Posted 18/06/09 04:45 PM Share Posted 18/06/09 04:45 PM I like Skylines and have built some fast ones, but I LOVE FORDS.At the end of the day,THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT for DISPLACEMENT.Ford has 4.0 ltr capacity.Skyline has, 2.0, 2.5 or 2.6 ltrs in capacity depending on the model.The 4.0 ltr will obviously produce more power and torque (to a degree,dependant on modifications) THAN THE SMALLER ENGINES.Larger displacement gives greater exhaust volume which allows larger turbos to be used with less lag,also allowing turbos to spool to full boost quicker.Larger capacity also allows for higher power levels to be made at lower rpm, less stress and wear on the engine.I like to build Skyline engines with an RB30 bottom end with twin cam 25 or 26 head.Using the larger 3.0 ltr displacement for the reason I have stated above.A full house RB26 or RB30/25/26 can make massive power with big boost and very high rpm, 10 000 rpm plus.A 4.0 LTR can produce these figures also but achieve it at a more sensible rpm.In a nutshell the 4.0 outshines the RB for POTENTIAL with bang for buck in my opinion.But I still must admit a TUFF GTR does it for me.Couldnt sleep so I thought I'd dribble some crap.

But put both of them on the strip and who wins. That is where the comparison should be in stock for $ for $ I know the answer to this but can u all put aside the I have 400 hp and smashed him of it or vice versa. Does anyone agree to this comparison being the fairest????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
