Toyota: 4.0L DOHC 24V V6, 258 HP, 270 pd-ft torque 3.72 axle ratio 5 speed auto 5570 GVW

I don't think the manual and the lower weight of even the 2 door is going to overcome the more powerful engine in the FJ.
That's the new 2010 4.0l V6 specs, but either way the FJ wins in power/weight ratio.

As others have already stated, stock vs. stock the FJ will hand the JK its ass in a race.

I took the specs for both as 2010 models.

JK wins the most likely to be mistaken for a brick contest....especially if it is a red rock one...

Not that it really matters, but maybe he did mean to say TJ. The F and the T buttons are fairly close on the keyboard.

They will be even, dead even, if you drive them off of a cliff at the same time.
