Was just browsing and came across this. I know there are a couple of projects going on here, but was wandering how it’s all going? Can’t wait till I see a one of these V8s in a Z….

about 300-320 hp standard, althought takes very little to get her up to 400hp ...and with the work John Dixon is putting into this it will be a LOT more than that....and thats just in NA form

 

Slap a pair of small tubs on with low boost and she will see 600hp+ easily.

 

..and its lighter and much stronger than the VG

 

There are a few running around with 1000hp and up to 9000rpm on standard internals ! (and double that power with forged internals!)

 

Used a lot in Racing. There is a turbocharged VH45de in a 300zx (named 450zxtt) putting out over 1000hp. There is also a Supercharged one in a Skyline R33 doing 9sec quaters.

Ummm now that does sound good, my house mate has a chimera and that sound bloody amazing........

 

lets see some Z's that can produce that soundtrack! although my standard V6 with my HKS exhaust sounds pretty sweet
