Battle of the Boosted. G35 TT Vs IS300 T
OK so I just bought a VQ35DE from a local Salvage yard yesterday and took it all apart last night and I'm getting a price quote from Titan Motorsports to get it built ASAP.
What's the big deal you say? Ever since I bought my G, my friend has been trying to beat me with his IS (with NO LUCk of course) especially after I got my Greddy tt's he gave up fror a while but now he's dropping a 2JZGTE into his IS and from what I hear it will be a beast.
Do you think a 2jzGTE IS 300 will beat a fully built G35 with Greddy TT's. (maxing both setups). -----> max PSI on both.
I hear he will break his Tranny at or beyond 350hp unless he get a getrag or a supra 6 speed tranny.
Any thoughts?

Is he just doing the block or the whole engine? The whole engine swap is exceptionally hard and theres alot of small details that are hard to work out despite what you may have heard.
The problem with the IS is traction due to the tires it can fit so even if he does have a nice size turbo hes not going to have much luck getting the power down to the ground...if he does though expect it to do just as well as any Supra. The tranny holds up decently depending on how well he can drive(even when abusing it, as long as he abuses it "right")

Um, you are likely in trouble...go to IS300.net and you will find a lot of IS's pushing over 500whp and as many running 10's and really low 11's--regularly...

Boost for boost the VQ ***** all over the 2JZGTE. Build your bottom end and its all over for him. He will need a big laggy turbo to make serious power while you will not even know what turbo lag is. Just compare a NA G35 to a NA IS300, its no contest...the same will be for a G35TT vs IS300 with a big laggy turbo. His car will not be fun to daily drive while yours will have a broad useable powerband.
3.5 > 3.0
3.5 > 3.0

I dont care how built a VQ is, the 2JZ-gte is untouched as of now. Good luck though, make sure you fully build your bottom end and boost a lot.
Try watching JGTC racing where turbo VQ 350Z has dominated.

I do, however, envy the stability of the 2jz platform. Those things are built like brick sh**houses.

taurran: I also respect the 2JZ platform but thake a comprable engine to that like the RB26 and place them head to head and you will quickly find out that any motor that was intended to be boosted will hold high psi alot better than the one intended for N/A.
To be quite honest, this rivalry agains my friend is completely capricious because I've had my TT's for over 5 months and I still havn't found anything out there that has beat me. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure I'll eventually find them but so far, M3's, E55 AMG's, Stang Cobra's, etc have been no match.
But I have no doubt that the 2JZGTE is a worthy oppponent to the VQ but is it only beacue its an iron block? What else besided small block manufacturing materials makes the 2JZ more powerful? After all the VQ35 is 500cc's larger than the 3.0 liter 2jz...

? I owned a RSP TT when you were in your play crib. Go on the supra forum, challenge any of those folks to a race. A supra has the 2jz-gte platform. The IS is lighter than a supra, I dare you to go race one and find out what happens. Dont open your mouth to something you dont know son, I didnt come on here and bash you. You can be the e-thug that you are, but when it comes down to it, if you havent owned a 2jz-gte you'll never know...
