What sucks is that there is almost no factory teams in Le Mans any more. Thats why those Audis have won 1-2-3 for like the last 3 years in a row. Toyota, Nissan, BMW, Jaguar, Ferrari and everyone else has stopped making Le Mans cars for a while. Nissan could easily put a factory effort behind a GTS class 350Z or something along those lines. God knows they've got the money, those damn new Altimas/Maximas are ****ing everywhere I look. That and the rape they are commiting with their new line of heavy trucks. Anyway, the 390s were sick ****ing rides.

Its not too hard or expensive to make your own look alike. For the S13 (89-94) just find an imported body panel set and slap it on a S13 coupe. SR engine is extra. For the S14 you just have to source the correct head lights and badges if I remember correctly.

Here's one that has 3 pages on the infiniti V8.
Thats what I'm doing with my VH45DE. Ed Pink Racing Engines is the guy that builds the Infiniti A35 engines and I've been talking to him and he's been helping me in getting my VH set up. Should be able to get around 900HP NA and if I deside to go the TT route or Nitrous or both who nows how much. I'm using the VK45 heads with Web cams and special Valve springs. The pistons are 9.5:1, and total ARP. The injectors are 1000cc jobies. Big flow mothers.

I got a project that also includes getting a Z32 to 300mph.

Only thing is mine is dead stock.

But my plan includes a C130 and about 15,000 feet of air under it.

The problem with that is it will only free fall at 'bout 120 MPH. I flew a car once. They fly great, it's the landing that sucks.

Yeah, wind resistance and gravity and what not.

Thats why we got sparklers, jello and solid state rocket boosters.

No what I need to build is one of these with a VK45DETT



These guys are going quicker than me with a 350Z and a 3.5L V6
