Tue, 10 June 2003 00:48 Celicamad, the thing I don't get, is its fine to say "yeah, use the rear-most mounts". Thats fine, and I'm sure you've done it in your TA23 and been able to move the engine so far back that the correct balance has been achieved. In an RA6X, its not an easy thing. As I pointed out, as it is, the 1GGTE in Narks car is already sitting as far back as its going to, and theres a bees dick room between the radiator and the engine. A 1JZGTE may not be hugely longer, but even you have admitted that indeed it IS longer. That means moving the radiator etc and putting some of the weight even further forward. This is a picture of a 2JZGTE, which is obviously the same length. This is how much room they have in an RA6X using the rearward mounts, and yes, this is the one where they punched a hole through the firewall to move it back: I'm not trying to argue with you, you obviously know your shit, but not all shit is going to work for all cars. The engine bay in the RA6X mustn't be as long as that in your TA23, because there isn't any room to use your rearward mounts. Therefore, yes, theres going to be some compromise in weight distribution and hence handling. Sure you can set the car up around it, but it'd never handle as well as something that was set up around say, RENESIS rotary (the reason I used this example is the damn thing isn't a lot bigger than a toaster).
