Dunno, but whatever it is, its turning out so much torque it's almost twisting the engine off it's mounts!!!

I'm not sure that this video is for real.....? I'll believe it until I see it for real in person ( from someone who knows people and has owned a car over 500BHP (Nissan Skyliner GT-R, I can't believe a tuned R32 can achieve this.....

F**king amazing if it can...... but I know what it takes to take a car over 500BHP..... and it's a major change......

If you watch and listen to the two runs on the car, there is a major change in the second run for the 600BHP that is different and alot more louder from the first run, but they both hit around 600BHP, which don't really match up.... which is why I question the power of this car.....

I maybe wrong but I've been around too long to know what can hit this power and I'm not sure this video is for real....

saying all that, you have to LOVE that sound..... sweet......? 8) 8) and I want one of those cars please.........? ;)

man that is awesome!!!
madone, i think its for real, on the first run he slowly went up throught the gears and then booted it, the second run was done like a sprint screaming up up throught the gears. if dubsport can get 456 bhp out of a 1.8 20 valve turbo, why cant some crazy yanks get 600 bhp out of a 3.2 litre turbo??

oh and i like the way the video is awsome but in true cheesy yank style, they end up with a shot of their flag!!! god bless america! uncle sam and  apple pie made this car possible :P

Most engines do do that, I rember watching JVs at the rolling road test and thinking "holy cow thats gonna fly off!"

it certainly is real.. noone remember the bi-turbo R32 at santa pod ? as for being 2wd, thats the beauty of the 4motion system.. you can unplug the haldex unit making it permanent 2wd for use on rolling roads ?;D

the engine mounts must be f**ked!!!! i wonder what the torque is!?!? 600lb/ft?

imagine how much cost its entailed to get it that tuned... mad.

That's terrifyingly scary.
I'd like that engine in something a little more retro, maybe in the back of a Mk1 with a 4wd system, rollcage and race prep'd, but subtle looking from the outside.

i didn't mean that to sound bad if thats what you were thinking?! i just meant that 'americans' ?;) love to show thier alegiance to the stars and stripes, and its just quite funny of those guys to end up with a shot of the flag. jerry bruckheimer would be proud!
