Street shenanigans prevail in this short clip as a pair of premium imports take to the interstate (in Mexico). The cars are both from 1995, but only one was sold in North America. A Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) import, the Skyline is right-hand drive. Have a gander for yourself. Rolling in the right lane, the all-wheel drive 1995 Nissan Skyline GT-R is powered by a turbocharged 2.6-liter inline 6-cylinder engine. The block is cast iron, and the cylinder head is aluminum. The turbo setup includes an intercooler, and the engine is direct port fuel injected. Modifications from stock include a Read More

The young guns at Hot Rod Brothers (HRB) Customs offer this example of their exceptional craftsmanship.

That crazy intake manifold is from Frankenstein and features integrated intercoolers. The turbochargers are Garret 68-millimeter.

Greetings drag racing fans. This one has a bit of everything! Front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, turbo and naturally aspirated. What the front-wheel drive Acura Integra lacks in cubic inches, he more than makes up in forced air induction. This guy is running a Darton sleeved four-cylinder B-series motor with a B16 cylinder head. The turbocharger is a Garrett 72-millimeter capable of swallowing up livestock. The last time that the car was on the dyno it made more than 1,100whp. The transmission is a sequentially shifted dog box with a billet bell housing. The front end is a drag race 3-piece Read More

Looking like she just drove out of a Saturday night ice cream cruise, this 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 rolled into Bandimere Speedway as a serious contender in the Stick Shift Class. The vintage Ford winds up in the Finals against a 9-second EVO. Drag racing does make strange bedfellows. Car owner Bill tells us that the Fairlane 500 is equipped with a 427 cubic-inch Windsor platform Dart Racing engine (all-aluminum). It is force fed by a pair of Garrett turbochargers. The manual transmission is a face-plated Tremec T-56 Magnum with a twin centered iron diaphragm clutch. The whole package is Read More

After driving his Dodge Viper 244.43 mph in the half-mile, 18-year old Milan Patel showed up at the Maryland International Raceway and put on a drag racing extravaganza! His Gen II Viper has posted a best quarter-mile time of 6.96-seconds @ 215 mph. That’s a World Record set by Sal Patel (who is Milan’s dad) in 2012. We are looking for more great things from this video. Sal’s Viper is an incredible example of speed and power. It is equipped with a stock (block) 8.4-liter V10 engine that has been enhanced with a pair of Garrett Gen II GTX 88 Read More

It is extraordinarily rare to run across a Mazda RX-7 with a 4-rotor (engine) setup. It is twice as unlikely to come across two – much less on the same day and in the same place. One could make the comparison of being struck by lightning – twice. Let’s begin with the Formula Seven (black) car. It started as a 1993 Mazda RX-7 with no motor or transmission. Car owner, David Mazzei had a vision for what the car could be, and the reality has been four-years in the making. For David, it has been a labor of love. Under Read More

Remember the not-too-distant past when dynos were only good for 2,000hp? Well, those days are gone and Gary Ubert and his team at NC3 are pushing the envelope as high and as hard as possible in this video.

They begin their quest for glory on the dyno with realistic intentions of documenting the capacity to make 4,000hp. Let’s see how it goes. Under the hood of this tube chassis race car is something exceptional. At the heart is a ProLine 572 Read More

You can call me asphalt because I always be laying it down on the street! This video takes us to the streets of Denver (Mexico) for some high-level street hits between vehicles that make more than 900hp. Key matchups include a battle between a twin turbo Mustang and a DSM EVO with a big turbo. Let’s see what happens during tonight’s wild ride. The Gen VI Ford Mustang GT has a built 5.0-liter modular V8 with a pair of Precision 6466 turbochargers (and all the trimmings). Set to generate 27 psi of boost, this pony car is making 1,400hp at Read More

This 1995 Volkswagen Golf GTi gives terms like “sequentially-shifted” and “all-wheel drive” new meaning. You see, this wild-looking VW manufactures 1,500hp with a pair of VR6 turbocharged engines (mated with a pair of sequentially-shifted manual transmissions) – one on each end! First, the engines. They are matching VR6 mills built with powder-forged connecting rods and JE pistons. Up top are Techtonics (solid lift) camshafts. Intake and exhaust manifolds are full custom with a pair of Garrett 67-millimeter turbochargers (air-to-water intercoolers) furnishing the air. The gearboxes are both from KAPS Sequential. Each engine makes approximately 750hp. The car is owned, built Read More

So, what do they call a Chevrolet in Australia? It’s called a Holden and this is the most powerful one of its kind. When Bubba Medlyn grabbed himself a clunky VH Holden Commodore, it seemed like just another sedan. What you see in this video is the result of years of comprehensive effort and inspiration. It is also being billed as the most powerful street car ever built. The Bubbamobile was prominently displayed during the Aussie Summer Nationals. It was strapped to a specially-designed Mainline dyno, where its full potential could be realized. It all begins under the hood for Read More
