's in the latest performance garage magazine it's qualified one of the fastest street cars in Australia called PRO 078.
