Rb Head Vs Jz Head


Recommended Posts

Sydneykid. What is your point mate?

I said its LESS relevant. Not irrelevant! You know for a fact that you don't need the most power to win circuit races. Its possible to get a lot faster by spending all the money on the chassis with stock power. If I get a stock car and spend all my money on drag style suspension it will hardly get faster. Obviously you cant have a 1000hp engine in a stock car with shit driver and get awesome drag results. But you have to agree this 1000hp stock suspension car will be MUCH more successful at drag racing than it would at circuit racing. That is my point. There is simply no way to go fast in drag racing without huge power, you can't make up time with a well setup chassis if you don't have the power. Look at cars like lotus etc. They have fricking Camry engines in them and will FLOG skylines because they handle so well. Can this be used to compare the Camry engine to a RB26?

You really have to stop giving me a free ride to fun

What you are saying is only engine power matters

You can't go fast without huge power

So it doesn't matter how much your drag cars weighs, only how much power it makes

So it doesn't matter how aerodynamic your drag car is, only how much power it makes

What you are saying is if I stick a 1000 hp JZ into a bus it will still do the same ET or TS

as say a Tootees door car chassis

To quote a famous TV show "I don't think so Tim"

And I haven't even gotten into traction yet.

:thumbsup: cheers :wacko:

sydneykid you seem pretty defensive in your comments, but what do you have to show? how much money have you spent? You seem all talk mate, I wish one day u come across some of my mates single turbo Sups, i know a few single turbs sups that have upset alot of big cars on these forums. So don't be biased mate.

No problems, tell 'em to bring it on

I can be at Wakefield Park anytime they like

Let's make it a 30 lap challenge on road tyres

I'll even give them a lap head start

:thumbsup: cheers :wacko:

lets get a stock camry engined lotus to race him around the track. This will prove the TOYOTA CAMRY engine is better than an worked RB26. (according to his logic)

A quote from you

There is simply no way to go fast in drag racing without huge power

You build the fastest JZ you can with HUGE power

and put it in a bus (I am feeling generous, not a double decker or a bendy, a single decker will do)

I will race you in a standard Skyline

Wanna bet who goes fast and who doesn't?

Too easy, I am getting bored, like candy from a baby

:thumbsup: cheers :wacko:

How about Willobank, if you can beat a 10.1 @144mph on street tyres and a stock engine than we talking :]. Anything else doesn't inpress me. When you beat a 10.1 (with a stock motor), than he'll come and do some HAPPY LAPS for you :thumbsup:.

Well you could always spend that money on weight reduction.

You dont need power to circuit or drag. Its just generally cheaper.

If you dropped 200kg's off a Skyline or Supra... regardless of its 11ty billion KW's, the car will go faster.

You dont have to have power to go fast, its that simple.

Power is not the be all and end all, its that simple.

Had the money been spend on weight reduction and not outright power i bet the car runs the same time or better :wacko:

Running a time is great, good on you. What does it prove? Little.

You really gotta remember what you said and not get it confused with what I said.

Once more I have to quote you............getting tedious isn't it?

QUOTE(DennisRB30 @ 10 Jul 2006, 01:29 PM)

Anyone that argues MPH at the drags is not a good indication of an engines power potential............

Your the one who claimed MPH is a good indication of engine power

A statement that I totally dissagre with and have proven so with the bus example.

Stick a 1,000 bhp JZ in a bus and I bet it does lousy mph

Hell make it a 2,000 bhp JZ

:thumbsup: cheers :wacko:

Sydneykid.

You are being ridiculous and pedantic. Drag cars have minimum weights which racers try to aim for and no one is going to fit a 1JZ to a bus and aim for good quarter mile times. What are you on mate? Why did I fit my 2JZ to much lighter car than the Aristo my engine came from? Implying I don't know that light well set up cars go faster at the drags is ridiculous (specially since I already mentioned this obvious fact) and shows you have run out of relevant things to argue about in your quest to make me look stupid. It seems like you are taking my position on RB vs JZ as a personal attack and will post the most ridiculous crap like 1JZ double decker drag busses to try and burn me. What is wrong with you?

Come guys, we all know a drag calculators major inputs are MPH and weight to determine power. No need to go stupid.

What, it's all one way traffic?

He gets to choose first?

Who died and made him king?

Simple challenge, I bet my car is 10% faster than his at any circuit I choose

And his car isn't 10% faster than mine at any drag track he chooses

What shall we race for?

:thumbsup: cheers :wacko:

So whats the point of this thread again?

:D

Rattle the monkey's cage.......and steal his bananas :thumbsup::wacko::(

:yes: cheers :D

PS, I am actually finding it very entertaining, but I have to go, I have a 2600 bhp engine to tune.

Sydneykid how old are you? ....oh wait, it says it in your user name, SydneyKID :(.

Sometimes when you are talking to juveniles you have to speak in their terms

Other wise they don't understand you

Aren't I clever that I can lower myself down to the necessary level?

Without you even suspecting?

Any time you want to challenge me on anything I write, please feel free to do so

But be prepared to put up or shut up

I don't put anything in writing that I can't support 100%

Check around

:thumbsup: Cheers :wacko:

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
