The 1JZ/2JZ are in a different league to the RB25 and RB30, if your looking for a motor that you can get a ton of power out of without opening it up then a 1JZ or 2JZ is what you want. Both are good for about the same power give or take 50hp. If you want another motor to consider then throw the 1UZFE on the table, its an all-alloy 4lt V8 with quad cams and 32 valves, can be had for $1500 with auto.

4cyl......:embarrass
Try a I6.
Personally I wouldnt never consider any of these swaps. Why not just buy a Supra or Skyline and save the $$$ and heartache.

My bad i wrote 4 cos most rice bangers run 4cyl. The reason you wouldn't buy a supra or a skyline is fristly the rice factor and secondly because its something different. Then think of the power to weight ratio of a vn with an rb26 conversion. Not sure if you would have to trick the ecu to think its running a 4wd...? The godzillas absolutely destroyed the v8 supercars and were banned from racing as a result. I wonder why.....?

rb series are easy to get hold of.. the 1jz/2jz were on the cards if availabilty comes. but price is another thing im looking in. cos my car needs a change..
