Lol agreed definitely,
You really have to compare apples with apples,
comparing a 2.5 litre and a 3 litre engine in the case of the 2J is stupid (increased stresses due to lower displacement etc)
I think one of the biggest problems is people have these toyota engines and in alot of cases they are transplanted out of much newer cars and they are comparing them with 89 - 91 vintage RB's (especially the 26)
And we all know the story with the nose of the crank etc.
However you don't seem to hear about too many 34 vintage RB's with these apocalyptic "oiling issues"
I seriously cringe everytime i hear someone mention oiling problem, harmonics, oil pump, extended sump because I just know the how the conversation is going to go.
Anywho it's all good, gotta go "rebuild" my 26
