Draven's Porshe would be first (bring on the silicon carbide!). But as a lead up to it the Tiger Z100WR. Fastest production car 0-100: For the WR, twin 1200cc Kawasaki ZX12 engines were used, each producing approximately 190bhp. In November 2001, the Z100WR posted a 0 to 60 mph time of 2.8 seconds and a 0 to 100 mph time of 6.3 seconds using road legal tyres. Its a pity you can't engineer a car with a bike engine (or two!) in it. [Report message to a moderator]

The bike engine clubbie can be done (theres two PRB's in sydney with hayabusa engines) although its too late to start one now, it would have to be finished before the end of this year to get through the emissions test. Your other option is to sourse a pre adr's chassis.. My Fav car of all time..... 993RSCS...last of the air cooled RS's Julian. "Water's for drinking, not cooling" [Report message to a moderator]

I've been a Koenigsegg lover for years, that thing has slowly progressed and gotten cooler and cooler. BUT, A supercar isn't the most practical thing for every day. So I'd kill for an Aston Martin V8 Vantage, the new car coming out soon. Failing that, a JZA80, in a nice colour, with no wing and either a 3UZFE or 1GZFE strapped between its front suspension would be awesome too [Report message to a moderator]

Y'reckon? I would post statistics that prove me right beyond doubt, but I can't find them... for some reason there doesn't seem to be much in the way of documentation on weights of engines. Any pointers?

...I can't believe, though, that a 5L V12 would weigh a comparable amount to a 3L straight 6. Just doesn't seem right.

Re: Whats your ultimate ride?	Wed, 03 November 2004 09:28

Think of it this way. The 1GZFE is an all-alloy 5l V12, along the lines of the 1UZFE's construction. The 1UZFE weighs about the same as a 1GGTE, around 175kg. The 2JZGTE, while weighing less than a 7MGTE, has a very solid cast-iron block, and is still quite big. If the 1GZFE weighed much more than a 2JZGTE, even by a lot, it'd be surprising.

Grr... stupid typo. I know what a 2jz looks like, really... How much less does a 2JZ weigh than a 7M? I've got vague plans to get my hands on one for my MA70, but this talk of 'less weight' is giving me visions of better weight distrobution too...

It wouldn't be a huge difference over a 7M, couldn't tell you for sure. The reason the 2JZ is so strong is because it is fairly solid and well built But we digress and are hijacking the thread If you have a search, you should find something more definite. [Report message to a moderator]
