About one year ago, Jorge Juarbe (and crew) built this wild import. Opting out of the Nissan motor and saying “heck no” to a big V8; Jorge instead selected a steady-ready 2JZ Toyota (Inline 6) mill for his Nissan 370z. After building the Toyota engine with the best internals available and bolting on a PRO-JAY Bully (billet) intake manifold, Jorge added a 106-millimeter Precision turbocharger.
This guy rolls off the trailer posting low 6-second passes (in the 235 mph) range and he’s mad. He wants a 5-second pass so bad that it hurts. What is this dude thinking? He may be number eight on the Quickest Sport Compacts list, but buddy needs to get a grip.
Well, shut my mouth! After several more 6-second passes, Jorge and crew irk out a 5.85-second pass @ 248.5 mph. That’s pretty amazing!
I can’t wait to see what these guys have left. If tonight is any indicator – Blue Thunder has a ceiling that is very high.
