1UZ-FE Pros and Cons

[striker]

Life expectany is the draw back in higher reving motors...

another Pro of the 1uz, it can rev pretty high, safe for longer than most stock v8's.

on the other points, gearing is key, in the end the working force is all the same to accelerate 1 kg to 100mls an hour. I just don't see many people change the gear ratio's very often, instead they always up the power instead of select the best ratio's...

promiss i'll really stop now.

Striker mate we both must stop...Forum junkies no dought...I can't help it as this is my hobbie and I get fired up from time to time...I am still learning stuff from the heads of this forum... So I must continue on this note:

Yes gearing is so key... If the gearing isn't matched correctly you can lose alot of potential speed in your vehicle...

Torque converter stall rate for automatics is huge, differential gearing is big, even tranny gearing... It all matters...

PS: I have an excuse, I am in Mississippi now visiting my brother for a few weeks and man there is nothing to do over here...I mean nothing... The deep South bible belt...:kabong:
