one of those questions: between 2JZ-GTE and RB26DETT

peter88 · 12-13-2006, 10:53 AM

hey yall, just wondering between the 2JZ-GTE and the RB26DETT
wen u start pouring money into the engine which engine would benefit from making more power than the other if u put the same amount and same mods into each these engines?

only trying to get peoples opinions on which engine is better thats all

any comments will be appreciated

peace out

you could probably get more out it the 2JZ, but both are good engines

2jz hands down
the block itself is solid
barely, and i mean minimum work needed for it
even the internals are strong
800 hp proven and tested
and i dunt even know if thats the max

dont u think 800hp from a stock internal engine is abit bull? i mean that is way too much for a stock engine, wouldnt it be around 600 or 700?

800hp is enough to run wat 10's?? if it were true than evryone would buy a supra with the 2JZ

Isphius - Yes, Everyone would buy a 2jz TT supra, If they could afford the 30-40k market value.

if u ever get a chance to go to chicago next summer
as much as i hate this guy, his car is fast
mkiv single turbo conversion
800 rwhp, 9.5 all day 1/4 mile

and its no bull, cuz like i said if u can come to chicago
youll see

you know why not?
cuz that car has at least 100k to it thats why

another good example of stock internals reaching high HP is the 5.0 mustangs with forged internals. So yeah it's possible on certain cars.

Actually, the 2jz-gte longblock (head+shortblock), totally bone-stock other than cams, has proven itself to reliably handle 850rwhp (1000hp at the crank). There are several examples over 800rwhp using a stock 2jz-gte on T04R.com, and other websites...here's just one:

Also note that 850rwhp is nowhere near the max for the stock 2jz-gte, it's just the number that's often quoted as a max-with-reliability/longevity. However, almost 1100rwhp (almost 1300hp at the crank) has been produced on the dyno with a bone-stock 2jz-gte shortblock!

I agree that someone that hasn't heard about the 2jz-gte's capabilities might think that 800rwhp or even 800hp at the crank on a stock engine sounds like bull, but it really isn't!

Yep an 800hp Supra can easily run 10s with the right rims&tires, and a good driver. I'd have to guess that the 2jz-gte's capabilities are part of the reason that the MK4 Toyota Supra has kept such a high resale value.

The mistake you're probably talking about is trying to run too much boost on pump gas...and yep that'll wreck any engine (no matter how much you spend on the internals). Properly tuned, and with a sufficient amount of octane in the tank, 800rwhp with a bone stock 2jz-gte is a walk in the park.

Sorry about the digression/thread-jacking ... to be honest I don't know much about the RB26DETT, but I have heard that it can't support anywhere near as much hp as the 2JZ-GTE in bone-stock form. Fully built, both the RB26DETT and the 2JZ-GTE are monster engines capable of 2000hp+. Fwiw, I agree with ARZ that the 2JZ-GTE has better support in the US...I'm not sure if that is also true in Australia though. My admittedly biased opinion is that a 2jz-gte would be the best choice.

lol. Its good the supra can make/take power that easily, Because it doesnt take 800hp to run 10 seconds, Only in a supra. I love these cars to death, But they are not drag racers. Any other lighter car or any car with a rear axle (ie, american) could run a 10 sec quarter mile with high 500s. Even the front wheel drivers (i hate these guys) are getting into the 8s and 9s with as little as 550 or 600. I dont mean to make fun of the supra though, I wish i had one
