norris design evo. any rex to match it?

[weejimmy]

just seen simons @ norris designs updated evo.
the green (bogey) one with the cut down shell. hes mounted the engine the proper way now ie 90 deg from what it was and has a £15,000 holinger gearbox and up past the 1000bhp mark now.
is there any rx7 out there going this crazy.
 
i personly think its great in some ways, but i couldent afford that i spent less than that on my car including buying it.
can we steal skyline diffs etc too? like he has.
 
heres a wee link to a bitch fight about it but got some good info in there somwhere too.

Hmm, not much Evo left really. Given the several hundred thuosand he mustve put into it so far, I\'d imagine you could build a pretty useful RX7

[BlitzBoy]

I think RX7s more then beat that thing as it always cr*ps its transfer box on the line hahahaha :rollin

[Kevin]

When you say match it, do you mean one that can beat it round a track, one that would beat it in a straight line or just out and out dyno queen power?

Im sure Ross\' drag car would hold it\'s own against it.  Plus there\'s Slivermans_Rx (spelling?) thats just made Pip\'s dyno poop itself.

As 20b boy said given enough money you could achieve most things with any car, but you think with all that money, design, research and effort they could of picked a better fcuking colour.

I suspect it might not fall to bits off the line now Mark - He\'s using Skyline deffs to cope with the power rather than the mitsi diff and that Hollinger looks mahoosive.

[weejimmy]

yeah thats why hese got the holinger box and skyline diffs in it i think.
 
agreed very expensive, but still an evo
 
heres me thinking 500bhp was a lot. never mind

[weejimmy]

lol 2 new post whilst wrighting mine lol
 
yeah a mean round a track not just power.
 
but more to the point PIPS DYNO??
what happend has he got a new one yet. ive still not got my car maped !!!!!

[BlitzBoy]

well lets see what happens this time if he takes it Japan in the Tsukuba Time Attack this year, lets see if it beats the Panspeed RX7s time of approx 55 seconds

[sadgoth]

Pips Dyno asked that they stop, so they did, the dyno is ok, just couldn\'t give a full reading on the silversnail!

There are one or two RXs that could challenge the bogey on power and a few which could give it a hard time on the strip.

It\'s still alive just couldnt handle the powerz..... :Thumbsup!

[weejimmy]

so what kinda power do you need to overpower pips dyno?

[Kevin]

There you go mate, enjoy...

forget what they claim,  get it up the strip and then brag.  1000 bhp out of a 2 litre is pretty impressive though

Indeed, talk is cheap but a 1/4 time or circuit lap needs no explanation.

[weejimmy]

erm a dyno print out is a far more acurate way of showing a good engine than a 1/4 mile slip
i think its funny when people say stuff like that.
i think i rember dragon saying (but dont quote me) i dont power test my engines i use the drag strip??
but if you want to know how good an engine is you use a engine power measuring tool. ie a dyno lol
 
pluss the swiss and norway folks have had 1000bhp cossies for a while now @ 2 litre so yet again the uk lags behind
