peace kitty :bandit:

Have fun with my friend, and his custom Twin Turbo Lingenfelter LS1 C5. 22 lbs of boost, 900 RWHP. 700 FT LBS. 335/30/18s on the back. Two words.

Traction control.

It's a very scary car, I know my limits and I won't touch it.

Now what's that about? You think i won't admire a 820 Hp S15? Damn it's hard to think of a better car... I was just playin around , you know , seeing cars that have more than 400 hp is really rare , but ones that have twice as much- you see barely none... I'd love to see that , but how NSX is gonna do it? Would you really use the SR20DET for this kind of power? You could swap the RB26DETT into the rwd silvia and have those 800 hp easier...

theres 2 pros and cons of using each engine.

i could imagine a 800hp 4cyinder engine would be very ruff and un-refined because its being pushed to its limits.

but putting a 6cylinder engine in a silvia would upset the weight balance of the car, the s15 and 180sx are known to have great balance and thats why there argubly the best cars to drift with.

as for why i dont want a 6 or 8 cylinder car, is cause its not in my price range or it doesnt apeal to me, if i wanted a 6 cylinder car, i would probly get a skyline wich i cant afford at the moment and there too big, i dont like big cars, they feel too bulky and they usually sacrifice style, and handling, also theres alot more 4cyl cars to choose from than 6s and 8s.

here is a 8second s14,and yea its engine is stable
http://www.junauto.co.jp/democar/dra.../index.html?en

in hard tuned imports 2 afew supras had there engines replaced with 4cylinders, and these where really done up supras, one was a professional racing one that was up against skylines and other supras on a race track(i think the engine was for weight reasons, cause the car was fully weight reducted), the other supra was a street car with metalic paint, clear coat, mesh and other stuff, it was like the ones you would see at a car show, and the engine was worked including a respray of the engine bay and chrome, this was probly one of the best looking supras i had seen.

The Supras that Toyota sent to Lemans had 4 cylinders. They only made 600+ hp.

I see a lot of HP figures, but that's only half your powerband. What about torque? A 2 liter engine making 500 hp is not going to make half as much torque as a 6 liter engine making 700hp.

I'd rather go with the 3.0L Porsche 968 motor, making 500hp, and 450 ft lbs.

I think also that a 968 is a better car to drift in, because the suspension is a bit better. That's just my opinion though
