yeah I have been told there are some fairly substaintial gains that can be had from SR20DET heads being ported. The first thing i did with my built motor was to get 1mm oversized exhaust valves which would help a little in the flow department - as I was too scared to lose any low down torque from major head porting lol...

Thanks once again for your help Daniel...

sydney kid, you never cease to amaze me with the shit that comes out of your brain and onto this forum.

Strangely enough some of the stuff that you post doesn’t amaze me at all

MPH is a direct result of power, there are other measures but MPH is a bloody good measurable realisitc measure, circuit times and ets aren't.

I know that you know its average power to weight not max power on its own. Why do you persist in promoting something that is so obviously wrong?

fact remains, its a known fact toyota engines JZ series will take far more power for far longer periods of time than RB engines. that is fact.

That’s you opinion not a fact, JZ’s cost more to make the same power as RB26’s. We have had this discussion before, whether I spend $1K on stronger rods or $1K on an inlet manifold is irrelevant, it still costs $1K to fix the problem. Your problem is you think not spending money on the inside of an JZ somehow makes it superior even though you spend more on the outside fixing the JZ’s shortcomings in that area.

one of the main reason i built my car was to go race GTST's and flog there arse

I have looked long and hard at the ANDRA Sport Compact Records and I can’t find one JZ at the top of any list. A couple of RB’s though. I have also had a look at the HPI Radial challenge and I can’t find one JZ at the top of that list either. A few RB’s on top there as well.

but its people like you SK that make all other skyline haters hate skyline owners. many toyota guys get on this forum

The problem is I currently work on more Toyotas at race meetings than I do Skylines at the moment. Perhaps that’s the problem.

i apologise ahead of time if my comments have offended anyone.

Eh, a bit of venting never hurt anybody, as long as it is done in the right spirit. Plus it would be a very boring forum if we all agreed with each other all of the time.

:dry: cheers :D

How does VVT give larger CFM readings? AKAIK on RB's, SR's and 2J's the VVT doesn't activate a third inlet valve, change the port size, manipulate runner size or length, or do anything other than change the lobe center on the camshaft.

Edit: Also your flow readings.. are they an average? What lift? What pressure? What measuring equipment?

ok the name calling and bickering stops now. this thread has great info in it, but it's not a debate on whether or not mph=power, or is rb more reliable than jz or does jz power faster cars than rb or whatever.

i'm inclined generally to just let things run their course but the fighting is wrecking and diluting the thread. I'm not singling anyone out, but the next person to start up with the arguing will cop a warning. everyone in this argument has had their say now, so lets just leave it be.

any questions on flow of RB vs JZ heads etc or info is welcome of course. :dry: so bearing that in mind lets continue shall we?

Strangely enough some of the stuff that you post doesn’t amaze me at all

I know that you know its average power to weight not max power on its own. Why do you persist in promoting something that is so obviously wrong?

So 2 cars, equal weight, trans, driver, suspension etc. One has 450rwhp from 4000rpm to 7000rpm. Another has 550rwhp from 5500-7000rpm. Are you telling me that the 450rwhp car will out trap the 550rwhp car?

That’s you opinion not a fact, JZ’s cost more to make the same power as RB26’s. We have had this discussion before, whether I spend $1K on stronger rods or $1K on an inlet manifold is irrelevant, it still costs $1K to fix the problem. Your problem is you think not spending money on the inside of an JZ somehow makes it superior even though you spend more on the outside fixing the JZ’s shortcomings in that area.

Difference is that the RB rods are a necessity wheras the stock inlet manifold on a 1 or 2jz or fine unless you are wanting to squeeze every last HP out of your engine and you want to push the torque curve higher up the rev range.

I have looked long and hard at the ANDRA Sport Compact Records and I can’t find one JZ at the top of any list. A couple of RB’s though.

4wd vs RWD on street tyres. Hmm... :)

I have also had a look at the HPI Radial challenge and I can’t find one JZ at the top of that list either. A few RB’s on top there as well.
Negative it seems.

Carlos: 10.04@150mph. 2.23 60 ft.

am i writing in invisible ink?

edit: in case I wasn't clear debating about things unrelated to RBvsJZ heads and flow figures etc is going to stop. you are now just debating the same point over and over. if you want to argue the toss with sydneykid pm him and do so.

As for flow numbers here they are:

Rb26 (std) Inlet: 148cfm Ex: 105cfm

Rb25 (std) Inlet: 136cfm Ex: 98cfm

2JZ (std) Inlet: 139cfm Ex:121cfm

1JZ (std) Inlet: 134cfm Ex: 115cfm

very interesting figures there

also note that the 2J has a lift of 8.61/8.79mm while the 26 im pretty sure is only 8.1/8.2mm??

also, a guy in the the states flowed the 2J and 1J heads and got significantly higher figures than that!!

was done at 400lift (10.16mm) but not sure at what inches of water it was done at tho

his figures read:

std 2J as follows

238@400lift intake

154@400lift exhaust

std 1J

215@400 intake

133@400 exhaust

your 2J figures give a percentage of 87% while his gives 64.7%

granted his tests are done at alot more lift which will give a higher reading

cheers

Just dug this thread up. I didn't expect to actually find any more decent info, just more bullshit!

Thanks Daniel for providing the figures. Very interesting. :)

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
