Super User South FLA Posted January 29, 2014 Super User Posted January 29, 2014 Was surfing and came across these cool articles http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1089925_hennessey-puts-its-twin-turbo-hpe700-corvette-stingray-on-the-dyno-video http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2014/01/27/nissan-reveals-400-hp-three-cylinder-engine-for-lemans-racer/?intcmp=features I really like the Hennessey Upgrades, but its almost $70K with the upgrade options http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1085565_hennessey-reveals-upgrades-for-2014-chevy-corvette-stingray As far as Nissan powerplant, could you imagine that little engine a Z series car, power to weight would be sick compared to the standard 3.6L six they currently use.

Super User A-Jay Posted January 29, 2014 Super User Posted January 29, 2014 That Wild. Here a clip of it doing 200mph on a toll road in Texas. A-Jay http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1089178_hennessey-hpe600-corvette-rips-down-texas-toll-road-at-200-mph-video Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted January 29, 2014 Super User Posted January 29, 2014 You want a crazy factory ride with tons of HP and street legal you need a Cadiallac CTS-V tuned up. My buddy has one with pushing 1000hp. 4 door, all leather, power everything, BAD ASS! Check out this http://dynospeedracing.com/wordpress/specialties/cts-v/ My buddy's is stage 4 - car plus about $25k. Runs low 10's at the track. This is the video on the dyno before they redid the heads, allowing 16lbs of boost: 685rwhp/635 trq translates into 830HP at that point. Here is a youtube clip of another built by same shop here in memphis 1 Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted January 29, 2014 Super User Posted January 29, 2014 Put that Nissan engine in any old Datsun an it would be sick. Imagine that in a 510 or like you said any of the older Z models I personally like the 260z myself a little more rare then the 280 and 240. Quote

Super User 00 mod Posted January 29, 2014 Super User Posted January 29, 2014 Lynn Loves that car - she wants me to trade in my GTO for it. A-Jay Don't know if I blame her. Stock with 554hp and a 1/4 mile time of 12.0 seconds. It is down right quick right out of the box. And ALL of the creature comforts you could imagine! Jeff 1 Quote
