yea the 3sgte stroker 2.2L is more then sufficent to put out those hp reliablely and win races..

well it was up to toyota to use it.. i really wanna write a letter and ask them why they never really used the 2jz for any kind of race.. i know its whole lot heavier but still..

anyways check this supra out :bouncy:

Thanks for posting those pictures - I agree that v8 looks kind of cool in a jza80 engine bay.

On the other hand, it's kind of a shame. With the bone-stock 2jz-gte block's ability to put out over 800rwhp, there's really no need to swap it out (imo). Personally, I'd rather see a 2jz-gte being used in a '68 Cuda than a V8 in a jza80. :)

thats the 4.7 litre 2uz-fe =D.. its buttom end can take.. umm we dont know yet haha.. probely somewhere in the 1000+ range.. a bored out one to 5.3 did 1200hp with 20PSI.. lol

the power delivary on that v8 will put the 2jz to shame though

Yup and a built 2jz-gte put out 1520rwhp through a powerglide transmission & high-stall torque converter.

Although it might be capable of exceeding 1520rwhp, I sincerely doubt it'll ever make enough power to "put the 2jz to shame".

im sure the 2uz-fe buttom end is tough or tougher then a 2jz

a built one did 1600whp and probely more haha

its the power deilvary that will put it to shame.. 2jz's will suffer alot more boost lag then a 2uz-fe turboed.. torque numbers and plot will put it away too =D

Dboz 01-01-2006 05:30 AM

actually

the 2uz has really bad stock rods.. but the block itself is super strong just like all toyota iron cast blocks.. the pistons arent bad.. the crankshaft is like the 2jz and alot of toyota engines.. overbuilt!

just the huge displacement difference is the biggest advantage over the 2jz

anyways its new years time guys.. 2.5 hours left.. i gotta go party it up! woot

It has 57% more displacement and two more cylinders, so I'd hope it would at least have some small advantage on an unlimited-budget sponsored-race-team type of build.

Do you have any more data on that one that did 1600whp? I'd be interested in learning more about it.

This does get a bit off-topic though. Although big single turbos, v8 engine swaps and nos are all ways to make more power, I'm waiting for SKILMATIC to fess up that he's way off base with his 650rwhp on stock block & stock twins GUESS. He guessed wrong - whether it was due to faulty arithemtic or his faulty knowledge about the size of the 2jz-gte's oem twins. I think it's pretty important that guys like Evilfurby don't go away from this thread thinking that he'll be able to make 650rwhp with his '97 mk4 tt, using only the oem twins and the stock block, after he buys it.

It's not pessimistic, it's realistic. The inventor of the a-bomb wasn't on the same type of budget as someone like Evilfurby looking at maxing out the stock block, stock twins horsepower of a used Supra that he's planning to buy. For any reasonable amount of $, you're not going to make 650rwhp using the stock twins alone. In fact, I'll allow you an unreasonable amound of $. You'll never do it even if you spend $25,000.00 on the problem (not counting the cost of the car itself). Is that a reasonable budget, iyo?


Dude, no one ever said anything about cost aspects. I said it is possible to get that much. Even you should agree that it is possible. And if I had 25grand to spend on a motor and I had to use the stock twins. All I would do is max boost, racing fuel, bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, standalone engine management, bore the engine out w/ stroker kit, exedy multi disc clutch, lightened flywheel with carbon pads, trd diff, better IC and piping, intercooler chiller kit, and 200shot of nitrous(wet kit). Theres your 650rwhp. Stock engine is 320 just the nitrous alone bumps it up to 520(and thats a maybe 1000dollar mod depending on where you get the kit from) I got 24 grand left. Any questions?

Quote:

I'm talking about mileage on the turbos. They just don't boost as well if they've got a lot of mileage on them.
O ok thanks for clarifying that.

Quote:

I've already told you. I base my data on my own work on my own MK4, my work on other Mk4's, as well as the work of the dozens and dozens of other Mk4 owners that have worked on this problem and posted their results. Now, upon what do you base your BS 650rwhp on stock block & stock twins figure? Faulty mathematics? Lol.
And your still wrong. As I have already maped it out for you.

Quote:

No one is arguing with you there, but let's get back to the topic - is your assertion still that you can feasibly make 650rwhp with a stock 2jz-gte block and it's stock twin turbos?
I said the stock motor yes. Engine management, nitrous, and more boost I never said you couldnt use(show me where I said word for word that you couldnt use these things). With these things alone you can get that amount when done right. However, then you claimed that even if I could do anythign to the motor the stock twins wouldnt handle it. Which again is not true.

Quote:

Prove it then! This isn't a matter of odds like rolling some dice at Las Vegas. This is a matter of how much air those two little 2jz-gte oem twins can pump. They simply can't pump enough air to produce that much horsepower. It's beyond the capability of those devices, therefore it's not improbable, it's literally impossible.

Now if we go beyond the conditions of your earlier posts and add a big single turbo or a big shot of NO2+fuel to make the horsepower, then of course it can be done. But again, on oem twins and oem block alone, there's just no way.
Bingo now someone is thinking. I never said once you couldnt use nitrous or any other means of management. Just stock block and stock twins. Anything else is a go. Now you are coming to reality. I see the dice is turning in my favor.

Quote:

Yes. I'm also sure that YOU shouldn't be posting on MK4 threads, because you're completely uninformed and unqualified to answer any questions about it.
As you have already losed this debate about a mk4. You have already admitted that 650rwhp is attainable on the stock motor with stock twins with the help of nitrous which is a 1000dollar mod. Well what happened with the rest of the 24grand? I never said once you couldnt use nitrous. Thank you for debating sir. You did ok. Not bad for a newbie.

The funny thing is while I am not qualified to answer these questions you have just debacled yourself in your own debate. First you say "you need a unattainable amount of money to make 650rwhp on the stock block and stock twins" then you say "o but its attainable with nitrous which is a 1000dollar mod." Maybe you will take my advice and chose your battles much more wisely.

I totally agree with that. Plus the 2jz is lighter than the v8 which would inturn cause for better handling and better et's.

WRONG AGAIN. You wouldn't be making the power with the stock twins in that build. You'd be making it with the NOS. You said nothing about NOS in your earlier posts, and Evilfurby didn't ask about making power with NOS - he asked about making it with the stock twins.

No questions, but you broke the conditions you set up in post #7 of this thread. You made the power using a stroker kit & nos...not the stock block and stock twins.

I'm glad that YOU finally admit you can't make 650rwhp with the stock twins alone. At least the others reading this thread know the truth NOW.

I mentioned NO2 MUCH earlier in this debate, and specifically excluded it from the conditions. Sorry for you that you didn't notice it sooner. You also said in your post that stated the conditions of this debate that you'd make the power with the stock twins. You never mentioned anything about nos.

Also, why didn't your earlier (flawed) calculations here include NO2? LOL!

No questions, but you broke the conditions you set up in post #7 of this thread. As a reminder, you said exactly this: "I am talking about just a stock bottom end(as I have repeatedly said stock block) with the stock turbos. And I meant to say 650rwhp. With a better grind cams, angle cut valves, and a P&P head you can easily squeeze out 650rwhp." Instead, you came up with a build that makes power using a stroker kit & nos. LOL.

HEY YOU TOLD ME I have 25grand and I could use it how I want to all I have to do is keep the stock twins. But ok lets say I cant do anyhting to the motor which is what I said. Thats fine I still can make 650rwhp on the stock block and stock twins.

Does that post look familiar? Those are your words for the 25grand game. You said just stock twins not stock motor.

It doesnt matter whethor or not I said it in my earlier posts or not. I said you can make 650rwhp on the stock block and stock twins did I not? I never gave any restriction on what you can and cant do. Eveything else is a go. I never said the turbos alone were to be the ones making that power. So please admit you were wrong in every aspect of this debate. You falied to realize there was Nitrous just like you failed to realize your suposed mk4 doesnt come with ct26's stock.

Quote:

No questions, but you broke the conditions you set up in post #7 of this thread. You made the power using a stroker kit & nos...not the stock block and stock twins.

I know I was playing by the rules of your game. But if you want to change them then thats your falacy.

Quote:

Sure you made the power, but not with the stock block and the stock twins. LOL!

Yes I did. take out the bore and stroker kit and you still can attain 650rwhp. Nitrous alone is 520. Max the boost you get at least another 100hp then standalone engine management, race gas, better fuel management, better drivetrain you could get more then 650rwhp. So again please admit you were wrong. Any questions? Or do I need to edumacate you on the aspects of nitrous and engine management too?

Quote:

STOCK BLOCK = NO STROKER KIT. DUH.
I was only playing by your rules. But I would rather play by mine which is the original discussion. Which means we must keep the stock block and stock twins. You wanted to let me do anyhting I wanted to the motor as long as I kept the stock twins and I said if you say so. hehehe

Quote:

Let's forget stock twins. Why not take them off completely, and spray a 450 shot? LOL. Again, Evilfurby wasn't talking about making power with nos, and neither were you...till now.

Because if you spray a 450shot on a stock block even though its forged you will detonate and/or melt your rings. Ever seen a motor that runs on just nitromethane(which has a lower combustible temperature)?

Quote:

You're welcome. I hope you enjoyed loosing when you broke the conditions of this debate. :)

You losed both ways. Whether we keep the stock block or not I still win. Any questions?

Quote:

I'm glad that YOU finally admit you can't make 650rwhp with the stock twins alone. At least the others reading this thread know the truth NOW.
Yes you can, stock motor and stock twins you can make 650rwhp. Thank you for losing this debate as you have from the start. Everyone knows you can add things onto the motor. I never said leave the motor completely stock. Everyone has the common sense to know the implementation of nitrous in this case would be needed. But I guess it took you 3 pages of debate to realize such a thing.

If you mentioned it earlier than I am sorry I didnt awknowledge that. However, the fact still remains that on the stock block and stock twins a 650rwhp goal is attainable.

suprra_girl 01-01-2006 06:14 AM

when you get 650rwhp on the stock twins please do post up your dyno sheet and pics of ur car ;)
i'd like to see it

I really have to fix certain things in this thread.
I always wanted to but then Suprra_Girl closed it and I wanted to get her OK before opening it.
Most of this thread was written just before I was modded.

Some clarifications should be stated so that this forum has some credibility to its members.

Quote:

Let me get back to you on this. I remember reading somewhere but I forget where. Hold on let me research this. I know I seen this done before.
Please find sources of info--preferable reliable info--before posting.
That way you can back your claim up and if you are found to be wrong, the blame gets shifted to that source. ;)
I highly doubt there was ever such a source from which you claim exists where they said you could make that much power from the stock twins.

Quote:

Actually let me do the math on this...
...The stock boost on the ct26's is usually around 7-11.5(ea). Now the ct26's are much like a conventional t3/t4. The ct26 is capable of putting out 20psi max. Now each psi equals about 7-10hp. If we up the boost from the stock 10psi on each turbo to say 20psi on each turbo thats 40 psi total on a 2jz NA puts out around 240. So take 40multiply that by 10 you get 400hp add the stock motors hp which is 240 and you get around 640hp. The proof is in the math. Of course engine management/fuel management will be needed...Now if I can only find that dam link...
First, the 2JZ-GTTE uses two CT12b's, not CT26's.
Second, it may be true that at a certain range, each addition PSI will produce 10 HP, but that equation is not a linear equation. Yes, I am sure there is a mathematical formula for it, but implying that the equation is linear, is very incorrect math.

Quote:

...Remember a turbo mixes exhaust gases into the ambient air form the intake charge. So oxygen isnt a problem...
A turbo pressurizes the incoming air into the cylinder. There is no connection between the intake and the exhaust at all. The turbine drives that attached shaft that carries the compressor wheel and that is how they are related/connected in their function.


Quote:

...Again I dont need luck when its been done before with pure mathematics. Thats all engines are. Engines were built on the concept of mathematics. And so is every turbo system or blower system out there...
But the mathematics that are used are not solely linear equations. If it were true, then compressor maps would have no curve. Also there are power curves and torque curves--the mathematical equation for determining mathematically what power output you will have which would correspond to plotting points on a power curve or torque curve are so complex that I would not dare even think that I could fathom it.

Quote:

...I tell you what when I find that article I would appreciate it if you would renounce all your mubo jumbo...
Have you found it?

Quote:

...Why do you think when you install a turbo on any car your intake charge temp increases? If the 2 are completely dissasociated form each other then your intake temp should remain the same but this is not true. The increase in temp is generated form the mixed gases coming from your exhaust. Maybe you shoudl read your own link a little better...
A turbo engine’s intake air's temperature increases primarily because as you compress a gas, you increase its temperature; conversely, as you decrease pressure, you decrease temperature. This is why air conditioners have compressors and a basic reason why they work, due to increasing and decreasing pressure. Depressurized gas [meaning refrigerant] goes to the cabin, while pressurized gas [meaning refrigerant] goes through a condenser (which is a sort of radiator/intercooler).

Here is a quote from me that I made on another Supra forum:
Quote:

If you ever take a spray can that is under pressure and hold it upside down and spray it to release the pressure, the can will have frost on it during a 65F warm day. You can also hold your finger under an air compressor’s release valve and see that the air coming out will be colder than the ambient air. This is the inverse of what happens with a turbo compressing and pressurizing air. When you compress air you create heat and so the inverse will be that when you depressurize air you will lose heat...

Quote:

...it still mixes the gases together. Hx gases as you should know are much better combustibles than o2...
So untrue, that I just don’t know where to start. After the fuel and oxygen are ignited, they lose their energy. Their energy gets translated into heat energy and then to mechanical energy. When energy is extracted from something, it would NOT be more combustible the second time around. Just like burning a log. You can't burn it twice, because it has already lost its energy.


That clears up the misinformation segment on this thread to a great degree.


This used to be my sig on another forum--I really hope that it is not necessary in the future.

While you are having a good time on this forum, I spent many hours in trying to fix this thread and the repercussions it has made. I don't think that is fair to me at all! People need to be accountable for what they do and what misinformation they post.

On some forums they would have banned you for all this inaccurate information without a good bye. If you don’t like the way I have handled it, then try your luck on other sites with this much misinformation and see how far you get...you will look back and thank me for being so lenient.

Please admit to being wrong when you find yourself wrong.
Don’t go on forever with many invalid excuses as to why you made false claims—that will save us (members and moderators) lots of time!

Some other issues that are on this thread is name calling. I don’t want to see any name calling in arguments because it only creates more problems.

There is even more that I can say but I have been stupid enough to spend this much time on it already.

In the future, I will definitely not spend as much time as I have on this case, but use this case as an example. (I often recycle my posts [as I even did in this case from quoting myself from another site]).


Let's learn and move on,

EDIT:

THREAD IS OPEN
I am leaving this open IF anyone has any true and useful information to add in--and can do it in a civil manner.
I am not opening it to read invalid excuses for every piece of misinfo to save face.
I don't expect people to always be right.
We are all wrong once in a while.
Peopel should, however, have a grasp of what they do and what they don't know, and not to pretend that they know things they don't.
