The Best Of Both Worlds..

[Nee-san]

while the rb26 is a decent motor, it is getting a bit long in the tooth now. it is old technology and there is much nicer engines out there that will make more power reliably with less work. and they will make more power down low.

a 6L LS motor with a turbo hanging off each side would go great. would fry the tyres rather easily as well with the amount of torque it would be putting out. or keeping it in the nissan family, even just a VQ37 from a 370Z with twin turbos, or a vq38 out of a r35 would go well in there. both engines would be lighter than the rb26, probably sit lower and further back in the engine bay, and make good power with good reliability.

You raise good points, however I would put forward that the technology in any of the LS motors would still be obselete to that found in an RB26 mainly because they are designed with different purposes in mind.

Also, labelling the RB26 as long in the tooth is in my view a little short sighted, given the motors your using for your comparison are LS series.

I think it is also important to raise the point that any sort of comparison between engines should involve relative capacity as this is often the most important factor when we are talking motorsport classification; which, at the end of the day is what engine comparisons are all about right ?

Obviously anyone can integrate any motor with any chassis combination, with wide ranging and myriad modifications making useful comparison between units useless, however, not everyone wants to build a sports sedan but I digress, we are getting off topic !

Please don't take this as a personal attack I just figured I should elaborate on what i said

Cheers,

Mitch.

For factual accuracy, "Ken and Mary" was C110 (73-77), C210 (78 - 81) was "Skyline Japan".

2JZ into a R32 GTR...

While we're talking 2J, what about into a s13/s14?

as has this (many times)

would be good to see a supercharged 1JZ in a hilux for drift.

and this (turbo anyway, not s/c)

= stupid hoon showing off to his hektik mates

and then comes on here posting that his friend

did stupid stuff and crashed but instead its acutally him and

hes to much of a pussy to face it

and rb26 into KPGC10

[funkymonkey]

Somehow we put the Wrx motor in the back, should fit pretty easy, and plenty of room for another diff in the front, then we just change the gearbox ratios so it has 5 reverse speed s and one forward and wallah!

Something like that anyway, so let your imaginations fly and if anyone is awesome at photoshop please do what i cant...

so you want a boxer engine in a VW body hey?

Have you heard of a Porsche?
