Is The RB 26 DETT a very good Engine ??

[MarioGTR]

Ok, here is a message I get sent to me from another forum, so I thought I'd set you straight - and everyone else on here.

LOL mario knows everything!

I've never chatted with a man that's more up himself. If you have an opinion different to him, he'll just call you names.

According to him the RB26 is the best designed motor ever bar none.

Oh and by the way - he didn't build a thing - he's just got lots of money to pay people to do things for him...

One word to best describe him - wanker!

Your entitled to your *opinions*. I'll stick to proven engineering *facts*.

I never said the RB26 was the best motor ever built. Once again, you not only fail to read what even you have written, but your effectively putting words (i.e.: bullshit) that I didn't say and touting them as coming from me.

I pay grease monkeys to do what I say. I select what to do and why to do it, I just can't be assed to do it myself - and why should I? I have far better things to do with my time.

It is nice to know that I don't have to bother replying to your posts in future. Atleast when I say something about someone, I'll say it to them in public.

I think your a jealous pissant with no real engineering experience - and your immature posts go towards proving it.

For the record: The RB26 is a very good engine, better than the VG series (which is what this thread was originally about) and in my testing, also better than the JZ. Nowhere did I say it is the best production engine in the world. That honour, most probably, goes to the S220.

Grow up.

Mario.

haha, wankers!

Everyone is a friggen expert!, well I only know one guy with a site about his car, with video's etc.. who isn't afraid to tell it how it is... not make up stories..

... what is a S220.. excuse my ignorance.

[MarioGTR]

The BMW S220 is the engine in the McLaren F1 road car. It was also the same engine (albeit modified) that was used in the first few tests by the BMW Formula 1 car in simulated race conditions.

The engine is a work of art, naturally aspirated, 6064cc, V12.

It uses an 86mmx87mm bore and stroke (note the use of an 86mm bore - there are real engineering reasons as to why well designed engines, like both the RB and JZ, also use this bore size).

All up they are capable of making some ~620 to 670~ BHP depending upon the state of tune and fuel used.

love the s220 engine in that case... love it

[GTS-4 Ben]

Oh yeah!. NICE!

V12.. 6L damn that is one mighty engine.

[matlowth]

And? You did do that didn't you? I posted a reply to someone earlier, and you replied with a childish insult. Hence where we are now.

Well the way you were writing your messages, it's fairly easy to come to that conclusion.

I never claimed to be an engineer - not my field of expertise - I'll stick with computers. And yes - I'd love to have as much money as you and as many cars - but thats never going to happen... Jealous - no.

Good on you for doing well, I still think you're a wanker.

Bugger....cant stand by and listen to this crap any longer.

My opinion on RB26 vs VG30 is noted earlier in the thread...RB26 anyday!

As for the remaining shit slinging I have a little suggestion...PUT UP OR SHUT THE F**K UP. Now to the best of my knowledge there is only one bloke in this argument who has had the balls to have done so thus far...video evidence of dyno runs, photographic evidence of most every other step in the process and has not been afraid to admit the odd disaster in the process.

When anyone else feels they can match the achievements and has the guts to prove it rather than just spouting about it then bring it on.

Mario. Keep on it, you're an inspiration to us GTR lads down here in kiwiland.

[MarioGTR]

Read back through the forums and you can see your original post, and my reply to it.

You posted utter crap that had no basis in fact and I told you outright you were talking bullshit.

You admit yourself that you haven't got a fucking clue as to what your talking about when it comes to engines (I quote: "it isn't your field of expertise") yet you still feel confident to pay out on others that clearly do.

So, I'm a wanker in your eyes, wow, some piss ant 22 year old thinks badly of me. I suggest that you just stick to your computers, maybe with overclocking Athlons you'll have more luck.

Mario.

[kabab]

Why is it that internet chat always seems to bring out the 5 year old in people can't you guys grow up and not shit stir ?

Not pointed at anyone just a general comment

Now back to the debate alot of thoes Supra's you see running in the states us lots of NOS where as the Jap's don't us NOS as much.

[GTS-4 Ben]

Wow..

Still think your are an idiot if you argue with someone you know has done more on the subject than you..

While your at it Matt tell Mario a better way to get 1000kw.. Wanker... hell if I had someone saying I was talking shit about what I do alot of I would be pissed off too..

GTR ALL THE WAY.!

So has everyone finnish venting yet? :o

I was wondering what is there to stop me from making my RB25 into a RB26? Any forseeable issues? like strength of crank / rods? Is the main weakness or stress point here the rod?

Mario, have you heard of a guy in Japan putting S2000 pistons into GTR's? as they have similar bore size. And what do you think of the S2000 piston.

Cheers

[matlowth]

Utter crap? WTF are you talking about. We've already got someone in this thread who has built a supra running these times with a stock motor.

Nuff said.

My eyes *laughs*.

OMG you're a funny man... Overclock my athlon hahah I'm killing myself. As I said. Wanker.

matt

[matlowth]

GTS4-Ben,

Are you retarded?!?!?! You surely must be. I never told him how to build the f'n thing. Good on him for trying.

I said that the supra in stock form is stronger than the gtr motor. Read my posts moron.

PS - I feel much better now that I've vented!

matt

[matlowth]

Zapf,

BTW - On a more technical note - The Rods seem to be the weak point in the RB25 motors... off the top of my head the bore is the the same b/w the two motors, but if you do the rods and pistons together, won't that up the compression, or am I off? A nice 1.6mm metal head gasket would probably help there I guess.

Don't know enuf about the crank to say either way.

Matt are you are retard... have you actually Got a Supra?? Or even worked on one..

Or are you just going on info from some Forum?
