So yesterday I was watching Teckademics "Mischief 3000" vid, its about guys racing from NY to CALI in 5 days.
Anyway one of them was driving 700 HP R34 Skyline with F-15 fighter jet fuel pump, so my question is,
Is this even possible???
(he had 3 fuel tanks too...)

Nope, someone was on crack. Those are hydraulically driven and designed to flow anywhere from 3,000 to 80,000 pounds per hour (big frickin pipes).

Those Teckademics guys are the biggest a-holes.... They screwed up our meet site out here and were ****ty to little kids asking questions about their cars.

yeha i have the dvd

its a british guy's car. They just met at a gas station and asked about the car.

He did say that it had an F-15 fuel pump in it

There is no way in hell it would have an F-15 fuel pump. It would probably cost as much as the car itself. It's also an R33, not an R34.

I believe you that he said it, he's just toking crack. I work with F-15 maintainers. Minimum flow rate for those pumps is 1000lbs/hr, max is >40,000lbs/hr. Its like using a fire hydrant for a drinking fountain. Plus, it's really freakin huge.

I was wrong in one respect, it is electrically driven, not hydraulically. Honestly, I'd have to see a pic and get a part number off the pump. You could put it in there...if you're using 6-inch fuel lines. Otherwise, this guy (on the video) doesn't have a freaking clue.

Well hes got a huge box sticking from bottom of his car, and then when he refuels his car he puts something weird in it...

Most of those people are ******, and full of ****. He just wanted people to say "WOW"

RaDZio

****** maybe....but with a lot of $$$, SO they buy whatever they want( except the guy at the end of the vid, which said that his mustang is ROTARY!!!!!!! what a dumbass )

JP4, JP8, Jet A? If that's what he's saying then he's got a diesel skyline. Those jet fuels are kerosene based.
