Whenever Herman comes on the channel, I know it's going to be a great informative episode
The 2JZ is a frigging monster ❤️🙌✅
Love your vids! Too bad RB's weren't built like JZ's.

I don't own nor have I ever owner a car with JZ, but still I find this interesting as some of the techniques could be used to find weakpoints on other blocks.
I like such comparison. 2jz - how hard to destroy this block. Rb - how easy to destroy :D No more words needed.

What a beast of an engine!
Take notes folks, the top fuel hoops/LeMans Ring kept it sealed until the block failed ;)
All your tech videos is outstanding, even tho i left the Japanese car scene a few years ago. It inspires what the next big thing is in tomorrows Motorsport accessories. The reason i'm subscribed on multiple accounts. Keep up the awesome work! 👍👍👍
Excellent very interesting to know the limit. It’s always been a gray area until now 🙌🏽
I would love to see you sonic test a BMW M50/M52 iron block (or even a alu block if the liners dont mess up readings) if you come by a chance to do so in the future- (84mm bore B25/B28 is likely thickest with 7mm of material between the bores)
Impatiently, still waiting on the 2J intergraded main brace girdle! 🤩
Ahahaha try getting those numbers from an Rb.

Thank you sir this is absolutely awesome 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you for your time in making this
Wow...that is absolute total destruction. I've only ever seen one engine blow like that and that was a D16Z6 1.6L SOHC VTEC Honda engine with a small .48 A/R Ford Thunderbird turbo and a very terrible tuner. That block actually did split in two. The only thing holding the block together was the head and the oil pan. Two of the pistons had literally shattered in the block, and it was only set for 10 psi! It wasn't my engine and I wouldn't have driven it if it was running as poorly as this engine was, but I got to help swap it for a good JDM D15B VTEC engine with the same turbo kit in the middle of winter (after we got about 10 inches of snow) in my buddy's front yard and we didn't have an engine hoist or anything other than a half functioning floor jack. It's a good thing I'm fairly big and strong...because I had to carry the engine over to the car, push it up under the engine bay, drop the car down, and lift the engine and trans into place to put the motor mount bolts in. Ahhh...memories.
Jeezy... My Lord. Destruction at it's best.🏁🏁🏁🏁
2j the world!
Awesome stuff. I really wish you guys would get in-depth like this with SR’s too.
Herman is finally back, hooray! Insta like!
Would be good to see more evo love! 4g63 testing 4g64 testing etc etc
My goodness! Makes my 400kw 1JZ seem mundane and so long as it's well maintained, should keep on going at that power level for quite some time.
You can crack an RB block just by staring at it😂.

Would love to see a comparison on the big displacement inline 6 blocks *TB48 vs Barra vs 1FZ*
Glad I own 2jz and not rb
What, no Barra comments yet ? Must be a slow day. Jay from Real street was campaining a 2jz Supra runningin the 6sec consistently. Jay said he moved for the 2jz factory cast block to a billet block because the 2jz block deck warps at around 1800hp. In comparison, the Barra can make 2500hp only partially grouted, and can then could drive on the road for drag week.

Only 76psi of boost 🤣 ahahahah

I do appreciate your knowledge & videos just very disappointed in the RB manufacturing. Have you ever tested the early L series Nissan/Datsun inline 6's?

@@clutchkickpj693 I know. I know there is also no replacement for displacement… however from the ticknesses of the bore walls, I would tend to think the 1jz ones might be thicker (smaller bores due to smaller capacity)… thus stronger???
@timvanderstarre9021
2 жыл бұрын
@@JesseSpec the bores aren't smaller, it still is an 86mm bore, but due to the reduced deck height it should be a stronger design indeed. But that doesn't mean you can make more horsepower with a 1jz. The 2jz more than compensates for this "weaker" design with its increased displacement. Technically the 1jz would take just a bit more boost but the 2jz will make more power with the same amount of boost pressure. I hope this makes sense

Still better than an RB 😂

Yet i know of 1 persons 2JZ has blown up twice … and barely done any track time on it. yikkesss must say alot about the builder or the tune.

Any and all oem cast blocks will fail at this point.
sonic test not needed under 2000hp probably thousand as world wide that don’t sonic test
Show us ya crack

RB26 100% weaker. You have a front diff attached to the oil pan. The engine is rocking left to right under load and unload, meanwhile when the front differential is enabled the differential is causing forward and back movement. They are fighting each other.

@@mikec3142 but the front diff gives the car better ability to put the power down. The better flowing head of the RB26 and the 6 throttle bodies gives it better throttle response and a more race car feel. Everything is as it is for a reason. Yes, clearly the 2JZ block can handle 2000hp but that's only useful for drag racers. There are a lot more uses for an engine than extreme drag racing.
