What do you guys think of this idea? Put a 2jz in a corvette C6? Good idea or should I pass on the crackpipe ?

I personally think it's wrong and we'd go to hell for it, but could a 2JZ even fit in a C6's engine bay? The engine bay is so small!

Are you serious right now? lol




Ps. I say hell no and this is coming from a guy with a 2j mustang... Keep is lsx!

Are you serious right now? lol

:lol:

Plus doesn't the 2JZ weigh about 100 lbs more?

 

[K_SHAN]

A great war would be started between the JZ series and LS series.

we are out numbered and out mand.

 

[ShotgunFacelift]

Maybe a C4 or even a C5 if you're really dead-set. For the amount that auto C5s are going for these days it might be a good idea to swap in a manual 2JZ. Hm...

Tell me about it!:lol:

I'm still laughing at the "The LS1 is better than the 2JZ OR the 2JZ is better because..." thread that was over on LS1TECH:lol::lol:

What if you put the 2jz with a corvette drivetrain in a completely different car?

 

[ruiner27]

hey, over here man
lemme take a hit!

If you are speaking about a T56 there was information about it a while back. Problem is I think the rear end actually has to be pretty tall. To get that to work would be quiet a hassle.

I would just run the LSX motor that was in there but thats just me I guess.

 

[crisco3]

No, I would not replace a proven engine and transmission with another proven engine and transmission.

 

[57trimMKIII]

There is a red C4 with a 2JZGTE swap.

Personally, I don't care for it. The car came with an L98, why not leave the L98 in it?

 

[Gtikyle]

Umm...C4's are gay?

A c5 would be pretty cool IMO

 

[HolyShiznit]

Corvette C6 is either an LS2 or a LS3....both proven to make low 700's on stock bottom ends...

I agree, why swap one proven setup with another proven setup? Even a C5 wouldn't make sense to swap.

 

[turbodunn97supra]

2JZ 3.4L Stroker... Yes but only if you have one laying around and you don't feel like investing in your LS.

This Scenario = Doubtful

 

[TNH]

I normally love all engine swaps, but this would be a strange one.
I wouldn't ever remove an LSx or 2JZ-GTE from any car. LSx and 2JZ-GTE's go into cars that don't have one or the other, IMO.

 

[GetawayInMoscow]

Find a high mileage/blown motor C5 and it could get interesting.

Only problem I see is where you are gonna find room for a big single on the pass side....I guess if you relocate the battery and fuse box you could have a lot of room right there.

 

[agm]

pass on that crackpipe

but wow i would LOVE to post a video of such a car on my friends facebook. (he owns bolton c6 z06)
hell of a car that thing is. engine response is orgasmic.

but dont worry i rape him 24/7 on the highway

 

[jdmuscle]

Imagine if I swapped the motors in my cars....

2JZ in my C6 Z06 and a LS7 in my Supra... I think I might get shot by a Corvette Forum member or a Supra Forum member for sure... LOL

 

[ZishanM]

I think the lsX motors are great but I am for all seeing this swap. I don't really see it being that different. They already use built auto's for the fastest Z06's. Remember the transmission is connected to the diff in the rear, and the trans is connected to the motor via the torque tube.
