Definitely a Cerb, slightly modified chassis, Cerb body with later headlight mod, Kirkey seats inside and proper roll cage. RB26 engine which they expect to be pushing out 650bhp, with 4WD gear.
They also have the stuff up at Zs to make their own manifolds and exhausts, so I'm sure that won't be too much of a problem.
Last I heard it was close to completion.

I was wondering if 4wd could be done yesterday whilst driving back in the pissing rain from Exeter on Monday.
I know it would be a crime to remove the AJP, but wouldn't RS4 engine and running gear be interesting.
You can already buy cars like this, I think they're made by Audi and called, errmm..Oh yeah, RS4.I know it would be a crime to remove the AJP, but wouldn't RS4 engine and running gear be interesting.

Not sure if I am impressed.....?
Seems to be a lot of money and finger crossing?
Hope it does run well, handle well etc....?
well it'll probably be like the skyline, but incredibly lighter. 800 HP with no weight, despite 4WD it will be a handful!Seems to be a lot of money and finger crossing?

i've been in a few Datsuns with that kin of power, and to be honest, it looks like a big single so they'll be some lag. but hilarious to watch and hear!

very true...
does someone have a picture of this cerbera.. For me its a fascinating project...
tvr were not allowed to evolve .. if we imagine tvr 10 years into the future they may well have taken the 4wd route..
the cerb was particularly futuristic for 1996 and if you look at the evolution of porsche and ferrari early ferraris were very poorly built but ferrari were given time and money to evolve to where they are today.

I watched The Fast & the Furious Tokyo Drift bks, or whatever it was called, the other night and coincidentally they came up with an equally strange concoction, they put a Skyline engine in a classic 60s fastback mustang shell for the grand finale race up Mount Fuji!
