1jz in an R33

[Bon Bon]

We were running an RB25DET with a lot of cooling mods, proper fuel setup and mapped well and killed 3 engines at circa 400bhp.

Depends on how you drive them really, but RB25s don't like being abused, certainly not compared to a 1J

LOL didnt say it would devalue it - indeed you could charge a premium for a JZ liner

just stating fact that the size of market is vastly decreased as it appeals to drift fans only

Bunny has not had much luck with this car modifying game so was trying to steer him in right direction

I dunno, average Skyline buying monkey wouldn't know what engine was in it anyway...

I had someone at French car show come up to me in the 32 and ask what kind of car it was cos they'd never seen anything like it. lol

For fun skidding, standard cars with basic mods are the best.

My dads running 503bhp with stock internals, however the car is a weekend car, not a high revving on the limit drifter. Best to be on the safe side tho!
