remember correctly, vinnie is supposed to have his own performance shop with dyno in NYC area somewhere? If so, why would he need to come to Sal's shop? I have no personal knowledge, but many say bad things about his business practices on Supraforums. The Supra tuners paralell to L are sound Performance (chicago), Powerhouse Racing ( Texas), Toyomoto(Florida), and Titan (Florida). Just curious about why vinnie used Sal's shop?

 

I use a local Mustang shops dyno for all my tuning, and Vinny uses it also from time to time. This shops dyno is used by a lot of big name people, and I've met some really great other tuners there, like Job Spetter Jr for example. It's cool to chat tuning with other people who do different vehicles, you never know when you will pick up a new usefull piece of info.

 

It's a skyline.

 

Here's something for everyone to ponder,how much do you think (if any)power is lost from the car lunging like it does during the pull???do you think the numbers would be higher if the car was strapped down tighter??

 

In one site i read that the rear of an awd car will lift when on the 4 wheel dyno. I went on that site and in a couple of pictures they had people sitting in the hatch of a supra but that's rwd. Don't know but i would not want to race him at the strip for doung.

I've seen Vinnie run at MIR a couple times a couple years ago and his car is fast as *****. He has a gen 1 runnin 10's too if i'm not mistaken. He won his class on race day a few years back and received his $200 to the winner and was so pissed he slammed his trophy on the ground in front of track sponsors cause the payout sucked so bad. Huh you figured he woulda known that before he made the venture from NY.

 

thats better than Paisley's...............

 

Kinda like the Hennesey of the Supra world.

 

Wow that does sound pretty bad @$$ and real nice numbers.

 

852.9kW = 1144hp. If you read their story...there is still room for much more.

Yes, it is a Skyline, a R33 GT-R.
