(AMUSEME) VX Clubsport

[AMUSEME]

Hey fellas names Gordon driv a 2000 VX clubsport.
Just built a fully forged cast iron 5.7ltr for it with 6ltr heads and a gt45r to spice things up a bit.
Pulled the motor out today and im just waiting on a few things to get the new motor in, heres a few pics of the car.

[mitchy]

GT45R on a built LS1... very keen to see how that goes!

[Scaf]

More info and bay pics!

[AMUSEME]

AHHH the bottom end is completely built
Its a cast iron 5.7ltr block brand new they are in the S10 in the US.
The block has been decked, honed and balanced
Then had diamond low comp pistons (8.4-1)
Scat H-Beam rods king and kleivlight bearings
ARP headstud kit

On the top are L98 heads with aftermarket valves and springs. The manifold is standard but ported and TB
Then the gt45R 1200hp turbo

The bottom end is finished waiting on the heads to arrive and need to find some more coin for the fuel system. The motor only came out of the car today.

The aim is 1000hp and i wont stop till i get it.

[Torquen]

1000HP!!! Get fucked, thats insane! Keen to see this once finished :D

[ED40]

Forced V8 ftw. Sick project.

[Joe]

Welcome to the forum!

So how does it run, Gordon?

[Chris138]

First photo: Betta Wholesale reppin'

[S133LTR]

Sounds like alot of effort going into this, 1000hp is awsome stuff.

Any pics of the eng build/turbs and manifold set up?

[SSICK]

mite be able to turn a tyre at wannaroo this time round gordon? hahaha. build sounds pretty insane.

didnt think L98 heads fitted the 5.7s tho???

[ACTIV8]

1000hp requires biiiiiiiiiiiig $$ spent unless u only want to do it once

[INSINR8R]

Welcome to the forum!

So how does it run, Gordon?

Hahahaha

Almost sure it'll get away from the policeman. Hole and bong included.

[Sandy]

Just awesome...

[Kilma]

Sounds awesome. Always been a fan of VX HSVs.

Out of curisity, why are you sticking with 5.7L of displacement if you are aiming for such huge HP?

[AMUSEME]

Im still finishing off the engine side of things and haven purchased the turbo side of things yet. The reason for sticking with the 5.7ltr is simple the amount of money needed to build a 5.7 capable of that kind of power is a hell of alot cheaper than going the stroker low comp forged style combo.

I am deffinatly not building it on the cheap side either activ8 im using all the best parts money can buy and the motor will be done right the first time and only once.

ssick yeah dude deffinatly enough id say.
Yeah the L98 heads do fit onto the 5.7 same bore size this is the exact issue that ruined the first combo we came up with witch was L98 short with LSX heads but the LSX heads are 4.25'' so it wouldn work.

Ill post some picks of the new engine durring the weak but the build has only literaly just been decided on and put into play so i haven really got alot to show as yet except the plan.

However i WILL NOT STOP till the rollers read min 1000HP

[UD_LOSE]

dude u need a 4inch bore with L98 heads an ls1 uses a 3.900inch bore

[AMUSEME]

Shane Im hopin thats you dude I was told this a few times now but gary and jarred seem to think it will work........whats the go its friggan hard ay you get a hand full of people say it will work and another handfull say it wont.

My block def has been bored to 3.9

[shane]

dude u need a 4inch bore with L98 heads an ls1 uses a 3.900inch bore

Shane is 100% right, you need a 4 inch bore.

[SSICK]

back to the drawing board.......

[YOUR MATE]

LS2 heads will bolt up, not L98 ones.

[HIKARI]

one off crazy insane sleeper. that snail mounted rear bottom of the block?? gt45r..no shit.

[Turbo2.6L]

Just go 6 litre crate motor. Save the hassles & the pennies!
Nice build & hope you achieve the 1000hp you're after :D

[AMUSEME]

I just cant wrap my head around this the standard bore size of an LS1 i thought from googling was 3.898 LS2 4.000 LS7 4.125.
Am i right in saying that the bore size as such on the head side is the same as the block from factory.

Ok forget the above i think i just got it so my head choices now are either the LS1 heads or L76.

Sorry ssick i owe you a sorry mate people have just been confusing me.
But thats not all bad just mean i cant run L98 heads is all.

Any way thanks guys i really appriciate correcting me there and the input is great to.

[Olliejay]

It will be a veyron in a fatman suit

[Tre-Cool]

Building an engine with someone who doesnt really know what heads will go on what block will only result in complete and utter FAILURE.

Good luck your gonna need it.

[Turbo2.6L]

Typical Holden owner, right Dave? :lol:

[AMUSEME]

Well Tre-cool & 03xr6t i spoke to the the engine builders today and there response was "we have done several 5.7ltr L98 head combos and had no dramas made the power and owners were happy with the results"
So......i dont know......but these companys do know what they are doing.

The end result will tell the tale

[big block]

shane ,eddy and tony are the only ones that have made over 1000 and theyre not just rods and pistons ill give u the big tip if it was that easy to make 1000hp every body would be doin it. the people above have done alot of r&d to get what they have achieved. saving for a fuel system what about the other 60000+ u have to spend? good luck with your build u will need it

[Kilma]

SQP & MWS have done a few 1000rwhp+ cars as well.

I don't doubt that All the companies who have achieved it have put a lot of R&D work down, but you do have a few options.

Don't get me wrong AMUSEME, this isn't meant to be read as a hack at you, but you are making the 1000rwhp mark sound quite easy. I hope you have put a lot more research into it than you are making it sound like you have.

Good luck. I do hope you cheive this goal, as I'd like to see it as well.

[SSICK]

who is the engine builder?

[180SXTCY]

should of put a nissan motor in it for 1000 hp haha joking mate.

goodluck with it will be interesting to see if she can spin that up.

[Kye]

Put a 2J in it and be done with it

[Ryan]

who is the engine builder?

think hes been listening to jarad from street torque

AMUSEME: all honesty dude go see mitch and deb at wa perf

[esky]

the number plates seem somewhat appropriate, this build is amusing me.

[Tre-Cool]

think hes been listening to jarad from street torque

AMUSEME: all honesty dude go see mitch and deb at wa perf

unless this has changed recently but as far as im aware WA Performance doesn't build engines.

As it's been said there are really only 2 shops in Perth that have gone over or near 1000rwhp and that is SQP and Active Automotive (MWS engines are built by Street Quick).

I think a realistic target you need to set is about 600rwhp for the street, Once you try and go over that were talking big bucks and expensive hardware.

[mitchy]

should be CONFUSEME

I suspect they are getting L98 and LQ9 heads confused.

Either way if they dont know the engine block and head designations as a place that sells, builds engines this should be ringing alarm bells.

[Ryan]

unless this has changed recently but as far as im aware WA Performance doesn't build engines.

maybe not but atleast he would have correct information

been to jarrad from street torque / perth motorsport once and never again

[Macca]

I was reading a magazine last night and 900hp is quite easily achievable in my xr6 with just a mod chip. have 1 on order now so cant wait for epic skids

[TJ]

I thought you were being a homo and only wanted a XR8?

Anyhow, my question is why do you want 1000hp? If its going to be a street car ... well a true street car its going to be a waste.

It will idle like crap because of the cam and injector sizing needed to support it, will be laggy as fuck due to the turbo size, and probably be slower then a well setup 600hp car on the street because its just going to peel tyres.

Not having a go, since I dont give two fucks about the LS1/2/7/9 politics of Perth, but thats my opinion on a car aiming for 1000hp

If its going to be a show pony, go to MWS, sign a cheque, and take it to shows so people can fap over your dyno runs.

[JBAE]

save the money tweak it a little bit get a few hundred from it, save rest for install of vid cams in the back seat and plow the guts out of that blonde you posted in hot chicks thread and post!!! money well spent!

[millzy_88]

^^ Dont know much about 1000hp street cars but thats the image i get when thinking about one cruising through traffic. But if its a dyno queen then alls good.

[DJ84WA]

Put a 2J in it and be done with it

+1
1000hp with basically no mod's :)

:3some: didnt he have those choices before he started his build, take a push at the wall in the box you live in and step outside it you might just be surprised with what you find.

Money talks when you do a build like this and plenty of ppl have done builds and NOT got anywhere near the targets they have been told they can achieve and then walked away fleeced and disappointed.


Gordon

Go do some proper research, talk to the ppl who can make a difference and make a sound decision rather than working on emotion and what others pound you into the ground with, my advice to every customer that comes thru our doors is think about it before throwing your hard earned cash at it if it sounds to good to be true thats usually because it is.

Some solid advice there
Nothing wrong with having goals but don't think that simply walking into a workshop with a blank cheque is going to get you 1000hp. Like others have said, if it was that straightfoward more people would have done it.

[yeahlow34]

1000hp is massive. Easy to say, but so very difficult and expensive to achieve. Not having a dig, but judging by your posts I think you have significantly underestimated the sheer cost and logistics of building a 1000hp street car. If it were as simple as building a forged engine and strapping on a big huffer, there'd be alot more 1000hp+ cars cruising the streets.

You need to be getting advice from the right people dude. Also you need to make sure what you are aiming for - is what you want.

[Tocchi]

remember a 1000/1200 hp rated turbo is at the flywheel, and it will never push that figure as nothing is 100% efficient.

good luck in the attempt. it wont be easy or cheap.

1000 at the fly would be a much easier target, and even that isnt easy.

eg:
im looking at 700 to 800 at the fly for my capri.. and thats costing a fuckload... and for me to crack that 1000hp at fly, its going to cost an extra $20k minimum at least (build motor, bigger turbo, nos to spool turbo, new torque convertor, bigger fuel system, upgraded tailshaft, strengthen the chassis) etc... and then its a case of tubbing it more to fit bigger rims, would have to buy bigger rims etc.
probably closer to $40k in my case.



but best of luck, you will need it

[Brockas]

remember a 1000/1200 hp rated turbo is at the flywheel, and it will never push that figure as nothing is 100% efficient.


Bingo.

And a GT4508R is only rated to 700-1100hp by Garrett.

Almost certain this will be too small if you want 1000hp.


To give you an example, the Supra boys in the states who run 1000+ on happy dyno's run GT47's and GT55's.

[redline07]

All valid arguments, here's another. Can you drive?

[Skitzo]

dude, 1000hp is piece of piss to drive.

[PSI 304]

Yeah! If Gran Turismo is anything to go by i'd handle that shit all day

[magic1]

Ok, guys, we get the point.

good luck with the build, let us know the end result champ.

[DJ84WA]

Prehap's asking around and seeing if someone will take you for a drive in a 450-500rwhp car similar to your's. You may be happy with half what your aiming for and save a large amount of coin in the process.
Either way, if you are dead set on 1000rwhp then go for it.
Then drop skid's. :)
Good luck.

I wasnt having a go at you, was just stating that you dont build engines "in-house". I see engine building as a specialist kinda thing and as such was not something you did / needed to do and from all accounts you have been pretty successful without this part of your business so far.
:)

(Oh no, i think i just gave a compliment):lol:

I think what the OP should have done was spent a great deal of time doing some reading and talking to workshops & more importantly owners either on the street or drags etc so he had an understanding of sorts of what costs are involved and potentially what workshops to avoid (FT would be at the top of my list).

[AMUSEME]

Cheers for the comments and advice guys
Results will tell the tale as I said

Be sure to post those results, am eager to see.

[DanWA]

Lots of haters in here, make sure you actually do the figure dude!

[Miggy]

Even if you don't crack 1000 I wouldn't stress it's just a number.

But a monster turbo V8 is always going to = WIN!

Awesome project I can't wait to see the results.

[ACTIV8]

who cares about dyno figures.. make 700 and run 9's

[AMUSEME]

Yeah will do guys

[schnoods]

Looking forward to say the least.

wonder if that much power will be enough to cop flex in the body to crack windscreens?

[DanWA]

and go pop pop on the supercruise @ MV like ACTIV8

[KPWISHN]

I'm a big fan of VX's and especially ones that go hard. Man you got a lot of work/$$$$ ahead of you though talking such big figures. Great base to start with and hope you achieve your ambition. Like others have said though, make sure you get the motor sorted correctly before you go slamming 20psi in it. You can spend all the money you want on the best parts but if they aren't fitting together correctly then what's the point?

A tough gig for a manual VX Clubby. Race weight, car setup and driver skill are all big parts of the equation.

[ASSASIN]

It is that easy and has been done a few times in W.A alone
Money talks and bulshit walks.
Give me a blank cheque and i will build you a 1000rwhp street car.

[KPWISHN]

Any action?

[wormbo2]

good luck with build AMUSEME, you got a good canvas to work with.

I've driven a 400hp+ S/C VY R8 clubbie, and imo thats not shy of what i'd be comfortable thrashing.

[AMUSEME]

Hey lewis not to much going on mate slowly chipping away at it.
Looking at buying the driveline out of age 01 in the next week or so if all goes well.

Also had an engine built out of some motors lying arround and through it in so i could go racing and enjoy the car for a while, while i get the other bits n peices sorted

[Aristoman]

Any updates ?

[Jumanji]

To give you an example, the Supra boys in the states who run 1000+ on happy dyno's run GT47's and GT55's.

It only needs to be rated to that, LS1 with a right cam and head setup will make 400hp atw easily mates got a 6ltr that makes 380 at the wheels with an exhaust mafless tune and intake. Still will be laggy as fuck with that size turbo and will definately peel the tyres. But if you can make 700hp in a 2JZ 3ltr you can make that sort of horse power in a 5.7ltr with the L76 heads and the setup he is doing.

my two cents.

AMUSEME/Gordo... keen to see figures keep up the good work !

[AGIT8D]

Give me a car and a dyno and I'll give you 1000rwhp :) Or 380rwhp in a 6L with a tune. Numbers is numbers, but like everyone says if you really want to back it all up you gotta hit the 1/4. Drag racing times cannot be 'cooked' like dyno figures, and it's an independent figure without any workshop influence except building the package and tuning it.

[Aristoman]

pretty sure it's running a separovich motor now.

Running a slav built setup :p No disrespect but who the fudge is that !

Times aren't that great I've seen a 630rwhp r8 clubby on nitrous only pull a mid 12 second pass some cars built to pull figures some for time completely different, each one requires different ways if looking at how to build a car... Look at bpt's fgtyphoon 970 something rear wheel horsepower but don't get boost till 4th .... That would be a great time down the quarter....

[AGIT8D]

I'm talking MPH not ET :)

can have 1000rwhp but if its on 22" street tyres, dumped on its ass, full street trim with stezza, etc etc and a manual gearbox with the driver "ok" shifter then that 1000rwhp car is gonna run 11s or even 12s and if wheelspinning the whole track mph is gonna be way down to what it should

track times can be "fudged" just like dyno times as both have there variables

[ruler]

this thing is going to be a beast. im personally doing a c4 corvette with an LS6 to do 800. good luck and keen to see the results :)

[sprint347]

I'm all for setting goals and I also believe in constructive feedback.

If you want 1000 wheel horsepower, making that power through a T56 means you'll be needing around 1200hp at the motor. I'm not sure what rods your using but assuming they're the 'usual' eagle/scat h-beams they'll be rated for 800hp. You need stronger rods to make 1200hp.

Then there's the turbo, as mentioned previously that turbo has a MAX rating of 1150hp so pushing 1200hp on pump fuel is going to be very, very hard.

To make power, you need fuel and spark. We're talking a massive amount of air that will require a massive about of fuel to get a good AF ratio. Surge tanks, multiple pumps, massive throttlebody, big injectors, big fuel lines are all required.

You then need to be able to burn the mixtures so be prepared to fork out big for MSD (or similar) coilpacks and ignition.

You will need to run BIG boost to make the power you're after, which will be doing it's best to push the heads off the block. You will need to run o-rings (custom machining), copper head gaskets and stud kits throughout.

Get any of the above wrong, and you'll torch things in SECONDS.

Then there's crank/block strength, I'm not sure if you've gone for a truly top shelf crank like callies/cola but I'm sure of one thing. If that's a stock block, there's a good chance your crank will be sitting on the road if you try to wind 1200hp through with the standard block/caps.

I am not trying to scare you off your dream, just be prepared that massive power is a massive clusterf*ck.

From the little info I we have on your combo I think you can safely aim for 600-700rwhp and have quite a ball tearer. But the extra 500hp odd at the motor required for 1000 wheel horsepower will put your build into another category; one that requires a stupid amount of cash, dedication, knowledge and skilled resources at your disposal.

Good luck!

as dan said, it's not the times, it's the MPH.

if you reel off a lazy mid 12... at 140MPH, you are packing a decent figure.
and, if you take it to the drags on 22" streeters, you're a bigger clown than someone who takes a dyno figure as gospel.

[Tocchi]

this still going on :-/

workshop dyno queens are to get the customers in. big HP will get more customers in via word of mouth than MPH will.
as the majority of "tune/cam/exhaust/etc" cars (mostly fords and holdens) have owners that dont give a shit about how fast it will go at the Plex. they just want to chop their mate at the lights, and brag about their power at the sunday bbq.

if i remember correct, a certain piss coloured BF F6 with 370rwkw ran 10.9 ... but a 540rwkw BF F6 from another workshop ran 12s.

numbers are fuckall.. unless you are a trev

[Jumanji]

I'm talking MPH not ET :)

Fair call... Not trying to start an arguemeent at all the clubby was on 17inch r8 wheels don't know what pressure though :)

in my mind it's logical that if you can pull 700 out of a 2j or Rb then should be possible with more displacement. My new car after the hail storm is a gold vr Calais 5 ltr but I'm giving in and building a rb30 for it way more what the factor when you hear a skyline with a chainsaw kit and see a vr barge drive past lol.

[Stef]

pretty sure there will be more of a wow factor if there was an rb25 in it. and it will be easier to rego because of the age of the motor compared to age of car.

all comes down to how good the engine builder is, and how good the tuner is. my thoughts are that gordo is not going el-cheapo spec build on this, i personally would like to see this happen as there isnt anything like it in wa.

1. I was thinking rb30 with 25 or 26 head gt35 turbo chainsaw kit ect. 5 ltr k frame is the same as a vl so it's all bolt up with rb30's I don't know about 25 or 26's though.

2. Agreed lots of money time and effort = lots of horsepower

[Stef]

pm sent.

[AMUSEME]

as they say horsepower sells a car torque moves a car!
seen this clubsport in the flesh on the cruise last weekend very nice sounds so angry! good meeting you gordo.

LOL Thanks dude feels good to know that after all the dramas it turns a few heads.


pretty sure it's running a separovich motor now.

The current motor was built by Street Torque.
Thunder Performance and C-RED now look after the car in every aspect and are the only two companies involved in building the turbo motor.

The plates will change shortly to [BRAWLER]

[Turbo2.6L]

if i remember correct, a certain piss coloured BF F6 with 370rwkw ran 10.9 ... but a 540rwkw BF F6 from another workshop ran 12s.




Times aren't that great I've seen a 630rwhp r8 clubby on nitrous only pull a mid 12 second pass

Same piss coloured shitheap mentioned above by Tocchi also chopped the supposed 630rwhp clubbie in the above quote. Haha

When's the turbs getting strapped on to this VX?

LOL well atm moment it has issues tune wise 370hp on WA Perf's dyno but once tune issuse are sorted hopefully 390-400 just getting spray fitted up as well. Very different to drive in comparison to other LS1's tho due to the comp.
