    You're all thinking too small. Gearboxes, pistons, petrol. Quit living in the past.

    I know I was just emphasising... ok no, didn't see it.

    Yekno there's an engineering company in England that produce an engine designed to take two hayabusa engines and create a v8 from them, the impressive thing is they haven't lost any of the performance characteristics of the individual engine on its own.
    So essentially you get 2x hayabusa performance in a smaller package than the two separate engines would be :)

    Phisher sports cars I think it is, now stick one of those in a chassis and bobs your uncle!

    An individula hayabusa engine gets 170hp? last I checked and thats NA, think of a turbo, with the revs the bikes get, then have two of them, now THATS an engine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    You want nice big turbos, lots of lag wahey! lol :)

    That would have to have a nuclear warhead warning on the side of it.,lol,

    a hyabusa engine at about 19k RPM would turn a turbo into a molton lump of mushy shiney stuff.,
    see a turbo works by using exhaust gases to turn a turbine that in turn pressurizes air into the air intake, that allows a higher volume of air/fuel mixture into the cylinders and results in a "bigger bang", or more UMmphh to us.,
    the average turbo car revs at about 8k on the redline and during idle it will sit at about 600-1000rpm meaning the turbo can rest, thats why ya get turbo lag coz your waiting for the pressure to build up and spin the turbo up enough to "boost" the engine,.,
    In the case of the hyabusa engine you would have to get a turbo designed and built by Albert einstein, leonardo DaVinci and God altogether in the same room to be able to cope with anywhere near 19k rpm.,lol.,:D
    In fact, the turbo would be spinning so fast it would be more useful to use that alone as a jet engine instead of powering the car through a gearbox mechanically.,:D

    Lol, good way to put it.

    I think they get more around 10-12k rpm though, turbo'ing hayabusa's is a real prestige thing among the busa nuts, if it blows up what the hell :D

    Youtube have...

    499hp

    In fairness I assume its a street fighter (crashed previously but running) so it isnt meant to last, but there are loads of turbo busa's out there, some people are just mad I suppose :)

    Thanks
    Simon

    AFAIK none.

    Try asking them maybe, but they dont combine shipping outside the us.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,095 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Bidding on multiple auctions? Simply wait until all of the auctions are ended. Complete the checkout from the most recent email that you received from us with the combine shipping cost.

    From that I just thought that they did. They're rates are great anyways.

    Maybe they've started, but for ages people were pissed that they didn't combine for europe, but would send in one package any way, saving a few bob for themselves.

    They haven't combined for me anyway.

    Sure ask them and see what they say maybe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭NakedDex


    No they don't do any. I've been onto them several times for shipping discounts on very big orders and got nothing. They just send you the invoice with the total amount because not all of the items will automatically add the shipping price.

    Just found this on ehobby for 700quid! :eek:

    so whos gonna be the one to say its good looking?.,lol :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭NakedDex


    700 for that? If anyone was tasteless enough to want one they could build it for less. Nitro RIS tri-rail front end, G&P 6inch silencer, G&P ready-mag (I assume with an extended feeding tube), reflex sight, folding foregrip and a RIS mount torch. How did they get 700 bucks from that????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    The folding foregrip is the best looking part, and that's still ugly.

    I would only buy that if it was to be a gift for someone that I really didn't like and I wanted to embarrass them.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    I was installing an old game on an old PC (It won't run on new PC), and it gave me the following error which I though was quite funny.
