bluecoup Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 i've seen the bm too, ok somewhere it never rains what happens when the turbos are glowing and you hit a puddle ? some major plumbing to be done too also he seems to have missed something major the steering wheel is on the wrong side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodilx6 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Should've been white if those carbon details must be on there. Also whats up with the crappy gauge install? But NIICE car. Must be quite quick. But OMG, what is up with the "dude"? I'm guessing its his dads car or something. A guy like that would be more fit in a maxed out civic...

Bobbeh Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Very nice car!! Looks like the guy spent all the money on his car (if it is his) judging by the state of his pants lol. Dude, get some damn jeans or sommat lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Anyone think one of these v8s would fit a supra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 You might need to redesign the front of the car, much like they had to with the IS to fit it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 AH NUTS! There any advantages as to WHY you would remote mount turbos though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Surely they would loose efficiency being that far away... Sure it sounds good but can't see much performance benefit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 from my understanding wouldnt all that pipework make it a bit laggy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Gorgeous looking car, really nice, and a funny plate too:) Remote mounts = Hello, meet my good friend turbo lag. Must be the most inefficient way to mount turbos ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 AH NUTS! There any advantages as to WHY you would remote mount turbos though Packaging reasons mainly, probably not enough space to realistically fit them under the bonnet. I've seen people claim cooling benefits too, but you wouldn't do for that reason. Gorgeous looking car, really nice, and a funny plate too:) Remote mounts = Hello, meet my good friend turbo lag. Must be the most inefficient way to mount turbos ever. I would have thought that too, but from what I've read it shouldn't make much difference.
