This isn't to say that the N54 is the absolute successor nor am I saying that the N54 is superior to the 2JZ. In fact, I don't think the N54 will live up to the legend that the 2JZ is romanticized for. I'll repeat, what other motor out there will you name as the most worthy successor?

I guess my point is that it isn't THAT ridiculous to argue a case for the N54.

(I own an N55 so no bias here.)

I think the most similar to the 2j, today, would be the s55. Will also go down as an all time great i6, things make stupid power.

Why is the power dumb?
