What would be the best motor for like autoX: 7m? 1jz? 2jz? 1.5jz??? I heard that the 1jz is very responsive and has very little lag. Well what about a 1.5jz with ct12s??? Lets see what yall have to say.
Just Oughtta Curiosity....

Wasn't being an ass just wondered, choice of platform would change things somewhat 
(I try NOT to assume when answering questions as what I think is logical rarely pans out here)

ah its cool, i didnt think you were trying to be an ass, i did think you were joking around though hahah
but that is a pretty good PFR (personal forum rule haha)

If it were me I'd go 2J with a small tight roller turbo just for the setNforget nature in a Mk3, it'd go all day long and never miss a beat.
Mk2 or earlier maybe a 1J with stock twins and let it breathe.
AutoX isn't a nice place for a 7M to live due to the fragility of the cooling and Oil systems and the potential for complete failure...

for auto-x?
Step 1: Sell Supra
Step 2: Buy Miata
/thread :rofl:
Back to being serious, a BPU 7M has next to no lag anyway. Want to be fast in auto-x? Dump your money into making the engine reliable (oil system upgrades would be a big plug considering the g-forces) and then dump money into suspension.

The greatest car ever made a Camry. JK A70 is the platform. And well whatever motor I go with will get its cores dipped in a nice acid bath and get high quality parts.

What is BPU????Poodles;1573118 said:
Yep, basicly anything external to the engine (exhaust, downpipe, intake, intercooler, hard pipes, fuel system). Keep a BPU 7M over 3K in revs and it's insta-boost on a stock CT.
Hmm so I can rely on a 7m but what about the 1j/ 2j/ 1.5j??? Because I like the idea of ct12s on a 1.5jz.Poodles;1573148 said:
Only reason to go 1.5JZ is if you do a 1JZ swap and blow the bottom end or want more power. Full 2J will stomp it.

well to build a reliable 7m follow this thread http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?109118-Race-Ready-7M
Otherwise a 1j or 2j would probably suit your needs stock or with just some minor oil and cooling mods. the 1j is a good engine but the 2j has so much more potential than the 1j.
What is the point of doing a 1.5jz? Ususally the only reason people do that is because they blow the 1j and can source a ge/gte shortblock for pretty cheap.^he beat me to it.
Really if you have the chance I would say 2j, It is really a great running powerful motor. (this coming from a 1j car owner...)
Lag is proportional to size of turbo for any engine, If your keeping a stock turbo lag is almost non existent.
