Yes, what an engine transplant!

I dunno, seems kinda wierd. They swapped in the same style motor just a different company. Unless it was a non turbo originally. Then i guess its cool.

hondaguy · 03-20-2004, 03:31 PM

doesnt the supra come with more hp stock than a rb?????but its still a nice swap now lets see if they can put it in a civic

Ricer240sx · 03-20-2004, 03:37 PM

im pretty sure the RB has more power, but dont quote me on that

and i wanna see that motor in a FD!!!

Can anyone get me a FD chasis???

Earlier model Mk4 Turbos had 300hp, and the later models had 320hp. The RB26TT has 280hp I think.

brokenben · 03-20-2004, 05:39 PM

rice! whats the point of that swap?

aa87 · 03-20-2004, 06:21 PM

actually in japan, they both were capped at 280 hp, but since there wasnt a hp cap in the US, they were higher. The rb26 never came to the us, so without the restricting equipment, we'll never know

The RB is said to be smoother than the 2JZ. That's the reasoning I've heard behind that swap

i remember a while back, that there was a mkiv with a RBfrom top secret. it put out a lot of HP

Gootch · 03-20-2004, 07:47 PM

The 2jz has a higher HP potential, but RB has a higher rev...

JtWo · 03-20-2004, 07:55 PM

woo hoo finally a post about supras....lol....well....the well the 2JZ has more low end power, but both engines are both on the same par because they both are really really responsive engines

aa87 · 03-20-2004, 08:10 PM

Heres another site, with the exact same cars but they have an english portion that is easier to understand, but kaizousha.com seperates rx-7, skyline and supra while king buyer only has supra for its own section
