V6 Swap = cool
Ruining a genuine Type R = not cool.

:drool: That F40 is so much sex. Would you happen to know if there are any wallpaper-size images?
Sadly, Bingo-sports does not have any wallpapers which is a shame, because they use a very nice setup when taking pictures of their cars for sale.

Or at least, they used to. Now, most of their cars for sale have their shots taken in front of the Tokyo dealer. However, here's a nice import I haven't seen them put up before.

That would be the closest thing. 4 valves per cylinder, 3 carburettors and 2 camshafts, hence 432-moniker. That one is for sale for mere 90 thousand dollars if memory serves.
 
That 240z is awesome. And sorry I don't have any other photos of the Porsche the comments where I found the photo state that it's putting out some 750+ bhp though.


So I looked up this Bingo-Sport and wow...

Can't really say I like it as much as the silver F40 but still :drool:

"They're sand dune hillclimb cars from the Moreeb hillclimb.

We may have F1 races at Yas Marina and whatnot but there's only really three things that the local arab dudes really care about: insane power, sand dunes and being the quickest up the hill. No limits at all, no expense spared. Car just has to last about 9 seconds.

Moreeb is the biggest dunefest there is, so dudes build the sickest possible cars they can. Then they basically drag race one at a time up a huge dune and the fastest time wins.

Most popular powerplants are either supercharged top fuel V8s or insanely built and turboed 2JZs and RBs. 800 horsepower and up.

Somewhere around half or more of the cars simply blow up though ;D"

"This car was prepared for a bicycle record in Wolfburg highspeed track. Unfortunately the tyre from the rear wheel came off at a speed about 100 km/h. The driver managed to stop the bicycle unhurt. The cab on the 935 was saved for another test but it never happened." From info for a die cast model of the car: "Now lets face it, 150mph is pretty scary in a car, let alone on a bicycle! That is the speed that Jean Claude Rude attempted to achieve in 1979. The main aim, however, was to break the world bicycle speed record which stood at a staggering 127mph. This record was set in 1962 by Jose Meiffret. Unfortunately Rude didn’t break the record; his tyres exploded at 105mph! This is quite an unusual subject for a 1:43 diecast model, but Spark is a company that’s never been afraid to be different. The model, complete with Rude on his bicycle, features the heavily modified Porsche 935 which was driven by Le Mans legend and former F1 driver Henri Pescarolo. The rear of the Porsche was specially modified so Rude could draft behind it, decreasing the aerodynamic drag on the bike to almost nothing. This is known as motor pacing. Incredibly, the current motor pacing record stands at 167mph!"
