It is a fully built 2.7-litre bored and stroked RB26 running custom cams, MoTeC M800 ECU and twin modified Veilside/SPL GT-3540 turbos with dual external 'gates. I could get you more but their site is down.

Try again.
that's why i said stage 1, do your homework before posting again, thank you.

For the record that can be interpreted a number of different ways.

Next you said, strongest in stock form. Well that's wrong becaue the rb26 from r34 gtrs puts down more completely stock and the vg30.

So in order to avoid any further confusion, what exactly are you now trying to say the engine does?
The same thing I meant before. That is the strongest engine, meaning it can withstand a greater power load than any of the other Nissan motors.

And I believe the stock HP rating on the R34 was ~276HP, still less than the Z32. But that's not the exact point I was making.

600HP? Link please. If you're right I'll admit you just stole my ass.

Uhm, I already said a while back that yuo need to throw the 276 hp rating out the window, why are you trying to use that as an arguement? The rb26 puts down more power than the vg30 stock.

next up, strongest motor, there are plenty of 1200+hp rb26s. Show me that it's as common amongst vg30s.

According to Heat or some professional authority? Show me, and I'll believe it, no problem.

Once again, you didn't show me anything but your own testament. Here's something to start with. If you still feel like arguing for the sake of arguing tomorrow, I'll gave you more. http://www.escort-us.com www.z32racing.com

The article about the strength of VG30DETT is probably true, Bulletproof motors=Nissan
But the description of that VG30 was not available for the Zs in the US. If they were thats something new.
I have seen the N/A version in the mid\upper-90s Maximas. (They have timing chains, the Zs had T. Belts).

Server had problems when I tried to view it yesterday. But I just got to look at it. It doesn't say that it is a stock block; it just lists the other parts including custom manifolds, turbos, engine management, etc. It DOES mention use of custom camshaft (specs undisclosed), so it's not a totally stock motor. It could very possibly have a stock bottom end. I found more evidence that the stock RB26DETT can support up to 600HP. Very impressive; so now I can't fairly guesstimate which one is stronger.

At least somebody else posted some evidence to their claims. Thanks for the info; good stuff.

I'm done here. Peace.
