And I think that 580hk is not 580 hp ... But I don't remember if it's higher or lower !

Very nice! I like the wheels.
Can someone translate the details please?
I tried translating it on Inter-Tran, but it still doesn't make much sense. I agree, if anyone could translate it more accutately please do.

So no wheels or gearbox, 10k euros...

Yeah HK(hästkraft translates to horsepower) is metric horsepower unit and BHP/HP is usually international unit.

HK=735,49875 watts
HP/BHP=745,7 watts

and

580 horsepower [metric] = 572.0656422 horsepower [international]

So the difference isn't so big. :P

I guess he blew up the tranny? Toss on a T5, maybe a rear axle swap to something that can handle the power *and* turn a corner. I dunno, how long will that engine last making that kind of power? I think he's just trying to sell it before it becomes a cloud of metal fragments.

BTW - I *think* HK numbers are somewhat higher than HP numbers.
*google*
1 hk (metric horse power) = 0,735499 kW = 75,00 kpm/s = 632,5 kcal/h = 2510 Btu/h = 0,9863 hp

SO that 580 HK is "only" 572 HP. :roll:
:-P

How much is 100,000 Kroner? Like is it the equivelent of what might be in my couch?

[JohnMc]

According to xe.com:
100,000.00 SEK Sweden Kronor = 14,508.26 USD United States Dollars

A couple of years ago that would have been about $10,000. The falling US dollar has turned Swedish goods from being a bargain to US residents into being a bit pricey.

Has anyone actually seen a GT42 in person? If not, I'll explain. Its the size of a medium dinner plate, and it weighs about 50 lbs. Thats rediculous. Gotta love those crazy europeans!

Was that the one at slowboyracing? More heft than a 245 in GT4!

i browsed, and i found this added to the bottom on the tpc site:



<i>Just nu sitter det en EJ fungerande TH400 turboclutch låda med manuellt ventilhus i bilen.
Har haft den på renovering 2 gånger, men hinner knappt backa upp från garaget innan någon växelhänger sig eller den börjar läcka olja!
Så centrumet på den 3-skiviga kopplingen passar på den lådan,
men går givetvis att nita om!

Om jag inte får bilen såld, tänker jag antingen hänga dit en vanlig getrag eller köra helautomat! </i>

<b>

right now, there's a NON-functioning TH400 turboclutch tranny w/ manual valve body mounted in the car. It's been rebuilt twice, but it seems like i can't pull out of the driveway before it gets stuck in gear or springs a leak!
the center section of the triple plate clutch fits to the TH400, but that can easily be re-riveted to fit something else.

if i can't get the car sold, i'll either throw a getrag in there or just go fully automatic.
