Also, its almost a felony here to speed more than 3kmh (approx 2mph?) over the speed limit in some states. Some of the state governments make a lot of their revenue so they have cameras everywhere.

Yep, that TopSecret V35 pulled some pretty good figures with that manifold, i always wondered if a simpler tube-style manifold would have good results considering how much simpler it would be to build compared to a more complicated box plenum/ curved runner design. Will be interesting to see...

You can get 1UZs from Ichiban motors for around $850. Most frontcuts (which includes VERYTHING) go for around 1800

Pretty good. Theres some bargains on ebay, you just gotta be careful i picked up a To4b with the similar specs as yours to use in my turbo falcon project. Are you using a 1UZ to spool the turbo if so then hte large turbine will not be a problem

Thats great to hear. That would have to be the most extreme UZ i have heard of in Australia (apart from that twin-turbo one used in the Camira drag car- sense of humour???). The only other extreme UZ in the world that i know of is the HKS Supra. Not bad for the good ol aussies hehe. Any...

Sorry dont know anyone in US that makes xUZ cams other than Kelford. I do know of a guy from Aus or NewZealand called Ivan Tighe. He made the cams for the powerhouse performance 600hp blown Soarer.

i guess it depends how you look at it. Technically, NO it isnt a LExus block because Lexus didnt built it. THen again, its based off a the lexus design with more meat in the right places and various other strengthening measures. The same could be said with heavily modified blocks that are...

Ahh my bad. Maybe i should start buying magazines instead of flipping through all of them in Borders...

Yes thats right the first big power 1UZ seen (as far as i know). Saw it in ZOOM magazine (for us Australia boys), but the racer was in U.S. It was using a massive PSI blower running 30+psi. They said they cracked two blocks before giving up and milling a custom one based on the Lexus design...

The supraforums.com website has been locked due to security probs, the owner told me it hsould be up and running again soon. Thanks to cribbj for your help.

No way, a worked auto will always trump a manual in straight line speed. Key word there is WORKED. ANy stock auto will always be lagging behind a good manual driver due to slow shifts and less than ideal ratios (Falcon 1st gear anyone?) Also i have not heard of anyone making high stalls to...

Yea i tried supraforums.com but it denies access and says you need to be registered to view the forums. It also says registration is restricted. vBulletin Message Sorry, registration has been disabled by the administrator. Thanks for the help, i thought the US forums would have most...

So im looking at manual options for a 1UZ. Checked out a few Tremec options. But cant find ANY twinturbo 6speed boxes off supras! Spoke to Toyota just for fun about ordering one in. THey want $12500 including GST.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bought my whole Supra for less!!! Even ebay US has...

There was a LPG injection system to suit a V8 that came with a Haltec ECU that was on sale on ebay for $1500 not long back. Came with 8 injectors and came off a GenIII, made 550hp with more to go. I was extremely tempted to buy it but thoguht id better get the car first. Ill see if i can...

You guys can thank me later :) I am so gonna run a bugcatcher on my V8 supra. Cant say its the meanest sounding V8 but i find that it rarely comes out right when converted to mpeg and ciewed on comp instead of standing next to it.

Heres one for the VIC boys $1400 for a vapour system for a V8 PLUS a Haltech ECU! Over here its near impossible to get a late model blown car engineered due to emissions. To get a test is $2000.00+ depending who you go. THats for a test, pass or fail. I think LPG is a serious...

Very nice. Heard good things about them (on 5L Commo V8s). Any power figures? Hows the drivability? Struggling for traction at teh lights hehe...?

What about the JZX100, Soarer and R34 sedan drift cars? Obviously they have some major weight reduction and other changes but essentially it is the same body. While ill agree they arent as maneuvarable and never will be as a similarly prepped light-car such as a hachi or a silvia I think...
