How Many Killowatts Would This 2jz Thing Have?

[Black Widow]

There was a speed boat with a 2JZ and a big single on it at Auto Salon Final Battle last year...

it looked a wee bit safer then that...

Come on doof, who in their right mind gives a rats about safety? I mean really...

[Kujotk]

that may be so doof, but i bet you the autosalon one would have cost the same amount of 1000 of these things, nor would it have character, also the autosalon one could be all show and no go for all we know, atleast this one is floating.

and yeah if i had that much money i'd be doing excentric things with it aswell, i've always wanted a toilet in the skyline, might aswell throw in a spa bath aswell, and make it into one of those amphibious cars while i'm at it so i can go fishing with the car...

I see your 2JZ powered boat and raise you a 2 x Ferrari F440 engine boat.

It's got 5 seats too. So you could even take the family or pick the kids up from school.

Yum!

Not to mention the tail you could get telling a girl to go into your ferrari boat......come on, you were all thinking it.

EDIT: ^God damn!!

Such a stupid thread.

Who really cares what engine a boat has on it? I bet everyone would be smoking one another if it had an rb motor on it.

Who really give a rats arse about the Gas Motorsport boat, big deal, a built 2JZ in a boat, not different from the Xtreme Rotary 20B Turbo boat and it would probably be a raceboat just like the 20b.

Looks pretty cool to me!!

If i had the money i too would build somat like that!! (the ferrari one that is)

[Basti]

these things are everywhere in thailand. plenty of them are na engines with backyard turbo conversions slapped on. they fkn rock

[bozodos]

I find myself wondering why there aren't any speedboats around here that use a RB or 1/2JZ (apart from one well known raceboat that uses a 1000hp VH45DE(TT?) in favour of heavy, clunky old V8s

boats dont run gears as such, so the lag is ghey

Yeah... Auto Salon is only like 50% rice these days... It's not everyday you get to see cars to back to back 1000rwkw runs...

[bozodos]

A lot are TT or S/C though Hamish, guess the lag is not as bad when you've got an 8 litre V8 behind it lol

yeah i have no idea what your crying about???? all i understood is you had something to do with the building of the 20b rotary boat or something...

LOL at your quote " Who really cares what engine a boat has on it?" LOL umm, thats what makes the boat, car, aeroplane ect ect.... Its like saying 'who cares about the engine in the Bugatti Veyron'...

ooh birds is posting. i'll make the popcorn

Which isn't much different to the inboard 350 chevs and clevelands that have been used in boats for decades. Why the sudden awe when the jap engines make their way onto a boat?!?

That is one dodgy ass setup in the OP though. They've outboarded a car engine

Because water requires lots of low down torque and the V8 configuration is more boat friendly. It's less complicated + easier to work on and setup on a boat. Very reliable when it comes to salt water too.

EDIT: Sorry to disappoint you Basti, I've cut down on the theses and I'm agreeing more and more these days

[PM-R33]

Hahaha

[urtwhistle]

Like birds said, its really nothing to do with HP its the torque thats needed in a boat to get the boat on "plane".

My familys ski boat has a common as muck 350 chev. at WOT it cant rev past 4.1k Rpm because the cams are focused on low down torque to pull a couple of skiiers out of the water.

i would imagion that small turbo motor may go faster once it actually got moving but i doubt it would ever get a 1.5t ski boat + 4 ski biscuits up on plane. well deffinitly not in a prop driven boat any way.

[funkymonkey]

awww yeah. going strong since 1885.

[PIG747]

external gate and sreamer FTW

i went on a few of these boats in Thailand and like other have said some of them haul ass. We even raced another boat on the water which was funny.

Some of them have turbos slapped on and them seem to be running fine
