    Wanted WTB: 1UZ-FE knock sensor

    Hi all, I'm looking for a good, working 1UZ-FE knock sensor for my '96 LS. As far as I know, any '90-97 1UZ-FE knock sensor will do the trick just fine. Let me know what you have - thanks! (My budget is less than $25 - have mercy on a poor fella!) :D

    Wanted '95-97 LS400 speedometer gauge

    Need a speedometer for my LS400. Mine has a burned out needle end, and has started acting lazy with the movement. I don't want the whole cluster, just the speedometer. Thanks.

    Wanted Serpentine belt tensioner

    Has anybody got a serpentine belt tensioner for the 90-97 1UZ-FE that they'd be willing to let go of cheap? I don't need the pulley, just the tensioner itself. I'm hoping to pay somewhere around $25 shipped. If this will work for you, drop me a line sometime very soon - otherwise I'll just order...

    Electric cutout on stock exhaust?

    How effective would it be to install an exhaust cutout on the stock exhaust? This eBay kit has a remote control so that you could install the cutout without running wires into the cabin. It looks pretty simple and effective...

    Free Free: South Africa world calling card

    I know we have some members from South Africa, they might find it useful. It should have a balance of at least some Rand left. The number to call is 10136 and the card number is 4000 0126 5921 6620. I used it on my last trip to SA and don't need it anymore.

    Best place in SoCal to live?

    I'm thinking about moving back out to California after I graduate in May. I've lived in San Diego before for two years and loved it, but will need to go where the jobs are. Anybody have any recommendations on good places in southern Cal to live? If L.A., which city in LA?

    Australians and engineers for modified cars

    Hey guys, What is the process for getting an engineer involved in car modifications in Australia? Does the engineer help you do the modifications, or does he just sign off on them? Is the cost of having an engineer approve a swap usually about the same as the cost of doing the swap itself? Just...

    Project Thread Vortech on a tired 1UZ-FE

    Well, I lost an auction by $.50 to get a 3.33" 6-rib pulley for $20.50, so that is out. It might be for the best, though - Arnout's story of a UCF20 spitting out its rods at 7PSI scared the shit out of me. These rods are a disgrace to the Toyota name. The 7M rods can handle 700hp, with two fewer...

    Motor Mount Alternative? Can I use MkIV Supra motor mounts instead of 1UZ OEM?

    As the title states, I would like to know if I could use 1998 Supra Twin Turbo motor mounts to replace the stock, worn-out 1996 LS400 1UZ-FE motor mounts as a bolt-in affair. I think I read that they will interchange at some point but I was hoping for some corroboration from someone who would...

    1UZ fitment in Toyota trucks

    Good day, I see that the 1uz is a popular swap for Toyota trucks. It appears to be extremely doable, so I want to know if anyone has come up with a CAD drawing of the motor mount, and also if there's any kind of how-to with general guidelines for a particular type of 1UZ to use, body harness...

    Someone with a repair manual: I need ohm values for EGR, IAT, and coolant temp!

    I'm doing a little bit of mod work to my car to make it more fuel efficient. My '96 LS400 SUCKS DOWN the gas when its cold and I hate that. :rippedhand: So I want to fool the car into thinking that the intake air temp is 150 deg. F, coolant temp is 200 deg. F, and also to fool the car into...
