RB26 vs 2JZ

[Music] we're going to pick the famous rb26dett against the two jersey GTE so twelve-year-old farm boys get your tissues ready and domestic fans hide your LS swaps we're gonna be comparing these two engines because the defamed rivalry and their technical similarities we'll be looking at the latest versions of each engine found in the Supra and the r34 GTR the RB 26 was available in our 32 or 33 and r34 GTR as well as the study of 260 RS but for this video we're gonna be focusing on the r34 Xabi 26 the displacement of the RB 26 was 2598 CCS or rounded up to 2.6 configuration was an inline six double overhead camshaft 24 valve with paired individual throttle bodies on the intake 86 millimeter bore by seventy three point seven millimeter stroke power output was 276 horsepower at 6,800 rpm while talk was 289 pounds foot at 4,400 boost came courtesy of two parallel turbos pushing up 14 psi standard in a to jay-z's case in Japan it came in RS Tovey RS Dovie 300 and super rzd while in America you only got it in the super turbo the displacement was 2997 CCS or three liters rounded up configuration was an inline six double overhead camshaft with 24 valves dimensions were 86 millimeter bore by eighty six millimeter stroke hence why it had the increase in displacement of the RB 26 power was 276 horsepower at 5800 rpm and torque was 320 pounds worth 4,000 boost was 11 psi thanks to two sequential turbos following enough in the r34 and the Supra both cars could feature a very similar 6-speed Getrag manual box that could even interchange parks the biggest difference being that our 34 gearbox had front drive shafts we've got two experts on each engine to give us their take on each one strengths and weaknesses because of the shorter stroke found on the RB 26 it can Rev much higher the block was born as a race engine and detuned for the road so increase in power is easy and reliable RB 26 is more linear power curve makes it very predictable when on a throttle they can be expensive as GTRs once in great numbers head gaskets and oil pumps are the weak link and can cause problems at both stop power and when upgraded oil filters and spark plugs can get stuck and become a pain to remove being one of the most over engineered blocks of all time means that even high mileage badly maintained engines can hold up to abuse the wider variety of cars provided with the GTE engine means that they're more common to find the two jersey had a much beefier crack than that are b-26 with larger bearing journals and bigger bearings so failure at stock power is far less common if you want to change the oil pump either the engine or the subframe needs to be removed rod bolts pistons and main caps got all the points of weakness when shooting for a big power 2jz build thousand seats can become pitted and cause a drop in compression different brands tuning combinations of parts supporting mods and more will always show different results so if you're about to comment the offer Enders a 2,000 horsepower Supra and they've only done a can and air filter on it you can save it we're going to talk about the only two power levels the internet seems to care about how much power basic performance mods get you and how much to hit the magic thousand horsepower number basic bolt on mods will help you push up towards the 400 brake horsepower mark provided the car is tuned correctly but I'll be 26 Bach was known to take 500 horsepower in race trim so it's block is incredibly strong however a thousand horsepower will require a full internal build as well as a threaded bolt on parts which can run well into the 50s $20,000 age the GTE will see very similar circle 400 brake horsepower results with basic performance upgrades if you're looking to build a reliable thousand brake horsepower Supra you can be looking at a bill of over fifty thousand pounds but if you're looking to hit that thousand brake horsepower number and care nothing for longevity it can be achieved fairly easily with fifteen to twenty thousand pounds worth of bolt-on parts with only a set of camshafts and valve springs needed for the engine internals we'll just be looking at Europe and America for this one in the USA a GTE can run you around three thousand to three and a half thousand dollars while on RB 26 we'll likely see you spend near to five thousand five and a half thousand dollar mark in Europe you'll be looking to spend between two and a half to three thousand euros for a GT e or if you want an RB twenty six you'll be spending more like four and a half - five finally we've come to what many think is the most important category below very similar the two engines do have distinct sounds you can really hit a high-strung race derive sound in the hobby 26 [Music] the Obi 26 versus 2jz argument will never end each have their weaknesses and their strengths but which one would you have
