@aguichris .... If NOT, every supra ;)

[Funguspower2]

Where is Ray's shop located? I got a 1994 vr4 I would seriously like to work on some day after college. What are some of the biggest changes to be done for more speed?

[maggot6460]

@Funguspower2 its in NY google pampena motorsports. and as far as changes it all depends on what you want done. my 600awhp goal can easily be achieved on a stock short block and heads and for less than 6k in parts but like you, college is taking all my money for now. xD

[streetracer4688]

this is why ray is the man. i cant say enough how professional yet down to earth this guy is. he knows everything about these cars and his results are simply amazing.

[GAMEDOG1972]

I was getting ready to see another shitty launch by someone that cant drive, but my hats off to ya. That was beautiful lol.

[aguichris]

killed any supras? lol

[DaBomb31290]

ring tone...

[2camaross2]

lol bet you that 3kgt dosn't do more than 5mpg

[iN3CROo]

1000hp+? hard to believe.

[coupe3kgt]

@iN3CROo

not at all. lots of 3000gts have exceeded the 1000 hp mark at the wheels.

[gotboost001]

that car is freaking fast. i raced him on my crotch rocket after bald hill car show down north ocean. he boggged bad of the line cause he was still tuning it and he past my bike like i was standing still at about 120mph... things no joke...

[GIjoemomma002]

just as a question for any1 that can help. is the 91 good to build the motor on. i dont want a 1000 hp beast but id like to try and get it around 500 maybe 6.

[bskater24]

@GIjoemomma002 I have a '91 with only 80k on it and ray said with bigger turbos,injector, fuel pump, open exhuast, boost controler and a bit of labor you can get 500hp no problem. but i would have Ray P do it. he knows these engines inside and out. i went for a ride in his car, HOLY SHIT that is fast. i bought a '91 stealth R/T TT from his shop a few months later and use it as a daily driver to pick up my kids from day care and school. it helps me save time. HEHE ;)

[GIjoemomma002]

@bskater24 haha bet ypur kids love ridin in your car. im getting a 91 vr4 this summer and it needs the new front half of the exhaust and its having computer issues. im doing the work my self bc my budget is like 0. but after thats done im going to put in 720 injectors and big turbos

[lilmarv08]

@bskater24 Ray also forgot to tell you that 1gen Vr4 engines are only rated up to 400hp before the crank talks a walk..just a little heads up

[dhillskier75]

@GIjoemomma002 only mechanical differences are 91 and 92's use 2 bolt bearings, in 93 they were up'd to 4 bolts. crankshaft became nitride steel instead of cast iron. i know they revamped the head and valvetrain to combat the knocking, but i wanna say they finally got around to that in '99. if you are looking for more power out of your 3kgt, but still want a daily driver every year is fine. it's all 6g72, pretty rock solid engine with fracture split connecting rods. can handle 500bhp any day.

[Inuyasha1771]

@GIjoemomma002

If you build the motor, sure. The 91-93 did NOT have forged cranks, and they tended to be weaker than those WITH forged cranks ( weird right?) but generally, any engine, if you build it and keep it healthy, you can work on it.

[GIjoemomma002]

@Inuyasha1771 thanks for the help

[lilmarv08]

@GIjoemomma002 not 1gens, only 3rd gens are the strongest

[GIjoemomma002]

@lilmarv08 correct me if im wrong but the only difference in them 1st-3rd gen is body styling and a 6 (2nd and 3rd gen) speed tranny. the motor ois the same and makes the msame power if you pull a restrictor out of the intake nipple on the turbo,( look up free boost mod for vr4 on google if your unclear.) so they should all be capable of the same power rightt?

[lilmarv08]

@GIjoemomma002 nah.. the 1g - 3g motors deff dont cant make the same amount of power without crank walk, transfer cases are stronger and can handle more abuse, trannys become stronger 6 speeds, and a couple other small things were changed

[vr4ish]

what do you got in the motor

[bskater24]

@vr4ish Stock motor just 94 octaine. HAHA too much list. Stroker, monster turbo's and everthing else that goes fast.

[vr4ish]

@bskater24 i am planning to build one my self i was going to stroke it as well

i was also going to and bigger fuel pump and injectors

can i get a list of what you did

[chriskart09]

Amazing! Congrats!

[MrHyrican]

I love this car !!!!

[telinkeo]

you need some drag radials for that beast

[bskater24]

the road was wet on that run. it takes a lot of hp to break this GTO loose.

[97EC1IP5E]

wow its stupid fast what is all done to it.....

[gilrod7]

music to my ears. sounds nice!

[bskater24]

tHAT CAR IS CRAZY FAST. it might be getting some bigger turbos. Ray has a "G' meter on his dash. That car can realy put you back in your seat.

[midnitekid92]

yeah didnt see this video before i commented on the last one lol
