Hay guys,
Im looking for a picture I have seen posted on this site and others but I cant find it again after much searching, Not sure if anyone has ever seen what im reffering to but its basicly a graph that has engines along the bottom, ranging from ca18 rb25/26 through to 1jz/2jzgte with a rating from junk (or something simular) to man/s spec.
Does anyone have a copy of this picture or can link me to it?
I really want to give it too my mate about his overly priced rb26 datsun 280zx conversion, and this would be great to print out and stick all over his house haha.

Not that is really anyone's business why id give him crap over it, But its not original, rb's into old z cars is a done and done thing, pretty much as original as a small block chev in a torana. Speshly when the conversion cost over 20grand. I just like to give him crap spending too much money and about jz's being stronger then "all mighty" rb26. Plus im bias agaist most "gtr" wank factor.
If he spent the same money on a 1uz and turbo'd it he would have a lot more power then his current 245rwhp not kw that once again cost 20grand to achieve. And that would be one hell of a awesome conversion that is dam unique and cheaper. Even if he just went a 1/2jz and poured the left over into a single turbo conversion, Would again have more power for less. A Toyota to nissan coversion and vise versa is cooler then a same make swap in my opinion.
But thats what mates do, we give each other cars crap so it strives us to make them better to prove the other guy wrong Plus I might give him some more credit if he did some of the work himself. We all do it too each other, healthy competition.

Andrew, Is it only on 9psi. But still! even at a 14psi tune, the figures aint going to blow me out of the water for that kind of money spent. Ive seen stock turbo rb25's make more power on the same boost.
1jz corona would be much fun
At the drags on sunday, seen "oke20" the 2jz corolla, now that is nutz youtube it

lew a fella down here in tassie converted a hyundai excel to RWD with a custom rear end with a 9 inch, full cage, mounted in front a Buick V6 with a big turbo of the side, bloody awesome lol.
Its so light, big sleeper to, has the factory wheels on it along with the factory granmah spec accesories
Laser should be SICK with a 2J in it
Thinking about putting a 1JZ in my 84 GK GSR sigma

thats what i was thinking
The other option is convert the standard 4G54 2.6 motor to EFI with the parts of the magnas (rebuilt motor 3 years ago/20,000), then slap a turbo on it with a E6X and 10 PSI boost for a happy 180RWKW , which is what i really want to do lol, keep with the roots, plus no screwing around with fabricating mounts etc and th large cost involved with a R154 gearbox as it would have to be manual
Then get the WTF look when i flutters past them HAHA

Mate get stuffed!
Be more of a tool??? you don't know anything about the way me and my mates get along. If you don't have anything to contribute to my question, then piss off. Wankers like you are the tools, I just have a bit of friendly competition between mates, keep your stupid remarks to yourself.
I would laugh at anyone who pours money into an engine and gets less power then a cheaper options.
