and Stolen from migweb.co.uk
thought it was pretty crazy
[QUOTE=Cupatea]Could be a contender!!! Copied from another site.... So dont moan if the facts arn't right (like a 1 tonne car, sodoff, my corsa weighs that, and that damn skyline engines is bigger than my car alone ha ha).... lmao
Some rich French guy bought his R34 GTR with the idea of going a little wild...
Basically he wanted a copy of the JGTC (Japanese Touring Cars) Skylines. However no-one sold the wide arch kit to non race teams..
So - he got it copied - in carbon fibre
No only that - he got all the drivetrain redesigned, completely redesigned the suspension & everything about the car. (rather than the barry method of some spacers lol )
The end result is below...
However - he didnt just stop there because he wanted the engine to be a bit special. So what he thought he would do is drop a V12 Quad turbo engine in it
Now it's actually 2 RB26 Skyline GTR engines welded together to create one big V12, rather than the Skyline straight 6...
Target of a reliable 1000bhp, target weight of 1000kgs. 1000bhp per tonne with a proper race car chassis, suspension & sequential gearbox...
Does it get any madder?
Thats one big f**k off engine & gearbox!
4 of these bad boys - makes a twin turbo look a bit crap! lol
& this started life as 2 seperate Skyline engines...
