You people are crazy.

2jz is an awesome engine. Much better than 98% of the other engines suggested in this thread.

I agree it's heavy, but things can be adjusted to fix that, I'm sure he's not going to leave it all stock suspension.

 

I had no idea Supra Turbos put out so much power...

Good luck on your swap!

 

sorry for diasspointing you guys, i was very busy over the week because of my finals, and friday i forgot to visit the shop, i will be posting pics on monday or tuesday for sure

 

the r34 engine is great, but cost and availability was the issue.

 

STI motor over the 2JZGTE motor are you kidding me

 

Too bad it's always only peak power and never a nice high average.

 

^ i've seen a few ~400whp 2jz's have a powerband surprisingly similar to a 13b, just a tad more torque below 4kish.

 

but he's not talking about a 400whp 2jz. He's talking about a 1000whp 2jz

 

and assuming you pulled 1k hp from a 13b, what do you think the powerband would look like?

 

OKAY OKAY OKAY

we get what your doing but what about the cost???? how much did u get the 8 or what was left of it for? motor cost? labor cost? a side by side comparison of cost and power of your frankenstein machine against an 8 and it's cost. then if it plays out then you'd be a visionary but if this end;s up costing 50K+ and turn to a pos freak car then we'll laugh but all in all good luck very interesting idea.

 

i'd hit up that gm 4.2 motor. it'll out-torque the 2jz by far.

 

Here in Puerto Rico you can find a Nissan 240 sx with a GM 4.2 Lt I6 Turbo making 1200 + Rwhp outperforming the supras 2jtz on the tracks and streets for every day.

 

do tell me more, my nipples are getting hard

actually, i'd tune it up to about 500/500 or so for street use on pump gas. that'd be plenty good for me.

 

Here's the nissan guys they are to start to swap a GM 4.2 lt i6 with turbos with goods horsepower numbers beating the RB26's And 2jtz on the streets on pump gas making over 675 RWHP and 1200+ On the tracks with race gas , i seen a 240 sx making on the dyno 675 RWHP with 15 PSI of boost the potential of this engine is good with a custom cams shaft grinds and little porting jobs , goods valve springs, they are making some trials and error with this engine but i 'm very impressed with power that's this engine can make....

 

no replacement for displacement

are the guys keeping the variable cam timing with them?

 

They are using a haltech E 11 Ecu they use a pulse widthed modulated output from the ecu remenber this mechanims is operated by electric solenoid valve. Yes it's replacement for displacement but this engine is a realy piece of beauty of engineering..

 

4.2L isn't a small engine. i was comparing its displacement to the 2jz.

 

my friend has a 1395hp supra... (no joke)... and he is running 8.9's..... fukn rich bastard...heh

im not sure how he is doing it.. but its at 45 psi

 

oh yea, i daily drive a 3400# 160 hp dodge with a/c.

you don't want nonna dis!

 

The nice thing about drag racing is that with certain ecu's now such as the Haltech, they have a launch control feature. It retards the timing pretty far at idle which causes alot of the fuel to burn in the exhaust. This spools the turbo up without a load. That's the only wy those guys get moving off the line so quickly now. This technique is great for racing but is incredibly hard on the turbo. Before that tuning technique, none of those guys were all that impressive for their power output.

 

that's why inconel roxors

 

Fifth stroke anybody?? LoL.

Great for spooling, but will kill a turbo in no time when it burns all that gas right there.

 

The same anti-lag is used on the WRC cars. http://www.rallycars.com/Cars/bangbang.html

 

So who is gonna be the first to drop an LS1 into an rx-8?

 

dunno, but i'm working on squeezing a cosmo with a t70 in one
