NO LOL

J4RS makes more torque than the J4R, if you want more you need more CC or Diesel fuel and a Turbo.

Could go for 87mm pistons and a 88/92mm diesel crank which will give you 2.1/ 2.2 litres... or there's always the 3.0 v6 option Wink

J4RS makes at least 115lb/ft from 1750rpm right through to limiter, if thats not enough low down torque you need to either buy a tractor or take a serious look at your driving style.

or fit a V6, well over 170 LBFT from 2k to peak of 200 ish dropping to 160 at the limiter.

considering the weight of the engine it's really another name for the tractor option.

Rubbish. Its all alloy so not as much as you might think my friend. Trust me when I say the handling is 98% of what it was and its a lot quicker than a GTi6 Wink

Next time you are in the UK give me a shout for a test drive Smile

I will. Big grin



i can tell you that those 2% difference means a lot ,
i had ZX 1.9 Volcane (all alloy engine)
and it was beautifully balanced.
when i switched
to ZX16V , i lost the faith in the chassis,
the more violent weight transfer when you move beyond the grip level frightens me, it's like you need to walk barefoot where the floor now covered with rusty nails.
the weaker & lighter ZX handled better .
i deduced the same for the V6 Vs RFS .

if you lost faith in the ZX 16v chassis you best not drive a 306 gti6 as they have even more of the weight % up front for some reason.

its a bit silly comparing the 16v directly with the volcane, as they had different dampers and springs, they were much stiffer front and rear, especially rear roll bar.

My volcane used ZX16V dampers ,Eibach stiffer & lowered springs & Yoko A520 195/45/15 .

I drove the GTI6 , the steering is less sharp
then the ZX16V.

the lost of faith is something that i can deal with, i needed the time to train my self
to anticipate it's reaction.

no , just the Eibach Pro-kit in the front,
and lowered the ride in the back, still it handled well.
i planned more , but then i decided that what i really wanted all the time was the ZX16V.

see ?

that would be where yoyu went wrong, stiffen the front and not the rear and you'll get more understeer and snap oversteer.

my zx 16v does not do that.

My car is far from standard though now. I agree 2% makes a difference, but I have yet to move weight (battery) backwards and fit stiffer rear springs. The damping setup is rather good Smile

do you have the weight of the engine ?
the Mi16 132KG
the GTI-6 ? (i reckon about 20 KG more)
the V6 3L ?

(by the way the BMW 330I 6 inline weights 120KG )

I seem to remember the XU10J4RS being 150kg with no inlet, exhaust, starter, pas, alternator but with the rallye aux bracket and flywheel.

The V6 I'm not 100% sure about but was told it was 175 - 180 without ancillaries (starter, pas, alternator). The gearbox weighs 10kg more, the flywheel on mine is 7.1kg total, the clutch will be a tad heavier and the shafts are about 1.5 extra each (but are very modified). It also uses more oil (+1L) and coolant (+ about 4L).

If you consider that I don't have aircon, have significantly lighter wheels, tyres, suspension and brakes then there really isn't much in it over a phase 3 gti6. Any weight gain and distribution issues can be overcome fairly easily. It is a fair bit quicker than a GTi6 or my old engine. Its unstressed and has a fair bit of potential, not that I have the money to realise that!

I'd love one of those BMW engines - will probably be in the next car I own tbh. Shame its too long to fit transversely!

Come on though - would you bother with that engine if you'd gone to the hassle of getting it behind the front seats? V10 everyday... oh yeah you've got one Ninja Whistle LOL
