Hi Guys,

what do you think, I have opportunity to buy S50B30 under 2000euros, everything in engine is ok.

2JZ for 2800 euros (without gearbox) from half cutted japan car (from Polish dealer).

I would like to build single turbo setup to E36 coupe chassis. What do you think ? Which is more reliable in EU conditions ?


I have many spare parts for e36. (gearboxes ...differentials ..etc)
Now I have fully functional e36 coupe with s50b32

My goal is 450-500 hp and 550-600 Nm. (maybe more)

Both engines are good many that runs about 1000hp or even more. What are your plans more then singel turbo? Singel turbo with stock engine or are you gonna open it and change connecting rods, pistons and so on? aftermarket ecu ?

yes, I would like to open engine and change rods and pistons. After that single turbo setup + standalone ecu.
2JZ negatives - engine and gearbox mounts, clutch and right gearbox, drive shaft. acccessories (cooler, power steering, brake system)

S50 is much more simple to swap. It is better to use S50b32 or S50B30 ?
Which one is stronger ? I am expecting 500-600hp

Jag tycker 2jz har blivit lite överhypad. Visst, det är en jävligt go maskin. Den tål otroligt mycket med orginal bottendel.
Men skall man ändå byta kolvar och stakar osv. Då är en s50/54 mycket bättre. Lämnar redan som sugmotor 340hk!
Du behöver inte porta toppen eller byta kammar.

Men om du nöjer dig med 600hk så är 2jz ett bra val då du inte behöver byta kolvar eller stakar då.
Polarens s13 med 2jz som går i drifting var vi uppe vid ppf med. lämnade 640whp. Helt orginal i maskinen.
6265 turbo och maxxecu, sen ett klokt bränslesystem.

Mvh Joel
