I dunno, seems kinda wierd. They swapped in the same style motor just a different company. Unless it was a non turbo originally. Then i guess its cool.

Earlier model Mk4 Turbos had 300hp, and the later models had 320hp. The RB26TT has 280hp I think.

actually in japan, they both were capped at 280 hp, but since there wasnt a hp cap in the US, they were higher. The rb26 never came to the us, so without the restricting equipment, we'll never know

The RB is said to be smoother than the 2JZ. That's the reasoning I've heard behind that swap

The 2jz has a higher HP potential, but RB has a higher rev...

Heres another site, with the exact same cars but they have an english portion that is easier to understand, but kaizousha.com seperates rx-7, skyline and supra while king buyer only has supra for its own section
