GTM Performance Engineering VQ45VHR-Our Journey to The 1000 HP and Beyond

bullitt5897 · 07-21-2010, 02:16 PM

hahaha we are hoping to rip a 220+ standing mile! I think I may need to have a new tach made lol at the end it will say PLAID... I will also have an indicator light at 88mph that says 1984 too.

We will see I got a lot of stuff about to go down that may include new parts being designed to widen fenders and new hood designs too...

Widen the rear fenders? Damn dude you're talking about some major cutting, I wouldn't do it you can (if you haven't already) throw 12in tires on the rears. Anything bigger and it'll be really hard to go tire shopping, destroying the "daily driver" aspect of it.

I thought you were getting the Zele kit?

bullitt5897 · 07-21-2010, 02:51 PM

I am getting the Zele kit. These are just going to be wider fenders for the front for sure the rear is a maybe. Also, there is a possibility of a new hood design.

Cool, good find! I wish he was a more active member...

Yum, Carrillo. My dream setup would be Carrillo rods and Wiseco pistons.

LunaZ · 07-23-2010, 09:01 PM

What you should really try to get out of this whole build more so than a 220mph standing mile. "The GT-R's "high-speed driving test"-the front passengers enjoying an easy conversation without raised voices at 186 mph". You should figure out how to do that at 220

bullitt5897 · 07-26-2010, 07:09 AM

Hahaha the wind noise alone would make you have to raise your voice lmao. Good Idea though lol I just don't think it's gonna be a long convo at 220+ hehe

NYBladeZ · 07-26-2010, 11:23 AM

Bullitt I got a question. Thus far no one has been able to crack the VVEL tuning. What are you guys using for engine management? Do you think you'll be the first to crack VVEL?
