thats an all round great car, the smooth but chunky flaired arches without the vents and fussy lines youd normally see in such a kit, the wheels and the power to back it all up. :cool:

Proper animal of a car, yeah it's a 2JZ out of a MK4 Supra Twin Turbo.

I'll wait for the owner to reveal the specs but I'm sure this beast was running 600+ bhp

Looks like a mental car, What are the chances of it being at pod in september? I'd love to see this rip up the strip.

Hi everybody, thanks for all the positive comments. im still running the new engine in. we should hopefully see around 600- 700hp at the wheels then its dynoed. the only restriction i have is the turbo. (its a bit small to get more power than that) everything else is made for 1000hp + but i really see no need. and yes 2JZ-GTE. I had enough of blowing a head gasket a week on my 327ti :mad:

LOL, well spotted! i had it tied there while re-installing the cylinder head, it kept on getting in the way, (head studs so you gotta slide the head downwards)

No power figures as of yet, but i can safely assume its well over 300hp lol, once the new engine in fully run in, it will then be dynoed and well have a piece of paper which ill then post here and we can all investigate the situation further, LOL

Oh and if anybody wants an accurate speedo, let me know, i have a fully calibrated speedo adapter in mine, im not selling it but i reccomend it to everybody, as most of you know nearly every cars speedo is out, normally 5-10mph, i callibrated mine with the sat nav, now its bang on!

Thanks: well anything you can think of had to be custom made to fit. and i mean everything, from mounts to wiring, to moving brake cylinders, from power steering to diff, prop, gear stick placement, fueling, ecu, absolutely everything.

But this is what you get once all the hard work has paid off, well not really finished yet but very close :roll:

I hope my E30 gives inspiration to all the other E30 owners to not give up and what can be achieved with a bit of hard work and time.....and some more time..............and maybe some money and more time.......... LoL

First Dyno run un-mapped and the engine threw out a wopping 500hp

after it was mapped correctly, it was finished at 629.4 bhp on a "dyno dynamics" rolling road.

The turbo was only rated to 600 anyway.

I have a new Garrett GT 4094R now with new engine build.

This should be about the 850hp mark when back on the road this year...

Wow! That is some serious engine work. What car was the 3.0litre out of in the first place?

What's she like to drive or have you just gone for more brute power? lol. Is that running twin turbos?

Its been 10 months since your last post, has she been off the road much of the time?

Colour is spot on also.

Hes running that from a supra engine........Im glad its another one doing it for the team, its not only the scandinavians?? or americans that run e30s that are complete animals, but also the Brits aswell now :D

But as the greeks say "Me tov vou sou!"....basically be about your wits, as with power like that, its not difficult to go wrong
