I wonder if there are any turbo timers that would leave the car running long enough to let it safely cool down :P

wow... that's absolutely crazy...

Ford had a similar problem with the GT90 Concept car of the mid-90's. The exhaust from the Quad Turbo V12 reached about 4000 degrees farenheight, so they had to put ceramic insulation tiles throughout the car's body to keep it from melting!

Powerful Huh? 8) Whether this 1000Hp Engine will be going into that car or not I don't know, but the race is on for a street driveable 1000Hp XR6T

The largest T of I know of at this time is running 380RWKW (about 650Hp) and It is an absolute weapon already. Fist time out it did a 13.43 1/4mile at 103MPh on street tyres! This was also the first time the guy EVER did a 1/4 mile before and it is a T56 Manual, not a beefed up auto!

There's not much that can compare to 270Rwkw and 700+Nm whacking you in the back at full throttle, we'll not in an Aussie car, that's for sure!

Just found out that this little baby runs 1000Nm at only 3500RPM with the huge turbo and full exhaust. The Motec lets it rev to 7200 instead of the stock 6500 as well! Awesome engine, though I think it's about $35,000

The best engine in the world is the vagina, it takes any size piston, its self lubricating, starts with 1 finger, and every 4 weeks does its own oil change. It's just a pity the management system is so f**king temperamental.

I Found an article about the engine if anyones interested :)

http://carsguide.news.com.au/news/story_page/0,8269,10929419%255E21822,00.html

Quote
James Stanford 01oct04

A MELBOURNE tuning house claims it has developed a Falcon XR6 Turbo engine with 746kW of power (1000hp).

Nizpro, which started tuning Nissan engines, has turned its attention to the BA Falcon and its Turbo six-cylinder.
The standard engine develops 240kW of power in the XR6 Turbo and Ford Performance Vehicles will unveil its own tuned 270kW version next month.

But Nizpro decided to go all out and push the force-fed engine as hard as it could.

Nizpro owner Simon Gischus says he built the engine to promote the capability of his Bayswater-based company.

Two of the 746kW engines are on order, with customers prepared to hand over $38,000.

"It sounds like a lot of money, but you would have to spend a massive amount to get half the horsepower in anything else," Gischus says.

"You can never put all of that power to the ground. It's more about owning an engine that has 1000 horsepower."

The Nizpro upgrades are not endorsed by Ford and its warranty does not cover modified engines.

Nizpro recommends owners upgrade their gearboxes as well.

The 746kW XR6 Turbo engine is fitted with a large front-mounted intercooler, special crank-shaft, conrods and pistons, stronger valve springs and an engine computer, but camshaft chain and cylinder head are standard.

Nizpro offers upgrades in stages that increase power to 300kW, 395kW, 450kW and more than 600kW.

Yeah, this 1000Hp engine is on order for a streeter apparently! that photo is of it (the huge turbo) doing 120,000+RPM which I think is like about 30,000 more than what it should! :o Plus the 1000Hp is at around 22Pound of Boost, relatively little

First XR6T to break 12 Seconds last night on standard 17" Street Tyres! 11.999@121Mph!

Apparently RDP have the new Typhoon on order and are looking for an 8 second promo car ;D


Credit where credit is due to Ford, they have an engine that with in Two Years is just as powerful and has just as much torque (far lower in the rev range) than the much revered RB26DETT, why do people still say (because it's Ford) it's crap?

$38,000 is alot of money, but then again, any 764Kw engine will cost a bit, try getting an 750KW HKS RB26 or a 750KW Cosworth or Lambo Motor for that :P

The holden V6 is a buick and the V8 a Chev. Both are made in USA. Both have 2 valves a cylinder and use pushrods (OHV). This is cutting-edge 1970's technology.

bloody oath its cheap!!! when u take into consideration one of the new supercars being unveiled at the MotorShow anyway....

the new Koenisgsegg CCR supercar is a 4.7 litre supercharged V8 that puts out 601kw and does the 0-100km/h sprint in 3.2 seconds!!!  :o :o
it's all yours if u've got a lazy $1.25million bucks...... personally i'd prefer the ford - so i could keep the change for the petrol ;)

for $200k you could get a 1000hp triple turbo R33 skyline... it does 0-100km/h sprint in just 2.3 seconds!!!
so yeah its still looking cheap!
but spose you have to considder that to have this ford thing you would need a mother of a gearbox and drivetrain, so that is extra cost to the $38k

What does a base option BA with the XR6T motor cost, say $40k, if that? Spend the $38k on the engine, total $78k, plus another $4-6k on brakes, $3k on suspension, $5k on sticky tires and decent rims, so for a total of $90k you have one monster of a BA that will scare anyone. THAT is cheap performance of that magnitude in my books.

I know i'd rather take that option than spending $90k on a HSV or FPV product.

hey rake, u kno how u said that thing about the turbo timer.... there was a race a while back now with a toyota mr2 vs a suburu wrx, across australia, and they sat flat stick the whole way, or for as long as possible b4 breaks, and on the last leg, the turbo timer in the wrx was AUTOMATICALLY set to 40 mins......

There is no need to buy an XR6T motor as Nizpro: strip down, check the bores, remachine, add new manifolds rods, pistons and injectors etc...As long as it's a Barra 4.0 it's good...

BA XT : $35,000
Nizpro BA1000 : $38,000
Mal Wood T-56, Dual Plate Clutch and Beefed 3.73 LSD : $12,000
AP Racing 6/4 Spots with Thick Slotted Discs: $10,000
Full 'Whiteline' Coil-Over System and Ancillaries: $6,000
Forged 19's and Good Rubber : $7,000
Carbon Fibre Bonnet, Fiberglass Gaurds and General Lightening : $4,000
Random Assorted Tidying Up : $1,000

That $113,000, or Porsche Boxter money...

Would eat even an LS1 with a Starr Charger package as it has Go, Woah, Hadling, the lot...

Falconguy, i honestly wouldn't fork over $38k for Nizpro's engine, i would possibly buy their stronger crank, but i think that i could build that kind of engine for $25k. They've probably got a HUGE profit margin in that, like $8k.

Oh there's no doubt that there is a huge margin in that engine, and IF you could machine it all etc yourself you could do it alot cheaper, though, as the BA 4.0 does suffer ALOT from core shift, getting a good block to work on is pretty hard.One guy who I think will be getting one of these (currently the highest power XR6T in Aus@380rwkw) said Nizpro went through SIX blocks to get one with a good cast!!!!! That is included in the price of the Nizpro1000.

The work that goes into it includes: Big Motec, New Uber HiFlowed Turbo, All block truing and machining, head cleanup, valve springs, Billet Rods and crank and forged pistons, New Intake Manifold, Huge Intercooler, New Injectors.



As a side point...What would a 750KW engine cost from HKS or Tommy Kaira? Even Ford SVO or Chevvy Bowtie?

I'm guessing $45k+.
You know Nizpro farm out their machine work, because they don't have any of that gear in their workshop on barry st.

I didn't know that about Nizpro, I thought they did some work there? Maybe just mapping and all that?

APS also have some high power kits too. An APS stage three ran to 309Km/H! Thats about $11000 for 12.2@115 on street tyres!

The biggest trouble with the BA is that they are FAT, around 1800Kg and that alot of inertia to beat!
