Not your average escort

::Stolen this from cruisewigan, dayle put it up::




few days ago the monstrous 300ZX engined Escort Cosworth visited the dyno of C.C. Racing in Cyprus to test their new setup.

The results were stunning!!! At 3 bar boost pressure the car managed 1180 at the wheels without the use of nitrous. After they checked that everything is ok they turned on their 250 shot and tried again. The result was 1344 at the wheels and 138 kg torgue at 9500rpm with the boost pressure picking at 3 bar....

The engine and car is 100% prepared by Antonis and Stavros, and the chassis is highly modified in order to cope with the enormous horsepower and torgue of the engine...

The car uses Elecromotive Tec 3 electrics, Two huge Turbonetics turbos, two Spearco charge coolers and the tuning was made by Maik Haralampous of JMC

I should remind you that its best time was 8.8@256km with much lower power last year in Athens... http://www.greekdragster.com/images...ek_dragster_antonisstavros_escortv6_1_std.jpg

:0 OMG thats crazy

 

[fraz_micra_88]

that is well crazy!! looks like something a wee child put together aswell lol

 

[goldstar0011]

Probably only way you can justify the batwing!

That power would hurt just driving, would be a blast on those american straight long roads

 

[Raceworx]

does that front wheel look like its moving to anyone else in the pic of it on the dyno???? if so then its 4wd??? using what Gbox??

 

[Demarest]

That is insane.

 

[scottish-sr]

Yip it looks like it's moving.

Crazy car.

 

[Arnold]

That looks mad! Not exactly road legal though!

 

[hughes_16v]

where did they find those turbos? from a cruise liner lol

 

[kristian]

yar.. them 'cruise liner' turbos lol

 

[Dusk]

Full cruise liner, with Full turbos, lol.

Wonder why they chose 300zx engine. Its one of the most fragile v6 engines. Wonderfull torque curve for such a high power car however and quite a strange place for the throttle bodies.

 

[Titch]

Nice!

 

[rhaines]

still cant polish a turd though

 

[5ilver Micra]

If only it had Wing's

 

[NeX]

i want to hollow out one of those turbos and live in it!!!!

 

[Raceworx]

dont know why you say that ed jun broke loads or records in there 300ZX 200+ miles an hour in the early 90's and was street drivable with a change to its final drive.... any engine pushin more than twice its factory intended power is going to be fragile... alright some cope better.

the turbos look like there from the Turbonetics Thumper range.. there figin huge!!
