I'm sure its perfectly do-able - there is a guy in Wellington replacing the RB30 in his Skyline with the Toyota engine - considers it stronger than the RB. But if I ever get an M35 (as well as my C34!) I would be keen to put a VH41 or ideally a 4wd VK56 setup in it.

BTW New Zealand's fastest 1/4 miler is 2JZ powered:

AWD VK45 from a Cima stroked out to 5.6 would certainly be awesome and is on my "if I win Lotto" list :)

2J > RB

All Toyota needed in the 90's was the GTR's ATTESSA.

its nice to dream. but the cold hard facts are that the sheer cost involved in doing such a conversion, makes it completely pointless unless uve got shitloads of cash just lying around. for the money you would spend getting it to work, you could buy a seriously quick supra and prob have enough change to pay for an extension on ur garage to put it in. if you want a quick stag, work the vq. if you want a fast 2jz powered wagon buy the crown or buy a cheap commodore and put a 2jz in that. its been done before and it works well.

20B in the Cosmo had the same 407nm as our VQ25det from factory.

At what 10million RPM? pinch.gif

Rotarys do have torque, they have HEAPS of torque, but Torque = power / (2*Pi*RPS). So any high power output engine has big torque figures to match, but they make torque at such stratospheric revs and lack ANY torque in the lower revs. So in a real world situation theres none available :thumbsup:

Anyway, sorry about the rant.

To me the idea of replacing a multi award winning, highly advanced platform like the VQ V6 with an out of date lump of iron would be a really bad decision from an engineering perspective. This decission could only be made on personal grounds, so you will need to forget any advice you get from anyone else. If you have a spare $10 grand and want nothing but a 2JZ powered M35 then do it, but don't ever ask anyone what they think about your ride. :thumbsup:

I know which one I'd rather have!

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
