Default Typhoon's for Export

Nizpro are currently building two brand new F6 Typhoons for export to the UK. These vehicles will be leaving in May to hit the streets and tracks of Europe with the purpose of being demonstration cars for a locally based company planning to export a small quantity of these per year.

The F6's start life as a standard base Typhoon, we then remove the engines, gearboxes, diffs, brakes, suspensions and interiors. The engines get our Stage 3 kit that includes Nizpro design pistons, connecting rods, oil pumps, main cap girdles in the short list. They are balanced blueprinted and reassembled.

Turbo wise the standard one is removed and we fit our Stage 4 turbo system which includes tuned length stainless steel extractors, external waste gate, 90mm dump pipe and separate 50mm wastegate pipe.

The engine also receives our Stage 2 Cobra plus kit with a twin 64mm exhaust system and fuel pump system. We also add a high capacity radiator and ducting.

The gearboxes and differentials are modified to allow for oil coolers, along with a clutch upgrade.

The base 4 piston front and single piston rear brakes are replaced with 6 piston AP Racing front and 4 piston rears with massive 365mm front rotors, along with braided lines.

The shocks and springs are replaced with adjustable coil overs of our own spring and damper rates, along with a wheel alignment again with our own set up is added.

The interiors are completely re-trimmed in Connelly leather including door inserts and centra consul lid.

The Ford fuel systems standard in tank pump is replaced with our newly designed CNC billet machined units comprising of a 5 litre per minute fuel pump, alloy baffle system and anti surge foam blocks. This system now allows running fuel levels at less than quarter of a tank, without fuel surge.

Performance will now exceed the best power and torque figures for any 4 door saloon in the world, with a comfortable 400 plus rear wheel kW's and still leaving plenty of room for further mods for the local tuners OS.

We believe these cars be road tested on TV programs that you may already be familiar with although it is still a little early to confirm. I will let you know as progress develops.

This project is very exciting for Nizpro and has a large implication for our future direction.







I cant wait for Jeremy Clarkson to rip it up in one of these!!!!!!!!!

Why can't we mention Nizpro on this thread ?
There is not "advertising" only a good news story that some FPV's will be in pommyland very soon and show the Euros what a real muscle car will do.
Good work for an aussie company selling OS

Because they're not forum sponsors I guess. Anything related to Nizpro seems to get closed very quickly.

Excellent to see some Falcons getting exported, even if it has nothing to do with Ford.

What is this rubbish, are trying to draw attention to your thread by witting this all this has done is detracted from the information in your thread and now we are talking about this and not about the cars.
Take a look through the xr6t/f6 Forum do a search, Nizrpo is probably the most talked about turbo performance workshop in this Forum.
What we do object too is people spamming this site with advertising, we make no apologies for that.
Sponsors support this site so we support the sponsors, if Nizpro wish to support this site like others in the industry do ask them to contact me or Admin and like all companies it will be considered,
to date (2 1/2 years) no one from Nizpro hasn't even made an inquiry.

Stevo if you have a problem or an issue send me or Admin a PM.

Perhaps comments like this are best kept to PM, as this has done nothing to help put the thread back on track.

I've seen myself in the past 1 or 2 years posts relating to Nizpro in any way (whether they be advertising or not - usually not) have been deleted, majority of the time I think it's quite unfair.

Anyway - this thread was created in regards to the typhoons, best we keep it on topic!

I think this is absolutely awesome, a huge deal. Would love to see some more pics!

Has Stevo kept his problem to PM, you have now done the same thing.
Both of you have now put this sites integrity in question and I will respond to that.
Anyone who wants to advertise on this site will have to help support the site as other good business’s in the industry have done, our rates for a whole year would be less than one half page magazine add for 1 issue.

Now we can move back to the car talk..

Just had to get in the last word? Unfair! I understand you're more than likely talking about the thread I posted up in regards to the Nizpro National Dyno Day (which you removed), which one of your site sponsors (KPM MOTORSPORTS) is actually involved in.

Regardless, I think it's fantastic that there are some awesome fords being exported overseas! I guess Nizpro are doing well enough without advertising on AFF!

How awesome would it be if they made it on Top Gear!

OK we want to keep this going I am going to shut this one down, it was a cut and paste advert from there site for a dyno day, it wasnt a KPM dyno day...
KPM are free to advertise there events in there Forum as they wish..
Is everybody free advertise and post links on the Nizpro forums I don't think so..

There are PM's on the way to some in this thread.

For those who think there is a bias on this forum, I suggest that you do your own search. There are 401 threads that mention Nizpro in some form or other, 6 of which have been deleted - 2 of which concerned their National Dyno Day which is an event we will not be supporting, 3 were blatant advertising and a breach of site T&C and 1 developed into a bun fight between the pro and anti Nizpro groups.

There was no need for the thread to be started in the manner it was and I'm disappointed that people choose to see bias simply because their own agenda is not being met.

The thread will stay open, I will be editing the opening post to add the name of the people who developed these fine vehicles and any further suggestions of bias in this thread will lead to a 24 hour ban. If you have an issue then PM me.

about time someone exported the typhoon, why ford wont pull their finger out & do these things instead of leaving it to others beats me, maybe they believe the BS that they arn't good enough so don't.
would be great to see what top gear say (if they get it) but we wont see it for ages

LOL @ Falcon being in Bugatti Veyron league. Seriously guys, have a look at the acceleration stats for the Veyron, it's faster than an F1 car, it takes more than lots of power to make a car fast.
