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
zhlédnutí 98KPřed 7 měsíci
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

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. ...

How much faster is our VW Golf GTI Mk5 with these mods? | PH Project Car Pt.5
zhlédnutí 78KPřed 10 měsíci
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 ...

      I have couple of EVs and an R35 GT-R, and it's horses for courses. The Tesla and my Note Nismo are brilliant daily cars, but for fun driving the R35 is definitely superior, it has far more interactivity and feedback and it is much more exciting. The GT-R feels wasted in city driving though, and that's where an EV is by far a better choice.

      This gtr would most likely be low 10s in the quartermile. No way an "average electric family car" would have a chance against it. Most average evs are around the mid 11s. High performance versions like the Plaid definitely would beat it but that's a top spec performance ev.

The S68 engine is an absolute force of nature, it will do 4.3's 0-60 all day. They've improved most of the unintuitive iDrive features with v8.5 so thankfully its much more user-friendly now. Although I will still NEVER understand why BMW removed the cruise control distance setting buttons from the steering wheel and replaced them with NOTHING... could understand if they put something more important there, but to leave them blank is just STUPID

My daily is an Elise S2 1zz and my classic is a Lancia integrale evo2. The mk5 will never go, on the road it will out drag most cars, its incredibly comfortable, handles brilliantly and more than anyone could want. The GTI is the best all round every day car, before the integrale went to a stupid price this was the best everyday car. Not anymore. Buy a good mk5 GTI and you won't want for anything else.
