WTF calm down!

He said that an RB26 is 400cc smaller than a 2J

Also fow do you have no problems flowing over 1000hp when you havent made 1000hp yet?

A car that makes 510 kw at the wheels thats almost 700hp. Can you convert that to FLYWHEEL ENGINE POWER. Its very close to a 1000 because its going through a automatic tranmission you will need to add about 20% on that drivetrain loss so as you can seethe head is more than capable of FLOWING over a 1000hp. Dont confuse that with rear wheel horspower.

Also as far as me being DAFT i know the RB30 is a single cam head. I just used it as an example as to why people use hybrids.

And saying a head has CC ratings is stupid.

For those who claim a j engine sounds better than an RB, clean ya farken ears out. The j can scream but it cant snarl like an angry rb.

They are both amazing engines and can punch well above their weight. 1000 plus hp is achievable in either camp.

Yes the toyota can be made to handle, there are some fine examples of quick track cars around but you have to throw a shitload more coin at them to achieve it.

Drive what you like, they both outdo the local product by a wide margin but someone should have drowned the tool that designed the supra body.

You said sequential gearbox for starters...but ill leave it there.

yeah yup...a head sure does have cc ratings....

Noel - you are old and your ears cant handle the 1jz scream :P

also the body is fine...the dash is gross...but Id live with it

You may be right Zeb, Even screamer pipes sound like a busted arse to me. The anger of a hot rb on the other hand gives me wood. (or as close as you can get to it at my age)

You obviously dont know my car. If u think im lying head over to The Supraforums and check out the build page.

It has a fully built TOYOTA AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION built by MV automatics, with a spragless stage 3 kit new gears, b&m quick shifter and full manual valve body so it shifts sequentially.

But its still an auto box.

The combustion chamber is measured in CC's....thats part of the head and can play a big role in how an engine performs.

Also port volumes are measured in CC's

Manual Valve bodies in an Auto does not make it a sequential box...its an Auto with a manual valve body :)

Anyway this isnt a thread about A340's so STFU now kthx

The combustion chamber is measured in cc's is it :), Dude u have lost the plot. Anyway, you made it about A340's not me, so as far me shutting up make me. I dare u to try it.

And its not just a manual valve body its a whole gearset.

My god.

No wonder I rarely venture to this part of the forum.

I live an breathe engines...so you go ahead and keep being incorrect and pulling your dick over your "sequential auto box" and I'll go on my merry way.

autos are ghey

... combustion chamber volume IS measured in cc's

+1

Thread delivers teh lulz. For the record most incarnations of 1.5jz come about when a 1jz powered vehicle has a 2jz bottom end bolted on to stroke it out 500cc. You'll seldom see it done the other way around, starting with a 2jz powered vehicle - only reason I can think of is that 1jz heads are probably cheaper...

As for the 26 head on a 30.....well that makes you sound rather daft.

RB26 head has 2 cams, 4 valves/cylinder solid lifters etc compared to the RB30 head which is SOHC 2 valve and hydraulic lifters

Well you'd put the 26 head on a 30 bottom end rather than a 26 head on an 30 head. A head on a head wouldn't make much power mate. :)

Alright Captain Ahab,

Before you go on, go do some reading, because obviously you don't know what your f**king talking about.

Come back, apologize to zebra, and then apologize to the world for 'trying' to race a yacht.

Back On topic.

Personally not a fan of the sound of the J engine, have heard a few nice ones though, its all swings and roundabouts.

There are one or two very nice handling Supras, but , well that's my point there are one or two LOL.

And Birds if your going to the expense and trouble of building a hybrid, you wouldn't leave a worse performing head on it.

    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
