Star_V8_Quest Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 fully blown v8 with a blower and traction...if you wanna go fast....make it go fast why tinker with turbos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashsaudio Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 fully blown v8 with a blower and traction...if you wanna go fast....make it go fast why tinker with turbos? too bad that 2jz can handle well over 900hp on a stock bottom end. For the amount of money you have to spend on a full blown v8 your best bet is to stick with a 2jz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquest drifter123 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 ya im startin to lean to the 2jz but i really like the rb26, and im not much of a v8 dude cause im more into tuning japanese muscle :wink: so i mite do the rb cause i havent seen one yet 8) thanks for the repiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashsaudio Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Highly boosted brought mine which i orginally gonna do but things happened in my life so i had to sell it. Still no one in the US has a 2jz swap in a conquest cuz highlyboosted is still not done yet. See if you can beat him lol. O but there are 1jz out there tho. If you looking for the best bang i would stick with 2jz. I wanted to put it in my 05 s2000 but alot of people told me that be rude to do it to a fairly new s2000 So i'm just turboing it. o don't even use the stock twin turbos slap that cheap GT45 turbo (used it before and loved it) from ebay and get a cheap turbo header and 1000cc injectors and then Megasquirt it. probably easily get lil over 600rwhp on pump:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig87 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 there is a diffeence between making it run and making it run well. Try to be the first to get the 2jz done, if you do post how you did it here. The hold up right now on highly boosted's car is mainly me, but this isn't a ricer half---------------- swap. with spagetti wiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquest drifter123 Posted November 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 well guys once i get the money i think im going to go with the 2jz with the twinturbos and maybe make a new record with most power output for a starquest :twisted: !!!!!

After pass 900 w the 2jz asking for some damage. But most ever been poven on stock bottom end was 1052rwhp i think it was. Then after that, gotta build it up.

DJpowerHaus Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 What is the most powerful car you've driven before? 400hp in a 2WD car is plenty. Can't compare it to dad's muscle car. A 2900lb car with 400hp is pretty scary. Don't look for 600hp until you've tried 400hp first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not fast at all. That F350 is like 5700lbs.. A 2900lb car with 400hp is pretty scary. Especially with G54B torque. That 400hp would be accompanied by like 475tq or so..

tcroson Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 one thing to think of, is the oil pan clearing the crossmember. a 2j will need a new oil pan custom made for sure. an rb may work better because of the awd pan. just pull out the front diff and axles, seal it up and it may fit in. but both motors make crazy power. 2j parts are alot. and rb parts are hard as hell to sorce for a fair crazy expensive price. but the cool factor on the rb would be just a little higher only cuz its harder to get. an easier swap maybe a vq35 froma 350z.put a pro charger on it, slight build on the motor and 500+whp. or a vg30dett from a 300zx tt. tight fit. perhaps a lotus esprit v8tt. whole engine/trany only weight 450lbs. so say 350 or so for the motor. maybe a 4.6 cobra.(i think, what the the dohc motor was with the super charger). maybe a diesel?lol tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 For the 2jz all you need to do is swab a 1jzgte oil pan out of a jzx81 mark 2 or chaser because they have the sump up front and the 2jz can run front or rear sump. Another good thing about the 1jz or 2jz is you have your choice or 2 diff auto trannys and 3 diff maunals. There is also several tranny adaptor plates and bell housing conversions out there too.
