Corvette sounds like a truck lol

 

There is actually nothing like a revving Lamborghini Diablo or a Group B Audi S1 quattro screaming down the racetrack.....
Wicked sound from those 5 cylinder engines.... And luckily we Norwegians can hear one at the trackdays all summer every year.... for the past three years...

 

BTTT for daytime lot

 

 

Ford F150 SVT Lightning for me, with the aftermarket side exit pipe.. Nothing like it!!!!

Chris

 

my bros old xr4x4 with a scorpion exhaust was nice

 

Adam - top man - that's the vid clip!

That Ferrari sounds .............. indescribeable

ACL bearings - cool - just put them in mine

 

whered that bit of randomness come from?

 

any thing old skool with twin 40/45's 3 litre capri's, porsche turbo all of them

 

Yep, the Ford Pinto engine in 8 or 16v guise on 45s or above sounds rude, but I don't mind the noise this makes on full chat (not biased or anything...)

Steve have you heard this, sounds fookin lush!

 

Heard what?

Being on 56k i wont hear it till the morning, but il download it when i go to bed!

Il be hearing a lot more of what big boost RB30DETs like in them vids i posted, well whenever i finish putting my car together anyhow

 

RB30 huh thats one bit of your car i've just learnt about
Didn't fancy stroking it (excuse the pun)

 

I dont like going for bigger capacity in general, but theres a reason (which im not going into yet) this time...

Id never bother with 2.7/2.8 RB26 stroker kits tho, pointless and mega expensive IMO.
And dont get me started on OS Gicken 3litre conversions! fook that mess...

 

Whats wrong with OSGiken Steve

 

A two stroke engine what a horrible noise should be banned specially those bloody noisey scooters

 

Deano- The 3litre conversions?

Bloody spacer plate added to make the block taller for a start!!!
Cyl liners isnt exactly ideal either! (Reminds me of IMA )

RB26 blocks are mega strong, but once you adding spacers and liners thats a bit out the window!

And MEGA money.

Fook that! Even in Japan they using RB30 blocks now on GTRs, the OSG conversion seems a waste to me.

 

Well I find that odd , Rod built the very first OSGiken RB30 in the uk when he worked at Middlehursts and the car is still going strong has done over 80K and even took part in TOTB 1

Not only that this pic below certainly doesnt say WEAK to me

I asked Rod about this engine set up ( below ) and he said it was pure DRAG only

 

Those Skybus engines are hardly production and still dont rival the Ferrari's sound.

 

Well thats piss funny

" Guess what lads , I got beat today by some sort of skyline Its Ok though at least my engine sounds better "

Well thats ok then

 

Running liners and a spacer plate isnt my idea of class, and esp when paying the crazy amount it costs.

Might be drag only, but never seen a really special time out of a OSG RB30, extra capacity in drags not really worthwhile anyhow unless cost is an issue, esp when RBs can rev to 12k+, more than enough to keep then Turbos in the powerband

 

Thought this was about engine NOISE, not speed

 

You are of course correct ..................................................

But the above still stands

 

Im sorry EIL but you might love that ferrari scream, but the RB30s in the vids i posted sound way way better to ME.

But i like biiiiiiiiiiiig boost roar and the sound of straight 6, ive listened side by side and bollocks to the ferrari

 

I tell you what sounds good though

That Porsche Carrera GT that was on Top Gear

 

Just sounds like a huge turbo to me. Great if that's your bag, but the Ferrari, Lambos, etc sound incredible even at low rpm. There was a lowley 348 in the petrol station the other day, the bark of it just pulling away was amazing

 

tbh i think the spacer plates are a bodge-it way too, along with the decompression plates for the zvh.

 

The trouble with the 355s is that they sound like screaming little bitches and not like a neanderthal Roar like normal V8s .............. fook would I want that racket just a couple of feet from my ears

 

WWW.ER-BOTHERED.CO.UK

 

To true, they sound shit

 

coont
what is max capacity availalble from the RB std size block?

 

well at least they sound better than a rrari

 

The cost tho, find out the cost...

 

I think its 3.1 litres

 

3.1 litres i mean without the spazzo spacer plate.lol
