Jesus does that thing ever rev fast...

[archaeic_bloke]

I asked if he had a full counter crank.. apparently its a mostly stock motor!!!

[M13]

light flywheel and balancer will do that.

[archaeic_bloke]

like a harmonic balancer???? no wayy?

I have a aluminum pressure plate and chromoly light weight flywheel my engine doesnt rev like that. There's something changed with that more and it sounds insane... maybe its NA no turbo, thats the only thing that makes sense.

n/a doesn't even rev that fast i don't think....video could be sped up, never know.

in the comments section below the post, I asked him about how they did that, heres what he said:

The carbon driveshaft, which this car does actually have, does not play into just a static rev. The static rev is all about weight attached to the crankshaft.

The rods, pistons, and crank are stock, and stock weights.

This R34 was pretty light as far as R34's go. I got it down to as light as 2997 lbs dry. Lexan, carbon fiber, fiberglass, floating rotors front and rear. Even on the 18 x 11 - 305 tires all around.
