Not to be an ass but the other car is way cooler...................... it just takes a lot more to build what they did........... fox bodies are a dime a dozen
Thats because they look good. You don't see 240s because they are ugly as a dogs ass with shit hanging out of it.Originally Posted by Big J

thank God for another car that runs in the 5's
you wouldn't happen to know Casey Allen would ya?
I've been trying to get some of these kills forum guys out to Eatonton for the longest time now.
im thinking that fox would own the 2J 240 from a dig but from a roll i would probably stick with the 2J just because fox bodies can turn the fastest et's with the slowest trap speeds ive ever seen ha ha .
LOL I totally disagree.. Almost every 2j is turboed most fox's aren't. So to give a fair race a turbo 2j vs a turbo fox.. the outcome is a givin reguardless the race...Originally Posted by Capt._Ron

True very few foxes are tuboed but they foxed also have at least 2 more liters of displacement over the 2j. What im saying is that foxes are able to run quick times with low trap speeds because the are torquey and get of the line. Supras dont get off the line for shit and I imagine that a 240 with a 2j would probably be about the same. That being the case a fox that could be a 2j in the quarter might not be able to get the 2j from a roll because the 2j do have turbos and pull strong on the top end once the turbo/turbos are spooled.Originally Posted by crafty

How many twin turbo foxes do you see. Ok yes if you turbo a fox it will go fast DEE DU DEE its a fairly large motor with forced induction they all go fast.Originally Posted by 1civic
Your average weekend racer does not have a twin turbo fox. I dont think the one in the video is twin turboed either. A mildly built 5.0 does not excel on the track because of its top end power period. 2j that can get of the line however will run like 13's at 130 just ask allen.
not all supras are slow off the line but mine is!!! the reason most are pigs off the line is b/c of a thing called power-to-weight ratio. that's why dave puts 2j's in 240's. simple math, my supra weighs 3550 lbs. dave's car weighs less say roughly a 1000 lbs less w/o telling the exact #. guys who drag know what that means. it's called power off the line b/c it takes less torque to get the weight off the line so the hp can take over down the track!! oh, and the main reason most fox's are able to launch so hard actually has nothing to do with the power they make, it's called suspension. there is no car that i know of that you can find more go fast suspension parts for than a mustang. every manufacturer is making them b/c there are so many mustangs on the road it is more than profitable to do so. i can take my stang, put 500 whp in it and go 12's or i can go mid 10's in it all depending on one thing!! SUSPENISON!! dont believe me, ask the stang guys on here or call jeff down at prospeed and ask him how fast his car went last weekend at steele and how much power he has. no bashing intended at all, just facts and as always myOriginally Posted by Capt._Ron

Power to weight?? Maybe ive been hearing to much bullshit about the almighty 2j but this is the motor that will make 800 hp on a stock bottom end right? by my math your average 600 hp supra (not to unbelievable) ha about 5.9 lbs/hp and if you have a fox coupe that wieghs 3000 lbs and has 400 hp (also not unbelievable) 7.5lbs/hp. Granted these are just theoretical #'s. Not to be a jackass but I do know a little about foxes mainly because my father currently owns about 25.( about half are junk). I know that suspension and tires are very important in drag racing and Ive been saying the whole time that torque is why foxes are fast in the quaterOriginally Posted by NevrNufTorq
! Torque is not as help full at high speeds because torque=force x distance(nothing to do with speed) however power = work/time (does relate to speed) So if im not mistaken hp is more important at higher speeds. Higher speeds as in a 60-160 highway roll.
None the less "Scholars maintain that the Germans founded Saaan Diago about 100 years ago which of course means a whales vagina in German."![]()
LOL it's amasing how a high LSA on that cam calms the lope down... huh eric.. ha ha So How about my powerglide parts... get those together yet? call me and let me know.. I just have to ask... Why didn't you show the actually engine in that video.. Oh wait because you can't see the engine due to the 18 massive selniods... LOL

its hard to beat a fox body with the bottle.
Regardless of what a 2J can make, V8s have TORQUE

.. If you look into the car a Little more you would see the 60' s are low, YOU don't need Big Power to run fast 1/4 times.. Get your car to HOOK and your times will drop... :boobies: ..
For sureOriginally Posted by 1civic
I totally agree with you there. There is no "replacement for displacement" as the old mantra states.
Overprice, you 're absolutely right. But they are still badass cars nonetheless except when it comes to the weight of the vehicle, which is the weak point of the car. Damn Toyota reinforces ever fucking part on their cars, for example my mr2 weighs about 2800lbs. I like supras b/c they are fast in a straight line and can handle the twisties. Going fast in a straight line mainly comes down to the driver and suspension.Originally Posted by 1civic

I know all about the 32V terminators cobra throw the big KB on it, feed it enough fuel and you have a monster ha ha. You can ask Mr. Kidd though, I am not a fan of the 2j swaps in 240s. 240s with sr's are perfect to me( I have one ha ha). Just the right about of power in a light chassis and sexy looks (lol ha ha ha). I dont really know anyone with a 2j but ill see if I could see up something is CCR's 750- 900 hp R33 monster that should be finished this summer.
