She's a little tired now, pulled off the road for 1UZ and W series, power steering, bucket seats.

I got a hold of a surf/4runner handbrake & cable, as the stock one fouls on the rear of the head, but it mount different.
Anyone done this swap?
Did you have to drill a hole for the mount, and a hole for the cable.
If so, where did you drill the cable hole?

Anyone?
Also, where is the engine number on 1UZ?

I drilled mine in the bottom of the fire wall behind clutch pedal and put a grommet in it

OK, So i'm about to install remote oil filter, I have a CRS adapter and a GREX remote filter block with PWR oil cooler set up off my 4AGZE set up. Can I use this oil filter, or is there a certain flow rate or anything I missing here?

 

[ALI1UZLUX]

Any one help out with some info here?

 

[samsdad]

I'm pretty sure that both use the same oil filter

Really? It has a Subaru filter on there at the moment When I did my mates RN90 1UZ few years back we just used a 25mm high industrial grader filter that had same thread size/pitch. It was meant to be a short term thing, 3yrs later, still running these pissy little things, has not had an issue. Based on that I would have to think that a 4A filter could only be a good thing, but just want to hear a few opinions before I go ahead. I'm looking at this right now http://www.ebay.com/itm/GReddy-Oil-...Parts_Accessories&hash=item51a36f436b&vxp=mtr it doesn't say anywhere I can see but I believe its a thermostat type, but its says 4AGE filters....

Hang on, It does say thermostat....I checked out what motors the Greddy filters list do, there are so many, fairly universal...Doesn't actually say 1UZ anywhere, but 1J and 2J are listed in the equivalent HKS size filter. I think I will be alright.
