I still stand by an lsx build. The 2jz s days are numbered. It's heavy and they aren't making any new ones.

An NA all aluminum LS with a tremec transmission is very close to the weight of a turbo fa20. Will make more torque and will not go through transmissions like toilet paper.

Hey that's what happens when you put too much into it instead of keeping it simple and realistic. :bonk:

Actually you're completely wrong... He just deleted his thread/ties to ft86club due to ignorant fucs like you and one other thing. Continue being basic and miserable

That's okay, you can call it whatever you like... I just love when people speak on things they have absolutely no clue about, esp in a poor attempt to diss someone because something may not be "realistic" in his or hers' life ( @PhoKingCool ) but is very in another persons.

I would never choose the 2JZ over a LSx build. I'm interested to see the progress Vorshlag has made on their LSx kit.

I rather be basic than broke lol. You know how much upkeep there is with a car like that? No thanks. I would rather stick to an almost stock car and build my bank account instead. :flame:

Upkeep is nothing more than a stock car... Beauty of turbocharging is that you don't have run high boost all the time.


I know people that daily drive 1000+HP Supras.

That kids is confused/ill informed

It's not a "1000 HP supra" until they run that high boost.....

That's kinda the point... I've seen these cars prove it on a dyno and then daily drive.


It's nothing like a 1000HP NA build that requires constant upkeep.

You're always hating on these 2J posts, but nearly all your posts I see from you are in those threads.

He apparently monitors out every personal 2j build thread pretty closely. Funny how not even 30 hrs went by and he brought up thread deletion. Lol

You can get a new 2JZ, MVP motorsports sells everything you need to construct a new 2JZ. And as long as people don't want V8's in their car there will be 2JZ swaps.

Personally i would go for a RB26, more parts available from Japanese tuners and new parts coming out every year!
