M35 2Jz

[chad bob]

*sigh*

Obviously a generic form that they fill out.

Just so as we are clear, in no way am I advocating that I would prefer a "Rotah" over a "Motah" (lol), but I feel you guys needed to understand that not all rotors are without torque.

Yeeeeaah.

With the addition of turbo chargers, rotary motors are capable of producing torque in usable ranges. You'll be using copious amounts of fuel to achieve this. However the man has a point.

I get it "chad bob", you don't like rotaries, but pointing out what the addition of turbo's do to a rotary without saying the same for a low comp 2.5 V6 is a little silly.

btw, without a turbo, the low compression VQ25det struggles to even move a 1700kg wagon.

Anyway, so what are going to do Josh? Mod the VQ25 or try the 2J?

why people keep thinking they weigh so much... half tank ,2 people, with sounds, 1550kg...

Putan Ls3 in it, much simpler. <- Joking, it side tracked me from argueing about rotaries.

I put mine on the weighbridge at work; 1680kg, roughly 1/2 a tank of fuel, no one on board. No sunroofs or electric seats; just a basic RS.

Huge bitch! Weird, duno why mine would be lighter then.

These scales are calibrated often too, same ones I used to setup my rx7 right on the weight limit for class

Minus the sound of the 2JZ... I see no point in the swap.

Will upset the weight dist... Just like dickheads putting RB's into S-chassis.

ever driven one? with the right spring rate you can hardly tell the difference, my s13 has never had a problem with under steer, infact reef the wheel hard enough or turn to sharply and the arse lets go.

dont brainwash ppl with information that is not 100% true

Mmk, it's still a boat anchor motor lol

Not brainwashing people, simply putting my 2cents in like everyone else.

+1 on that!

Hey,

I love the m35 stagea. The body style is awesome but I feel the issues with the engine and low turbo life is letting it down. This is where I come to my next question. If later on down the track I was to put a 2jz (personsal favourite) would I still use the m35 ecu to run the cars features minus engine and gearbox control. would I run into any limp mode issues or will that be over as I would have you use a throttle cable. I am after answers not to be critisied guys. I know there are alot of guys who like the engine in the stageas and im not going to say anything. This is just a personal interest for myself.

Cheers josh

In case you are still wanting to go ahead with your 2J conversion
