Sorry, see my mistake. VZN autos have the transfer intergral, VF1A is on the manuals, and all the diesels, manual or auto.

Kelvin, I find this comment strange, as every site I have seen, including this one, states to use the auto Surf transfer case with ADD as it bolts onto the lexus auto. You also do this as a service with wiring, so what gives? ***See below for my retraction - SORRY!****** Regards, Dan

I figured you'd chime in, Kelvin. I'll send you an email, as it's easier for you to answer at your leisure.

Hi All just hoping for some clarification. Currently have an beaten up LN61V Surf running a 1UZ, Linkplus G3 and standard W55 box and trans. Wasted spark setup and no MAF. Runs ok, just needs a decent tune and OE ISCV valve rather than the bosch unit fitted. 2" Body lift. I am looking at...

Will actually make the problem worse as then the taller FPR will be in the road. It seems odd - everyone says it's not a prob to reverse the manifold. Maybe that's only for the cast fuel rails not the billet ones?

I have, but that doesn't affect the fuel rail location.

Sorry, can't figure out why I can't post the pic direct. It's the throttle body and flange on the upper plenum hitting the fuel rail inlet stopping it bolting down to the lower manifold by about 30mm

Hi all Having some issues with reversing my intake manifold so the TB is on the left. I know it's supposedly straight forward but I'm stuck as to what to do about this...

Hi Kelvin Just wonderin if you have had a chance to send the hoses yet? Cheers, Dan

I have an early ln61 so i don't think the vzn130 omes will work. I can make something fit once i have some funds free

Cheers. I have neither of those fittings. What you do appears to have been done. Any chance you have a pipe for under the mani? Would you have a non welded rear crossover you'd like to swap? This is going to be fun. Sigh......

Hi All Wondering if someone could post up the pics of where the heater hoses come off the engine on an early 1UZ. The heater is not connected on my Surf but I cannot find where the factory hoses actually should be. There are no blocked off pipes anywhere. Cheers Dan

The heater should keep them in the right temp range (kinda the point of the heater, as well as works quiker) And most tuning places that use a wideband have a heated one put up the tailpipe, so I can't see why it wouldn't work at the x member. I have this dilemma to a degree - except in my...

If only for a guage, and since the innovate one is heated why not run it at the merge?

Had a look and the G3 can run widebands and this opens up the auto tune feature. Just set target AFRs and the ecu will alter fuelling to suit. prob the way I'll go to help maximise effeciency

Funny you ask, i had a look today and it doesn't have any! It has custom manifolds to fit and no sensors. I assume some 4 wire bosch ones will be suitable, if not better than the standard single wire they have stock? I'll have to check and see what the link is capable of running and how to wire...

Well according to the previous owner it was dyno'd at 169.8rwkw (227rwhp) so from what I have seen that is about right, but going by the smell and look of the plugs it's way to rich, so a nice boost to economy(not that you buy a v8 for economy) and smoother running/throttle progression is mainly...

Spoke to a V8 specialist not far from me and said as it's already running and everything should be hooked up a retune (up to half a day) on the dyno to improve light throttles, cold enrichment, cruising and maybe a quick tidy up of WOT would be $350. I thought that was quite reasonable. They...

I don't mind mixtures being rich at WOT, but when you can smell the unburnt fuel in the exhaust at a hot idle or light throttle at 2500rpm it tells you some tweaking is needed.

Supposedly was professionally tuned in Tauranga, but by the way it runs at anything except WOT I'd say that's all they did - WOT. So is MAP based tuning for NA still good? Or is MAF more accurate?
