I rode in a 500hp LS s13 last week. I’m pretty sure that’s the fastest car I’ve ever ridden in and that made me feel uncomfortable, lame I know. I don’t think I ever want to ride in anything faster, maybe drive, but def not as a passenger.

a 500whp that actually puts all the power down is pretty redic… even 400whp is scary in something set up well.

it’s all relative though. s13’s like that are rattle cans usually… a C6 vette with that kind of power doesnt feel like you’re going to explode

A nice long final drive ratio helps high hp cars feel smoother and not as fast too.

This 300zx is pretty sweet. I didn’t know they were making this type of jam on the stock style motors. Dude racing like to take the hit though 🙂

900hp isn’t anything special though. If we’re talking pure dyno numbers there have been cars in the 1,200 range that can actually close their hoods, lol.

I’ve always want a JUN 3.3 stroker kit but I told myself it wouldn’t happen unless I killed the motor I have… And that doesn’t seem like it’s happening.

I hope he’s just screwing around with the out of the hood setup…great packaging up till that point.

Wouldn’t that require driving it on a regular basis?
