I have heard there will be part upgrades so anyone can upgrade there fq300 to 360 or 400. Car looks pretty good, I wonder what size rims those are and brakes specs, probably brembo 6pot F and 3potR. Suspension?

That car is ridiculous. I really love the hood. Also wish my RA, and all the EVOs had a hole where the intake inlet is on the front. That's got to help with some airflow.

Beautiful car, wish they sold those over here.

As far as looks go I like it. However for the $$ I'd want way more than 400hp. I mean why even change the turbo? Or is that just because of emissions? What I'm saying is a car with an exhaust, intercooler, ic piping, intake, and a tune. Probably has more than 400hp(crankwise)

However if you already had a bigger turbo I guess you could just get retuned?.. : )

After a couple of months, perhaps 1-2years the SST will be mastered and it would be able to handle much more power. So perhaps they will make an SST-FQ-400 which will be even faster on the track.

very impressive car...probably just a 20g sized turbo@21lbs(just enough to make that turbo in it's efficiency range) but not enough where a fq400 buyer would be like "i'm running 28lbs of boost, that's just boy racer i'm goint to blow my engine boost" of boost i'm just totally guessing, but i'm sure it's not too far off because at that power level and the person reviewing the car not complaing of lag, it would be plausible.

doubt top gear would make a review - they've already reviewed the fq-360, and already put the fq-300 on the test track.

And.... They reviewed three different Zonda on their track, three different F430's, all they have to do is take off the old one like they always do, but i highly doubt the 400 is faster than the VIII 400 seems too heavy to me.

They always review each model by the way for viewers comparison, and since this is a 100 model car it should be more plausible to review.
