Saw it at the nopi race at bristol. One word, unimpressive. It's kinda hacked in there, small charger, and doesn't run very good considering.

I just noticed they're using what looks like a Supra side mount Maybe they ran out of money?

 

I've always wondered about this car and I have not heard much about it. What kind of times is this thing pulling?

 

good lord that is ******* badass

 

11.60 at 120 if you look on the first site the shocker put in his post there is a movie

 

I think the 11.6@120 was without the turbo set-up

 

i hope that thing is rwd.

 

I think it is, I think I see axles, and the engine is rear-mounted...

That looks like aluminum pipe going to the turbine side of the turbo. I've never seen that before. Thats gotta lose some heat thru there. Blah maybe its just jethot coated.

 

wtf..confusing .lol
and whats with the no sound on the video
who cares if it loads a tiny bit faster

 

Why would he have a braided line running into the filter for the compresser inlet? Ah well, it's still very impressive even though it looks like they had to start budgeting big time on some parts.

 

um... juice?

looks interesting

 

I agree about the intercooler. THey should use a liquid-to-air intercooler

 

i talked to the guy at bristol and he said he only had 7500 in the whole car.

 

That thing is awesome. Love the exhaust

 

thats awsome, a 11 second stunna for under 8k

 

some answers for some people.

1.) the pipes connected to the turbine side of the turbocharger are ceramic coated... (obviously) aluminum is not able to withstand the heat.

2.) The pipe going to the filter on the turbocharger goes to the Valve cover, this is their solution for Crankcase ventillation. Personally i would have gone for an exhaust driven setup, but that is me.

3.) Stock supra sidemount intercoolers have been proven making over 500 HP if they have proper airflow, but in this guys case, a w/a IC would be optimal, but it looks like this project is on a smaller budget it probably isn't completely necessary...

4.) Of course it's hacked in there, that engine isn't made to fit in the back of a CRX. Im sure given some more time, they'll work out the bugs, the NSX motor has the potential to put that car into the 6's providing everything is set up for it.

You're saying this thing will run 6 second 1/4 mile times? hum....I don't know, i find that hard to believe.

 

im saying that the base NSX motor is capable of pushing it that far if it is done right.. because that motor has pushed another vehicle that fast.

 

Any more news about this car?

 

I highly doubt that thing will get into the 6's very easily.

Well, I remember the thread a year and a half back linking to their website's forum where they didn't even know how to compression test a vehicle...

 

crazy factor
