Got to admit the 20B's do sound preety damn good. About 100000000 times better than its little brothers anyway. Sounds like a worked V6 at idle as well. Dont know about the 22's though.

One thing people are forgetting.... Weight distribution
If he got rid of the bling, put some nice 18's with some Carrera Cup slicks on, I doubt you will find many street V8's keeping up with it around a circut... |

But really. Its a lame video of a guy trying to do burnouts in a car he's spent a gazillion dollars on to make it Blingtastic, and now it won't spin the tires unless he bounces it off the limiter and pops the clutch (and that ultra low profile sidewall should make it easier to light up!), and promptly overheats. I still want that 2 minutes 16 back....

Also posted on the other forum by the owner:
I thought i would register on here since im the owner of this car. KOPPERS Id watch what you say on public forums bud when you dont even know me so dont claim that you know what i do !!! You may get yourself into some trouble with a big mouth like that. Thanks very much for the comments and feedback guys its much appreciated. Basically this car WAS my daily untill it got a bit out of hand when i lost my license. Basically the car has totally been built in 6mths !!! The engine we built for this is identical to that of Dyson Rotary's RX7 that runs 7.4 It was a costly project although its been something ive wanted to do since i bought my Z new in 2004. The car is good for over 800hp @ wheels and its also armed with a nitrous kit also. The intentions with this car were to do some Drag racing and bring it out on the street occasionally when i get my license back in another year If there is anyone on here based in QLD ill be bringing it out to Dysons Dyno Day on Aug 6th at there workshop in Labrador and you can have a better look at it then. It will also be featured on the cover of september FAST FOURS magazine, Autosalon cover, Ignition DVD cover, maybe Zoom and also cover of american magazine Import Tuner. Brisbane Autosalon is also on the cards at the moment as OZZY TYRES have just come on board as a major sponsor. Also to clarify a few things YES this car CAN and WILL be engineered. It aint just a 1000hp engine slapped into a 350z, we have changed to coilover suspension, 365mm brake upgrade kit, 1.5 way lsd, billet driveshafts. At present i have a race built 2sp powerglide on order which will be in the car intime for the Jamboree so we will have to wait and see how it all goes then. Thanks very much for your interest in my car Anthony
