You're a ******* dumbass.
No you're a total retard for calling 2js junk when they've been significantly faster than LS's with less than half the displacement.

Why can't people just respect other cars and give props when credit is due? In the end, we are all car guys who have a passion for building and loving fast rides, regardless of make and model.

The numbers the vette makes are about right for that setup. The LS9 cam is a waste though so I would swap that out for a custom spec'd blower cam and throw a alky control dual nozzle kit on. Other than that make sure the clutch is up to task.

With that said the Supra was pushing his **** in and you can't take nothing away from it. A a few friends with supra's ranging from 800-1350rwhp, all great cars. I'll run him if he'll be there.

I found a picture that perfectly illustrates your mindset.

Because narrow-minded rejects.

The 2JZ is an excellent platform for boost, not so much n/a of course. But its definitely one of the best/most durable stock engines ever produced. I guess that's what makes it so gay... right Hio?

Duh, because boost. Build a ls3 for 23lbs of boost, how much power is it going to be making? How much power is a 2jz going to be making on 10lbs of boost, like the corvette?
You can argue displacement and boost numbers, but it is irrelevant. Each setup is different and cool in its own way. And that doesn't make it junk.
It is like the idiots that hate on Hondas and fords because of the brand, even if it is faster than their bolt-on fourth gen.

So let us all be ******* and bash on everything that isn't to our liking. Hurrah
Brah.

Never have been a fan of them. I don't mind engines that can make power either n/a or fi. But if they can only make decent power with boost then yes , they are pretty much **** to me.

Tip for the day. The engine that flows more air n/a will flow more under boost. The line is not linear. .. the greater the boost the greater the gap.
