D Sport Mag, May issue I believe had a Zee with similar build that hit 769. I can understand building a motor with that kind of power if its a track/strip race vehicle, but for the street or daily driver, what does one do with all them horsies, besides burn up rear tires?

Next, you all wanted to know why iru Tien SRC's? Well maybe you can challenge Shaif's thoughts on that since that was his recommendation.
Everyone thinks they know what they are talking about yet don't have **** for experience. You know what that means? It means you are ignorant!

Why do you assume everyone has no experience??
I asked about the greddy brakes because there is extremely limited pads available for that application which doesnt seem an optimal choice for a track car different compounds will be needed for optimal results.
And on the coilovers I would actually actually like Sharif to chime in on why he would recommend that coilover for a track only application for a car setting out to break time attack records.
I would think a higher end coilover would be a much better choice,
or why not run 3-4 way moton, penski, or JRZ shocks...?? Then custom spring rates to match up with them??
Hats off too you if you accomplish your goals and are good on the track but with the specs of your build your claims to go out and set records seems quite ludicrous.

You are going to run this in street tire class 
. I wouldn't want spring rates that stiff for a 140+ treadwear car. NO chance of planting any significant (600+whp) on street tires in an efficient manor. S2k's get away with it to a certain degree simply due to low weight. Your car will not be light.
Stay classy

.We are thinking about running street tire a couple times and make podium so we can get other sponsors, especially on tires.
When we go to modified we will use Hoosier R6's. I tested them out at Sebring Internation last year after we put the coilovers and Stoptech BBK on and they were incredible.
What everyone that seems to "think" they know what they are talking about needs to realize is that none of you have the experience or knowledge of this type of build nor does anyone on the VQ35HR motor so "HOW" can anyone come in here nay saying what it will or won't do? Even myself said we are shooting to break 1,200rwhp, not that we will, but that we are trying and are confident the motor can handle it.
Boost will probably be our limitation and we already made the decision that if it is, we will go with larger turbine wheels to match the larger compressor wheels we put in.
At the end of the day, it seems everyone likes to be an e-thug but while you all are doing that, I am actually doing something meaningful with my life.

So what is the point of building the motor to be the highest HP non dedicated drag car to not use any of it??
I understand overbuilding for a higher threshold and reliability... but by 400-600hp buffer??

We run 16kg springs all the way around. We will not know what works best for the car until we have it on the track with this power and weight reduction.

When we go to modified we will use Hoosier R6's. I tested them out at Sebring Internation last year after we put the coilovers and Stoptech BBK on and they were incredible.

You are correct I misremembered what you had typed and thought you ment you would hold track records.
So what is the point of building the motor to be the highest HP non dedicated drag car to not use any of it??
I understand overbuilding for a higher threshold and reliability... but by 400-600hp buffer??

You are correct, we are building it bigger for reliability but due to the way we are building it, the only thing we spent "extra" to try and hit the big number was larger compressor wheels in the turbo's. All the other stuff we were doing anyway.
