I think you have a better chance of getting abducted by an alien.

12 piston calipers may not necessarily be helpful or beneficial. Braking systems require an in-depth knowledge and first-hand experience to create to back up the technology. There are other considerations such as whether your master cylinder is capable of supporting this type of pressure and braking hardware. Some of the best brake setups out there are monoblock single piston designs that maintain an effective close-ratio brake bias as compared to the OEM setup. This will prevent the "nose-dive" effect when street cars are tracked with monstrous front brakes, and no modification to the rears. There are so many brake systems on the market today. Thorough research and first-hand operation of these systems will prove beneficial to your specific appliation. For example, for a drag racer, a two piece floating rotor design for brakes may not be beneficial for his particular type of racing, and may in fact be quite detrimental because of the tramlining and torque steer the 2-piece provides with the driver needs to correct for over positive or over negative pitch when launching to quarter mile finish; in some cases, this may even kill the driver. Whereas, a circuit driving will benefit tremendously from a two-piece floating rotor design because of cornering inertia and chassis flex that contributes to brake fade and ineffective dissipation of heat on conventional rotors. It all depends on your application.

Cheers,
Allen

doubtful, he also lists the engine as vq35 3.6L and doesnt describe what he did to make it 3.6L. Also if it did make the claimed 1700hp it would be more reknown that just hidden away in the corner of the internet. That is built 2jz-gte territory on massive boost, and the vq35 is nowhere near matured enough to achieve those powers yet.

Not for the masses. I've seen/heard of a 1700hp vq35. It certainly wasn't that doofus, though.

Try this on for size

BS. If he was putting down that much power he'd have a hell of a lot wider wheels/tires in the back to keep that thing planted. I do like how the Veilside3 looks on the PPW though.
