stupra Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I'd say it was bollocks mate, i've raced a friend of a friend's twin turbo 300zx, an killed it. There's no way an n/a would be putting out 400 bhp, unless it maybe had some serious work done to it. He was givin it the large. [large bollocks that is] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew7 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Standard 300 zx stick out 240bhp (turbo is around 300) Could have been tuned i suppose (but I doubt it)............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprash Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 This sounds like my recovery bloke that came out to me once, he reckoned he had a 900bhp Skyline, when I asked him what he had done to it all he said was he swapped the cams, as its twin cam you know, and changed some cylinder sleeve things, so they were thinner thus causing less friction on each stroke, I asked him what turbo it had and he said Skyline ceramics and that was it, 900 break boys.......

Clarkey Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 When I meet people like that - sometimes I try and catch them out. Though not a techie whizz on cars .. neither am I totally stupid. I ask them lots of questions. If they're bullshitting - it can be quite amusing when they start to look sheepish. My cousin is like that. He's also a first rate prick. Don't like him - infact - I can't abide him to honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
