1.factory claims 360 kw @flywheel 510nm torque 0-100km/h in 4.8sec.
that is all the claim available from factory.


2.i had 2 runs with the esp on and the gear in d.
lights turned green put my foot down and planted it.
it stalls for a split sec then launches
both runs where a 12.8 sec @ 180 km/h

3.best run was.
put esp off
put it into manual mode 1st gear got into the water put my foot on the brakes and pressed the accelerater to warm the tyres .
the car spins on the spot to warm the tyres.u can spin it on the spot up to 100km/h
then i did a few burnouts on the dry to warm the tyres.
launch-manual mode 1st gear esp off
lights turned green i planted my foot and changed the gears on the steering wheel @ 5800 rmp that is when it claims to make the most power

final result was 12.6 sec @181 km/h
from a stock e55 which i personally think is execellent.

Which city are you in? I'm from Durban. I left in the late 80's but I go back frequently since most of my family is still there.

She's not really a track queen because I'm afraid to break anything. The motor cost so much to build that I baby it. I think that was my mistake.

The motor's fully built, from a race ported head with a full titanium valvetrain with oversized valves to higher (yes, higher) compression so I get more low end torque. Rods, pistons, the works, with a full fuel system and 1,000cc injectors and a 76mm Dual Ball Bearing Turbo.

If you're going to build a supra, I suggest you put a medium sized single turbo on it, 720cc injectors and have a day. No need to really build the entire engine unless you want to make insane power. Stock block supras will run 500whp all day long and not break.
