yeahahahahahhaa
I was thinking about tearing down my house and building another so I can add one more cabinet for cereal.
my stock house setup:
1000sqrfeet @ 2bdrm/2bath and $130,000
new NA-tural wood cabinet installed:
1010sqrfeet @2bdrm/2bath and $150,000
I can't imagine how sweet it would be if I could also put a fan in the living room! 3 speeder with 5 blades!

lol @ tags.
its really quite a bit of work to me for little gain IMO. its like trying to decide on buying orange juice at the store or picking from your orange tree so its fresher...... its still orange juice, and is it worth the extra effort to have about the same thing you already have?

it would be pretty sick youre right. prolly have to run something like 215s out back to tame that shit.
I hate my NA 2j.......maybe because I have a heavy ass IS300 but still....boost or its not even worth it to me

+1. it's a good alternative to the gte if your gonna go boost. Keep stock compression and run 9 psi and you'll make very decent power.
but ppl always get greedy. thats why motors blow. "just a little more power....BOOM!...fuck......."

yea 9si is max for stock compression on the na. the good thing about the na 2j is that whenever you wanna add more boost you have two options, thicker headgasket or gte internals.
i dont know who would ever plan on doing this and leaving it na lol.
yes this is a dumb swap in that case
i plan on supercharging mine in the future because it doesnt have anything near what i want to leave it the way it is, i mean it sounds unique but idgaf about that
it should make decent power on 8 to 9 psi

All you have to do is run a 2mm HG and ARP studs and you can run 600 wheel horse power on factory internals. A guy named "Dave H" is already doing this. He uses it as his daily and runs 93 octane all day long.
The N/A 2JZ's compression is some where in the vicinity of 10:1/10.5:1 with the 2mm HG it will drop it to about 8.5:1, which is perfect for boost.
It's definitely a good transplant for high horsepower if you take the right route, and they definitely don't swallow your wallet whole if you know what you're doing.

I like the idea, its cheaper than an SR swap (using a W58) and makes the same power with a smoother powerband. Yeah its heavy but whats the chance of you blowing it up like that? Plus I would like to see this become common just because I detest how 4cyl's sound.
*edit* I just thought about it ALL three of my cars have straight 6's hahaha

we had an is come in at LOPB with an s/c on it. I didnt get to drive it up according to the guy who did, it was slow as balls. it sounded good though
why not just get the 2j n/a, buy the cp piston and eagle rod package from ebay ($1200), balance the crank, put it all together with a turbo or even the stock twins($300) and you have a beast of a 240. i've had way too many friends with sr problems. driftmotion even does a parallel twin turbo conversion for the sequential twins for the 2j with all garret internals. more n/a power+reliability vs less turbo power+lots of problems. i think we found a winner here
