I would imagine that's a low 9s car isn't it ? I'm sure jurgen was in the 8s last time I was reading about it crazy fast

My gtr is tame compared to those guys, but touch wood mine has been super reliable at 850 - 950 hp

I've always just done rwyb so will just do that again I guess, if I can't beat 11.9 @ 134 mph il have to let someone else have a go on it lmfao

Lol I'll have a go, not sure on exact time mate he broke that day scarey money car I do want a gtr at some point was a toss up build the focus or buy one had to finish what I started, i wouldn't mess about with one to much when I do get one, gundams been put away as he's gone into time attack now with a well known r32 another good day out time attack

At 1400 hp it's gonna be highly strung, if it's a 4 litre it's 350 hp per litre
highest I've had was an rb27 at 262 hp per litre, the saph at just 700 hp comes in at 318 hp per litre so by far the highest tuned engine I have ever had, super excited I am

Can't wait for you to get it tbh

Been having another read about through rods posts and the exhaust manifold is made of inconel at a cost of Ł3k

At least you know Rod had the sense to do it right first time. I bet there is more high cost parts bills in the pile.

Can I have the part number for that rattler?

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

I don't have a part number, I think it was made by vibration free

I want to be sure the car is 100% first though so I'm starting with it with no issues

I'm looking forward to experiencing 700 hp in a saph for the first time

ajamesc

Think I’m waiting on the same studs but definitely worth the wait for the end results

Adam-M

Are these the same studs going in mine mark or are these rates higher

Mark Shead

No these are the higher rated ones.

Nothing to report except I want it I want it I want it lol

Out of interest why has it taken so long to get the car to the point its at now? I dont mean that in like a cocky or argumentative way at all btw, just was curious as obviously rod spent several years before he died getting it ready for its current spec etc. Obviously I appreciate it takes a fair bit of time to get a project like this finished but it seems to of gone on for a very long time. Good luck with it all, sure it will be awesome when finished.

I think parts needed are now ready so it's just got to be put back together and tuned then there's a few jobs marks doing for me to finish the car ready for me, I don't have time for alot of fiddling so will be ready to just up and go when I pick it up

Still no updates as yet mate

Cheers Paul, was a no brainer the most influential car to me on my journey to 1000 hp over all those years

bassboy

Any update on this buddy?

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

Nothing new still mate as yet

turbotrev

Crazy to think it’s coming up a year now from when you first said you’d buy it.
Time is just flying by!

Cheers Paul

I think I will be as old as rod was when I get to drive mine

It's not the normal car purchase scenario though bud, rod died mid build and I didn't want to miss the opertunity to buy it so I've effectively bought it before it's finished, mark is a busy man and I'm not pushing him to do it quick due to the circumstances of what's happened, I've got plenty of toys to mess with while I wait
