Valves covers have been painted in brilliant red, instead of black which was put on them in last generations. Were also new turbo. Specially for this car new, stronger 6-step transmission GETRAG has been designed. On models V-spec there were temperature gages supercharger On R34 GT-R it was established 5.8"LCD the display, allowing to look through such parameters, as pressure of turbo-supercharging s, temperature of oil and cooling liquid, and for V-spec, also the schedule of longitudinal both cross-section accelerations and circle time in ring races.

Also, as well as generation R33, new models R34 GT-R V-spec were equipped ATTESA E-TS Pro system, but on standard GT-R systems "Pro" weren't established. Versions V-spec have received steadier suspension bracket and the underestimated landing.

Ford GT40 — the sports car, the 4-fold winner 24 hours of Le Mans with 1966 for 1969 (though in 1967 with other body). It have specially developed for victories in races on distant distances against Ferrari (which won Le Mans six consecutive times with 1960 on 1965). GT40 GT-40P 1075 was the first car which has won a victory in Le Mans twice (1968 and 1969); this car used engine Gurney Weslake from a special alloy. A motor vehicle named GT (abbr. from Gran Turismo) and have added 40 that designates its full height in 40 inches (1.02 m together with a windscreen) as that is demanded by a rule. Engines of Ford V8 of great volume (4.7 l and 7), in comparison with Ferrari V12, volume 3.0 l or 4.0 l were used.

Early cars were called simply "Ford GT". "GT40" – so the project on preparation of cars for the international race on endurance was called, and Ford very much wanted to win 24 Hours of Le Mans. First 12 "prototypes" had serial numbers with GT-101 on GT-112.

"Manufacture" and the subsequent cars, MkI, MkII, MkIII and MkV has begun, were numbered from GT40-P-1000 to GT40-P-1145, and already officially were "GT40". The name of the project of Ford and serial numbers disseminate hearings that "GT40" was ostensibly "only a nickname".

Chevrolet Camaro

For creation Camaro, engineers of Chevrolet took for a basis of the chassis of compact model Nova and have equipped with its body in fashionable style - with a long cowl and the truncated luggage carrier. For a new youth car have offered checked up by time "six" and new V8 in volume of 350 cubic inches, AKKP with three steps and 4 or 5-speed "mechanics". Package RS introduced only cosmetic changes: the black lattice hiding headlights, the changed back lanterns, the changed salon and shields «RS». For enthusiasts package SS which already in base offered 350-cyb engine V8 capacity of 295 h.p. has been presented updatings SS-396 with 396-kubovym the motor capacity of 325 and 375 forces Were accessible. Outwardly the car differed the special strip banding a nose, false air inlets on a cowl and a black lattice. Both packages could be ordered together and then version RS/SS Camaro turned out. Popularity to the car was added by participation in race Indianapolis 500 as the judicial car.

In 1968 Camaro has changed a little: the lattice of a radiator drowned in a body and a headlight, slightly changed plasticity of boards and new breed of an upholstery of seats. Version SS-396 had chromeplated elements on a cowl, and SS-350 and at all remained last year's. New 350-strong engine V8 in volume of 396 cubes became accessible to SS-versions, and Z/28 now were completed shields «z/28». In 1969 year the model has been again slightly redesigned, has received "brawny" sides, longer back headlights, many panels including in salon, have been replaced. Updating z/28 on the former was completed 302-kubovym with the engine. Version SS was completed with 350th block capacity of 300 h.p. but as were 396 engines capacity from 325 to 375 h.p. More powerful Camaro are accessible it is possible was to get at dealers of Chevrolet. Don Jenko and its firm Yenko Sports Cars was the leader in installation "big blocks" in compact "ponies-penalties", certainly. Yenko ordered the motor in volume of 427 cubic inches and established it in the car. Then changed a capacity rating for more realistic of 450 h.p., added to a car 15-inch disks, a skeleton of safety and shields «sYc» - a company abbreviation.
In spite of the fact that sceptics spoke about disappearance Pony and Muscle Cars and as decline of manufacture and low sales, Chevrolet nevertheless has dared to present updated Camaro. The big money resources have gone on creation of the new "Europeanized" shape of the car which has appeared so successful and popular that has existed till 1982. Henk Haga and Lerri of the Synod who has developed well-known Corvette Marko Shark were engaged in design of a body. For giving of individuality the car has received only two headlights, instead of four as was then it is accepted. The model still was based on chassis Nova, but has been extended on 2 inches and has received doors more long on 5 inches, than at model of the first generation. New Camaro it was accessible only in a compartment body, the cabriolet of the second generation officially wasn't offered. Base was the six-cylinder engine in volume of 250 cubic inches, only 155 h.p. of Updating SS continued to complete with capacity 350 and 396 blocks. In 1971 year design Camaro hasn't changed, but as GM has published the decree that all engines of the company should work on unleaded fuel compression degree should be reduced.

In 1972 year laws, including concern GM have become tougher. More than 1000 copies Camaro were late at factory in Ohio, as safety not corresponding to new standards. Design besides practically didn't change - the lattice of the radiator which has received 7 vertical laths instead of previous 12 has changed. The big news in 1973 year was that version SS any more wasn't offered and wasn't made. As 396 blocks in volume 402 cubes have disappeared. Updating Z/28 had 245-strong V8 volume of 350 cubic inches. In 1974 year Camaro restyled because of the governmental law on strong bumpers. The car has got thick aluminum bumpers. In 1975 year of Chevrolet has ceased to let out updatings Z/28 as capacity of engines promptly decreased, and its existence was senseless. Further every year there were little changes in design, then in 1977 year there was again updating Z/28 with 350-kubovym engine V8 capacity of 185 forces. Sales grew every year as competitors doesn't remain. The second generation has existed till 1982 year when the third has been presented, different by new angular design.


  

 

Bugatti Veyron

The history of creation a super-penalty has begun with demonstration on the Tokyo Motor show of 1999 of conceptual car EB 18/3 «Chiron» with the 6,3-liter 555-strong motor constructed under formula W18 with three blocks on 6 cylinders. The design concept car was developed by the Italian studio ItalDesign Dzhorzhetto Dzhudzharo (Giorgetto Giugiaro).
The first attempt was far from an ideal of the sports supercar what wanted to see Bugatti chairman of the board VW Ferdinand Peh (Ferdinand Karl Piech). The car had rather weak, bulky engine, and appearance was more likely magnificent, than is sports.
On the Geneva Motor show of 2001 at the stand of Bugatti Automobiles S. A.S. Already pre-series sample under a new name of Bugatti EB 16/4 Veyron has been exposed. The car not only has replaced a name, everything was new practically, from the engine consisting of two V-shaped blocks on eight cylinders (only four blocks, on 4 cylinders in everyone) and to the fascinating sports body completely developed on Volkswagen Helmut's Warkus's(Hartmut Warkuss).
The beginning of a batch production of new model planned for 2003, however a number of circumstances has considerably changed terms. Ferdinand Pyekha on a post of the chairman of group Volkswagen was replaced by Bernd Pishetsrider (Bernd Pischetsrieder), and in December 2003
Thomas Bsher became the president of Bugatti (Thomas Bscher), having replaced Charles-Hajntsa Nojmana. Despite personnel shifts, works on the project didn't stop and in September, 2005 from gate of again constructed factory in Molshajme, an old patrimonial nest of Bugatti, there were first serial Bugattis Veyron 16.4.
The car, which total amount of release won't exceed 300 copies, there is 1 million euro and possesses following characteristics: the Volume of engine W16 with four turbo makes 7993 sm3. The gazoraspredelitelnyj mechanism consists of 4 cam-shafts and 64 valves. Capacity of the engine by different estimations makes from 1020 — 1040 h.p. (VW) to 1006 — 1026 h.p. (SAE). In order to avoid misunderstanding, Bugatti Automobiles S. A.S. Declared capacity of the engine of equal 1001 horsepowers. The maximum twisting moment makes 1250 Nanometers and through two-disk coupling and muff Haldex is transferred to all four wheels. A transmission established in the car — seven-step, switchings are carried out suspension. Transition to each subsequent transfer occupies 0,2 seconds
The maximum speed of Bugatti Veyron established during official tests on line Ehra-Lessien has made 407 kilometers per hour, time of dispersal to 100 km/h makes 2,5 seconds, to 200 km/h — 7,3, and to 300 — 16,7 seconds.
These achievements do by Bugatti Veyron not only the fastest car, but also the most dynamical serial car in the history. It also wins first place on fuel consumption, spending at completely open throttle 125 liters for 100 kilometers of a way. The actual expense makes in a city cycle of 40,4 liters, in mixed — 24,1, and on highway — 14,7 liters on 100 kilometers.Speed limit at everyday use makes 377 kilometers per hour. At achievement by the car of a mark of 220 km/h the hydraulics lowers the car before achievement of a road clearance of 8,9 sm and simultaneously from a back part of the case the rear wing rises, providing necessary clamping force. To develop the maximum speed, the driver by means of a special key should activate a high-speed mode of movement which, by the way, is limited by electronics at level of 407 km/h, in order to avoid premature deterioration of tires.
On Bugatti Veyron stand unique ventilated brake disks and v8 supports. On speeds over 200 km/h, at braking, the rear wing acting in a role of an aerodynamic brake will be involved. Time of a turn of a wing to a corner of 70 degrees makes 0,4 seconds after the braking beginning. Time which is required to the car rushing with the maximum speed for a full stop, makes 10 seconds, and Bugatti Veyron isn't displaced at braking from a rectilinear trajectory even if the driver will release a steering wheel.
