I purchased a 1jz . This for drag. I here alot of guys say that the 1j isn't a drag motor. What I want is opinons on the matter. Before I put the motor in the car if I need to go 2j bottom I will. I felt that I would be able to make up for the torque with rev but what I need is opionons not a debate.
Which jz series motor to use.

- Start date
Maybe its just me, but i think the 1j makes for a great drag motor. Combined with a large single turbo, it makes most of its power up top where its effective in dragging. With a big turbo, good management,4.30 rear, some headwork, and a nice valvetrain, i think a 1j car will fly at the track.
Not that i'd put one in my car of course

cause its in comparison to the 7m. which of course makes the 1jz torqueless. against a honda, now that would be like the torque godSuperSupraKid said:
1jz not a drag motor? yeah right...when i find that drag race between the 1jz and the 2jz i shall post it up.

whatever you say.
I've never been in a race with a 7M where the 7M's super l33t torque made it hard for me to keep up or win.
From a dig, a slow roll, or higher roll.

again, whatever you say dude
I've pulled on a 7M car that dynoed 350hp/385tq, a t04e equipped car, a stock CT26 bpu car, just to name a few.
I can have 1 or all these members confirm if you don't believe as they all post here.
all this talk about torque is ridiculous imo. if you want real torque go buy a high displacement v8 or diesel... small displacement turbo I6s are not for you.
