That looks insane, quite an impressive toy.

You need to do some more videos

[JollyGrnMonster]

Absolutely bonkers, I love it. Especially love the fact it has a 6 pot engine too. You sir, are a legend! More videos ASAP please.

Could you also provide some detail about what you've done to the gearbox/drive chain/brakes?

gearbox is a 6spd wr1 box with dccd and the longer gearing from a forester but basically an oe 6speed box, rear diff has a Kazz in and the rear shafts are uprated.

brakes are currently 8pot Ksport fronts and 4pot ksport rears but I have a set of AP6 pots also.

Fantastic! Thanks for the info. Amazing for basically a standard box. Are these boxes known to take such power reliably? Jamie-p's supra is the biggest shock. 1290+ bhp through a standard box. The engineer who designed that deserves many pats on the back!

Comically strong seems to be what Gertrac do.

Don't forget it torque that breaks boxes not power! Would be interesting to see how well a supra box would take 1000lbsft + of torque. Not saying they aren't good boxes.
