that was written like a monkey that went to troll school.

and if you are talking only of markIV supras, then they never had a 1J anyway they had a 2J

also i heard that 26 is better technology just not stronger parts from factory.

speak on it people.

I dont know anything bout supra's , just noting that two of the top tuners in japan seemed to favour the GTR motor over the supra motor, but they used the supra's body and gearbox.

I dont know about troll school either, but i know theres a lot of monkey's on the gold coast!!!:nyaanyaa:

to be honest ive never been in a 1J powered car so i may change my mind .. lol.

I have a video and theres a Jap Guy called SMOKEY NAGATA , hes a top tuner in japan, dont know if you guys have seen his DVD, he does burn outs and over 300km/hr runs on the street, his mate also drive a GTR, hes also a top tuner.

anyhow, in his video his uses a supra but puts the GTR engine in with the supra 6speed , he does this to two supra's cause the body is better aerodynmics apparently and also has a V8GTR which hammers too..

If the 1J was so much better how come he doesnt use it?? must be a reason or maybe hes just a nissan fan

That car was originally a 2JZ which later got swapped to the RB26 when the car the 26 was originally from hung its gloves up. I believe the 26 was the better developed motor at that point and they had specific goals for it.

Later that same car went on to run a 3SGTE (2L 4 pot from an MR2 or Celica) which also muscled the car over 300 and was seen doing so on one of the earlier hioctane DVD's.

Moral of the story is at 1000hp its not necessarily which motor you started with but how much development you have invested into it..........................................

What does "better technology" mean?

not pushrods?

wasnt about LS vs RB

talking about JZ vs RB

i read it but i cant back it up as far as maybe the fact the intake manifold and turbo setups are better.

someone should be able to speak on what is better between the two.

Yeah nah.. The JZ is a sturdier motor and matches as far as tech goes... If not surpasses.

First thing that won me in the JZ decision was the oil pump. A stout keyway backed up by a spline adaptor press fit onto the crank and the actual oil pump being driven by the spline.

As far as tech goes its a 2 piece runner to plenum with an injector bolt on section (like a spacer off the head). 2 cam sensors, map sensor, big throttle with TPS attached and a 1 piece harness that does not wire into the car. The motor can be unplugged and lifted out, then run on the floor if u want (old v8 style).

No VCT but I dont exactly call that leading edge technology and the turbo setup on the JZ is actually pretty trick... They are stout for an OEM item.

Nobody is saying they are crap lol, they just aren't the absolute best motor ever created like people seem to believe.

No, toyota worshipping phaiggots like many here hold that special place for the JZ series, god there is some cock pulling that goes on over them !

2JZ NO SHIT WITH NAAWWSSS... etc

People that wouldn't know if a dog bit them etc.

ya think?

i am RB all the way. i just admit that 2JZ is a very strong motor straight out of the factory.

i also admit it looks like a big boring docile cow and sounds like the straight 6 version of a hyundai with a cannon..

yeah well certainly on paper it sounds better than an rb, i cant speak for it really though, ive never driven one, i just like nissan since the first vl turbo that i drove, was like a jet engine, smooth and silky , but nasty.. from then on ive been sold on rb's..:whistling: for me i just feel that the rb is a very well designed bullet proof motor, and i have confidence in it..

      Rv37 400r questions

      By elir32 · Posted

      Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance

      Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened.

      R34 GTT Battery Relocation To Trunk

      By NZ-GTT · Posted

      I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
