2.0 V6 sounds better. If I can find one cheap enough. I'd like to do that to the KJA.

There's two guys in the US with practically identical zuks, one has the j20 the other the H25, apparently the j20 leaves the 2.5 V6 behind
![rockin :rockin:](./images/smilies/jamminz.gif)
but V6s do sound good.
The J20a (128 lbsft) actually has slightly more torque than the h20a 2.0 v6 at 127lbs/ft
![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
and only 8bhp less. plus it weighs less

the V6 must be a bit more difficult to fit as well...
have fun with the timing chains on a 2.5 v6 i hear they are fun to change!
ive read that the on the older H25 engine you need to remove a camshaft to change the chain?

Also picked up my new seats that Andy had been holding for me for a while, can't wait to get these fitted.

Treated the Sj to a new Stereo! Never realised they now do stereos with no CD player, perfect for an off-roader!!
