um I though "cranks hard " was a good description

ok spools up like a sr i.e lots of torque down low just start breaking traction as soon as you put your foot down (this is with a larger i.e laggyier? turbo to)

I think 2.4 trys to keep close to stock bore and stroke ratio so it still likes to rev hard

best of both worlds

1400r. . . .Thank you for your response but the reason i asked for a more detailed answer was because i drive several different cars a day and being atuned to how they drive is a major part of my job so when i do something to my car i can feel the difference in response, through the rev range etc. and was just curious as to weather a hybrid motor would be a worthwhile project. I should have worded the question differently maybe by saying "I have a good Knowledge of cars in general and was hoping that some one could tell me the difference in driving characteristics between say the RB20 and an RB24? Which you duely have alraedy answered that it has more torque which in turn spools up quicker (even with a bigger turbo) which on the street although it has a lower peak power the extra turque and response of the larger capacity motor make it a much more enjoyable drive

So cranks hard wasn't an adequate description for me but your second part was great so again, many thanks for your reply :O

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
