    Dropping compression for supercharger install

    Thanks Zuffen, I’ll do that and check it out. It may not be too bad. It’s kind of like the old days on this forum when aftermarket parts weren’t available yet and everyone was innovating and building their own! I still have Jordy’s original supercharger setup which has hand fabricated and...

    Dropping compression for supercharger install

    Hi, I have a 1UZFE in a ski boat. It’s a stock early motor with the heavy rods and pistons fitted with a M90 eaton. The blower locked up years ago and damaged the rotors and housings and put some metal through the engine. It still actually runs fine, but is starting to get a bit sad and has a...

    Project LexRay :Lexus 1UZFE onto an Alpha 1 Sterndrive

    Welcome Craig, Here is my ideas for you questions. Use your SCM, just mount it somewhere it is not going to get wet. You can even place it inside something as simple as a plastic 'lunch box' with a wiring grommet to keep water out. That will keep you within your budget and if you can afford it...

    Why arn't we seeing 2,3 &vvti UZ @ the import wreckers

    Yep. talking about Australia. Back in the early 2000's there were literally dozens of 1uzfe available and I just thought by now that the vvti versions would be starting to pile up in the import yards. 1uzfe have sold for $1000 - $1500 for a long time but the newer variants seem to be hard to...
