Nissan GT-R LM20: better with 800hp? | PistonHeads
Litchfield is known for building R35 Nissan GT-Rs with well over 1,000hp, which is why the 675hp for the original LM20 seemed a bit tame. How does it cope with 800hp? And is this the car the LM20 should have been all along?
A huge thank you to the seller of this LM20 for allowing us to film their car.

Frontline MG B LE60 review: V8 restomod heaven | PistonHeads
Просмотров 100 тыс.8 месяцев назад
Frontline has been working its magic on the MG B since 1991, but never before has it produced a limited edition restomod gem quite like this one. To celebrate 60 years of the beautiful B in 2023, the LE60 cranks the dial even further: more power from the Rover V8 (380hp), more attitude to the design, a more capable chassis than ever before and a more beautiful interior, too. This Frontline LE60...
Can a modded Mk5 Golf GTI beat a Mk8 Golf R? | PH Project Car Pt.6
Просмотров 88 тыс.10 месяцев назад
The moment of truth. Now brimming with engine and chassis upgrades, can we get anywhere near a £50,000 Golf R 20 Years edition around a circuit? After pitting the stock cars against each other in episode 2, and our GTI coming in 5.5 seconds slower, we head to Curborough Sprint Course to see if PH Project Car has closed the gap. It's now running semi-slick tyres, adjustable suspension, beefier b...

The PH audience voted for the Toyota GR Yaris, Lotus Elise S1, BMW M5 E39, Caterham 620R and Porsche Carrera GT as the best performance cars since 1998 - but there can only be one winner. To do that, we needed to bring the winners of the best sports car, hot hatch, saloon, track car and supercar since 1998 together in an epic showdown, with Snowdonia serving as the stage for our series finale. ...

Join Porsche's Head of GT Cars, Andreas Preuninger, and Matt for an all-you-need-to-know look at the stunning new 911 S/T. Created to celebrate 60 years of the 911 and 75 years of Porsches, the S/T is designed as the ultimate 911 for road driving, combining the 525hp, 9,000rpm 4.0-litre engine of the GT3 RS with the Touring body and reduced track focus. Oh yes, plus a six-speed manual with ligh...
How much faster is our VW Golf GTI Mk5 with these mods? | PH Project Car Pt.5
Просмотров 81 тыс.10 месяцев назад
Our Golf GTI is as grippy as it gets in the corners, but needs more grunt on the straights to match the Golf R. Time to address that... The temptation at the start of any project is to jump straight into power mods, but doing so without at least looking into brake, tyre and suspension upgrades could be a recipe for, in the GTI’s case, armfuls of understeer. We’ve done all of that now, and have ...
Porsche Carrera GT: the best supercar of the last 25 years | PistonHeads

There have been many truly great supercars launched since 1998, but who could resist the one with both a naturally aspirated F1 engine and a clutch pedal? An amalgam of two aborted motorsport projects and essentially built in secret, the Carrera GT Type 980 was probably always destined for greatness. It was the first production car to feature a carbon fibre-reinforced plastic monocoque chassis,...

2023 BMW M2 vs M3 CSL (E46) | PistonHeads

The BMW M2 represents the end of an era - it's the final new M car to launch without any form of electrification. A pretty big deal, then, given BMW's legendary history when it comes to combustion engines. And speaking of legends... The E46 M3 CSL isn't an M2 alternative, but is another end of an era M car. Back in 2003, it was the most powerful atmospheric straight-six BMW, with 360hp - and no...

The Caterham Seven 620R has been voted the best track car of the past 25 years by PHers.

Ultimately, nothing could deny the E39 M5 from its rightful place on the PH saloon throne - but one came mighty close... A lot has naturally changed over the last quarter of a century.

    I still disagree on every front. the hypocrisy to compare it against GT-R's and Turbo S to then turn around and say it isn't sporty because it's not on its own chassis is wild. beautiful car, low, fast, precise coupe, if that's not enough for you, then this car was not made for you. To me this is one of my all time favorite vehicles.

    The 991.2 vs 992 GT3 performance isn't "nearly identical performance", at least per Ring times. 992 is 12 seconds faster than 991.2. I've had both 991.2 and 992 and aside from the engine, the feel is totally different when pushed. I didn't think 991.2 GT3 could be improved anymore, but 992 GT3 is a HUGE improvement, I don't miss the 991.2 in slightest. I'm absolutely smitten with the 992 GT3.

    Just seen a couple of reviews of these cars and what strikes me is how the testers overlook so many obvious issues. Maybe the sound of a raucous V8 and nice finish makes them forget to ask questions. It seems to me an opportunity lost by the manufacturers. Firstly these are newly constructed vehicles not restomods of a classic vehicle so there are going to be issues in regard to registration in many countries. Next is the choice of engine with a design that goes back to Buick and Oldsmobile circa 1962. The only plus is it is light weight. If you want to know the cons find Smokey Yunicks discussion on these engines. It’s great they replaced the leaf springs with a 5 link and coil overs. However, the smoke and mirrors are obvious when it comes to the front suspension. Yep it appears that a £230k “restomod” still has kingpins dating back to its 1950s design. So they like to discuss V8s, leather, strangely restyled front and rear body treatments that don’t really blend with the original style. I would like to know about front and rear suspension, torsional rigidity and the addition of all that weight. Maybe they could have used some of money used on the engine to deal with these issues. If you want a fast well developed MBG there are many ways to do this at half the price.

    Start with the Pirelli edition GTI, and with a well-set-up LSD, Bilstein coil-overs which have been properly set up for the car and course, the appropriate bracing good well-set-up bushings and a proper wheel alignment / set up along with the obvious well-tuned stage 2+ kit with a set of larger rotors with a set of the appropriate Pagid brake pads and fluid I'll put my money on a stock Golf 8 being left in the GTI,s dust. The GTI doesn't have the same mechanical grip out of slow corners as the R but it's considerably lighter.
