>>29067656>Krautshitze germans as is tradition overcomplicate shit, but they're regularly doing 125k before needing major repairs and often on their 6th owner. >Built by niggersSee pic, jabroni>Inferior to the 1JZIt just isn't. Nobody is paying $35,000 for a 1JZ to do 1200hp >Already on listdidn't ask>almost equal to revving to 10,000rpmthe Ford 300 will take 35psi of boost and exactly zero oil changes to hit 100,000 miles. Shut up.

>>29067746To be fair, only a welfare recipient would understand the importance of the Caterpillar C12
>>29067638>listing a 5M-GTE which doesn't exist>listing the RB25 but not the JZ retard threadetard
>>29067746>Drop lingo that only welfare recipients use, please.I bet this same anon calls things "based" in his spare time as if he isn't contributing to the problem.
>>29067638OM606
>>29067774frfr no cap, unc
>>29067795Even when it's ironic, mocking, or shedding light on the problem, it's still contributing. The best way to deal with this situation is to shun it. Show zero appreciation, and make it clear that it isn't welcome. People seemed to have forgotten this a few decades ago, so you're welcome.
It's the RB26>b-butYou are just poor, anon.
>>29067722>ze germans as is tradition overcomplicate shit, but they're regularly doing 125k before needing major repairs and often on their 6th owner.Only 125k?

Shut upFactory Vortec 4200 cranks can be good for 1000+hp/10,200rpm, 25psi is good for 750+whp
inline 6's sound like shit, prove me wrong.
>>29067892RB's and 2J's sound good but BMW i6's sound like liquid ass and gayness.
>>29067799Wrong
>>29067638>Atlas 4200, aka picrelWhat the hell is it doing in a Fairmont?
>>29067777Checked and holy smokes.Need more photos of your ride.

>>29067892Let me guess.... you specifically like the sound of an inefficient incorrectly routed exhaust of a cross-plane V8?
>>29067936It was swapped in, duh?
>>29067956>It was swapped in, duh?That doesn't explain WHY, fuckface.
>>29067638No.In no order.>Mercedes-Benz M104Way over-built>Yamaha/Toyota 2JZGTEStrikingly similar to the M104 in many ways>Nissan RB26DETT.

Imagine hauling ass down the Wangan while listening to this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0CSad243VA
>>29067960Yes it does you retard
>>29067968this board is largely made of children who have never even heard of the tower of power
>>29067638Shit list but based nivlac enjoyer.
>>29067882Wow that explains why no tuners, racers, YouTubers, out anyone on the planet uses these engines for incredible, cheap, and reliable power.
>>29067998The Atlas 4200 has the double curse of being a truck based inline 6 (means it's long and tall) as well as GM being based retards and only using it in one platform for 6 to 8 years. That does not mean it's ignored as a potential tuning platform, it's just more time/money consuming than something like a 2J or LS
>>29067963>>BMW S54>N/A or boostedThe head will start to lift under boost. Also choosing the most finnicky of the BMW ///M I6s is insane. Even an N54/M57 is a better choice>>29067998The N54 ran so the B58 could walk and who gives a shit about what any of those retards you listed use.
>>29067989Can't beat a slant for smooth, reliable street driving. Beautiful sound as well.
What's the point of a gas i6 when gas pushrod V8's exist?
>>29068084>pushrodwe shilling inferior technology again?
>>29068097Current day is built upon inferior technology like electric cars, streaming services, smartphones, and ipad babies
>>29067947And yet billet blocks push 2500hp easily>b-butYou are poor>>29067930>AristoNice Taxi engine lmao
>>29068134>the RB26 is the best engine if you just replace the whole engine with another engine average Nissan experience
>>29068084Smooth performance, if you know you know.
>>29068154Where's the performance? Where are all the 1000hp pump gas all motor i6's?
>>29068138>Can't afford a billet blockPoorfag moment lmao

>>29067638>Rb25det >no mention of a 1jzAs a owner of both, fuck the RB, oil issues, less aftermarket support, worse head, all stock internals are worse.
>>29067894https://youtu.be/NArI6KMQpNY?is=6wIT76I5_qgi6iJu
>>29067963M104 is literally the cheapest way to make 700whp out of an inline 6 engine. 3 of my garage friends have built a m104 to 600+whp for under 5k€
Youre all way off....
>>29068357but anon, that's not a BMW k1600
225 slant 6
>>29068364"I wish I was on a K1600 instead" has never been uttered on the track.
>>29068368??? so ???
>>29068170>Can I get a loaf of bread I am starving please!Holy kekaroo
>>29068419Yeah didn't think so Meanwhile.... >where da RBs at?
>>29068439Too bad they all sound like shit
>>29068441the consolation cope
>>29068385So... my post fit the thread of "best inline 6 ever made"Your post was just "this also exists"
>>29067894>>29068277Find me a I6 that sounds super saiyan as this when you upshift:https://youtu.be/XvBH8jTv9EQ?t=12honorable mention: S55s when you swap the shitty factory turbos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTMHSV3xb_4
>>29068490the k1600 has a better inline six motorcycle engine. The best engine may not be on the motorcycle that's best to ride on a track. These are two disconnected concepts. The chevy small block is the best v8 engine, but it's been in a lot of vehicles that you wouldn't want to be in a race with.
>>29068507Thanks for proving my point. That's just a generic raspy noise.
>>29068134>muh billet blockbased Ship of Theseus enjoyer. the rb26 doesn't make top 3 in nissans own lineup lol. That's the TD48, L28ET, RB25 NEO-vvl
>>29067777checked and based
>>290685191047cc@105hp in 1979Vs1649cc@160hp in 2026>nearly 50 years later and its making slightly less HP/L Pretty weak dude.
>>29068579thats really great if literally all you care about is peak horsepower per liter
>>29068588Its directly related to performance.Will that K1600 outlast a smaller, lighter ZX1200 4 cyl thats putting out 25% more HP?What exactly is the K1600 bringing to the table?
>>29067965>>29067966goddamn son
>>29068523
>>29068442Drag racing goes on >>>/lgbt/
>>29067722LMAO so it's built by mestizo mexicans and not blacks... That really gives me confidence!
>>29069062>brings up billet engines>but doesn't like drag racing So uhhhh drift then?Another motorsport where RBs get dominated by 2Js
>>29069105The only other application where a billet block would be used is in time attack which is dominated by RBsBut that's less to do with the engine and more to do with AWD+aero
>>29067638>fastest car in the world x3>won Le Mans x5>in use for 43 years>sounds incredible>still the basis of some of the best restomods around
>>29069233>time attack>is dominated by RBs
>>29069105Billet RBs is only necessary in drag racing, you decided to point out the weakness of an RB here >>29067947 but those are irrelevant because billet engines solve all those problemsEitherway you are poor and retarded, which is why you can't afford a billet RB
>>29069405still waiting for that bread big fella
>>29069555>Poorfag has been starving for days nowKek
>>29069579>"if you don't own a billet RB you're poor!">won't put bread on his billet RBdoing a big think here....
>>29069590I never claimed to have a billet RB you fucking retardLearn to read you fucking imbecile, the RB is the best inline 6, building anything else is poorfag cope
>>29069622Yeah I know you're a poorfag, it was quite obvious anon. Anyway as we've already covered here in the thread it gets mogged by the 2J even in billet form.
>>29069998>2JPoorfag cope, no one wants to drive a taxi engine.
>>29070009Imagine buying a billet block and STILL getting mogged by a taxi engine Of course, as a poor fag, imagining is the best you'll manage there.
>>29069240is this a jaaaaag?
