I have an NA early crown running factory auto, and has the small light blue injectors fitted, it doesn't have much in the way of mods at this stage apart from larger exhaust. The motor has been sitting for some time so the injectors will need doing so was wondering which way to go as there is...

Thanks for that, really enjoyed your vids, trying to get this hot rod up and running before we head home to NZ next year.

So 3uzfe cops with the mount chopped off is still the way to go.

Just wondering what the latest is on converting early 1uzfe to coil over plug. I have seen a couple of conversion kits on ebay that are for converting them but hard to get any real information on the actual product. The ones I have seen are four wire with pig tails and don't need igniters, for...

Thanks guys I managed to source a cover picture and unwrapped most of the loom to find the joiners that had been put it at least I can figure out what is suppose to be what now. Just need to source a small fuse box and relay mounts to suit.

I will make up my own fuse box as you say will be so much easier and need something thats going to fit in the space. I am just trying to figure out what has been reassigned and what I actually need as its not an untouched wiring system, and to get it out of the car is going to be a massive job...

Hi Guys anyone out there who can send me a pic of a Uzs131 crown engine bay fuse box cover, as it has the fuse and relay diagram on top. I had venom do the loom for it quiet a few years ago but I need to down size the fuse box to fit under the dash, but I need to know what is in there that I can...

Lokar have emailed me back saying the detents on the shifter don't line up, yet I have seen these shifters used in a couple of street rods with a 1uzfe and 3 speed B&M shifters work on these boxes. How can you check and compare the detent gate.

I think they were using oil designed for diesel engine as it has a high detergent levels in it for keeping sludge levels low as against putting diesel fuel in the motor. I checked around the local car parts places and they only have STP or Nulon sludge remover which you put in before you change...

Thanks for that, I don't think we have sea foam here, but will look to see if we have something similar as I know there is a problem with late model GM v6's.

anyone fitted a cable Lokar shifter to a A340E? I noticed that MV automatics in south oz have cable brackets for a B&M shifter could they be used for the Lokar shifter.

I was just wondering about a build up of sludge that is in the oil filler and PVC valve areas, I guess they are in a baffle as I can't see the cams, is this a common problem? The oil is as clean as and the services where all done according to the service book that was in the glove box of the...

Sorry not to get back sooner the crown motor has log manifolds that have small flanges that mount a small pipe smaller than 2" by eye that is covered in casing to restrict heat. one side crosses over under flywheel and sump where it joins the other bank pipe than into a flattened wide pipe for...

I want to build a new Y pipe for my crown motor, but unclear as how an original lexus Y pipe is constructed to give it good flow. I am going to use the original crown headers despite their bad design at this stage, having to move oil filters etc to clear rush headers maybe over kill for the...

I am looking at headers for a crown 1UZFE in a hotrod, I have looked at Rush import headers but they interfere with the crown oil filter, I don't want to use a front mount filter as it interferes withe the front cross member. Has any one used the genie or pacemaker headers for the land cruiser...

True, not that it is going to get to go up Mt Anisley at the rate it is going together. So big trans tunnel and angle is not a problem but trans fluid will be a pain to empty as the plug is in the high end of the trans pan. Thanks I was just a bit worried about it.

I know the crown motor is slightly rotated left to right to clear the steering box but I was thinking front to back. the Motor is sitting level which puts the box up high it the cabin, no floor in car at present. I understand the uni bit. I was more worried about the auto box with the oil pan at...

I have a crown UZfe and was looking at the sump on the auto trans and is angled up. Should this be square to the ground for the fluid pickup also the drain plug is at the back and you would not be able to drain it unless you drop the back of the box down.

Hi is there a kick down switch in the toyota crown can't find it in the wiring Diagrams tho there is one fitted to Lexus LS400's ,that is fitted under the accelerator pedal. Also where is the netural safety switch and gear selector switch located. On the box?

Thanks guys, I wanted a simple column without all the headlight/wiper switches etc. but need the tilt function as there is not much room in the rod. I have the crown column from the half cut but too big and bulky. I also have an EA falcon one but neither have column shift plus they have the...
