One thing I don't like about rb26 is it's a bit fragile...

My own car's engine blew up twice... before I bought it and after I sold it.

Plus, to get it to run big power, needs really good building and especially mapping.
Very rarely does anyone run an unopened engine with big power for long.

The 2jz and mated 6-speed are known to be very very strong.

it's fragile cos usually owners want big hp but keep forgetting to put in the support needed (forged this forged that) OR sloppy handiwork

actually RB....can push... ask any thai mechanic la..hahaha

unfortunately this 'ilmu hitam' is unknown to Malaysian mechs....no offence to them.... but lets face it, the things going on in thai workshops are scary man!
