Well the first is a pre-cat and the other is in the cat, this is normal we are just not used to seeing it in this configuration. Anyway BMW is coming out with the gran turismo 5 series with this engine. http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Content/AllBMWs/FutureVehicles/5SeriesGT/default.aspx...

wow, i can't believe they are doing this, i thought the twin turbo v-8 was already overkill and that it would replace the normally aspirated v-12, i was wrong!

If you listen to the video it sounds like a manual shifting, an auto's shifts would be quicker, crazy if it is really a manual.

its weird seeing a car go that fast do the 1/4 and shifting a manual gearbox, what other cars go that fast on a manual, not many!

It is a heavy, long car. You can't change that. Mine handles well and is controlled and i don't know how they feel with stiffer springs and larger rims, but you can't change the first two facts i stated. Your best off to test drive one yourself.

huge accomplishment! did you ever time the car before, it would be interesting to see what it runs the 1/4 in now.

Wow, that is scary. Its a detailed description as well.

As others have mentioned the torque is not going to be enough for a truck it isn't enough for a 3600lb sc400. More work i know, but have you thought about a powerstroke? Run that thing on waste veggie oil and your fuel is free, minus the cost of setting up a filtering system. I can't believe...

I would like to thank the member who offered his facility. I'll keep you anonymous for your privacy. It was nice to meet you and see your awesome project. Strangely the squealing went away with the warm weather so i'll probably post-pone this. I'll be in touch.

WoW! You may want to reconsider your price, these packages go on clublexus for a lot less!

My lower control arm is squealing like bloody murder and i need to replace it asap. I don't have many tools here in cali. Is there someone in the l.a. metro that would be willing to let me use your facility (i.e. garage or driveway) with an air impact wrench to swap my lca. I've already done...

i applied some grease first to the upper ball joint then the lower and it finally quieted down abit after i put grease on the lower ball joint. I am also going to apply grease to the outer tie rod ball joint and see if there is any difference, but i definitely need a new lca!

My sc400 has developed a progressively loud squeal when i turn the wheel (it seems to be coming from the driver's side). I took it to one shop who thought it might be the outer tie rod. Another recommended lexus shop said it may be the upper control arm but they are not sure. I purchased a...

So i got pulled over saturday night in hermosa beach by a DUI taskforce outside of a club. I passed the field test, but they asked me to take a bac test and i refused as that is what i have always been advised to do. I spent the night in jail and now have a court date in march. I am new to...

Jibby, How is your friend's experience with Curadebt? Bank of america has tripled my rate for no reason (on my part) and has received two massive bailouts!

Jibby, have you ever ridden a banshee? My friend had one with a built motor and the power was too much to control in any gear, it seemed like it would rev faster with each upshift, nuts.

That's great to hear it can be imported. I may just keep the texas tags for awhile and get it sorted once i'm there for awhile. I really think i'm going to need cats, but i guess i'll find out (maybe some magnaflow cats welded in in tijijuana, haha?). What is the mechanic shop? If getting a...

I know the 2jz does, just curious. I'm guessing not given the differences in specific output, but i can't believe i haven't researched this question before. I also brought this up because someone said the sc400 had a yamaha designed airbox, which i am not sure it that is true.

dramastically I kinda like that word, mind if i use it?

I will take a look at the Cali DMV, i hope you can register an out of state car there, that sounds a little extreme to me if you can't. How wonder how long i can leave it registered in texas, my parent's have a permanent address there, but the title is in my name? My mother's 98 camry is a...
