I have read that before but still do not see the reasons for using the gm bell. Have you fit the th400 with the stock bell in a lexus. My understanding is that it will not fit without a lot of hacking due to it's size. I have not seen a th400 with the stock bell put in any toyota or lexus. I...

Just curious if there is any reason you guys are adapting the GM bell to the 1uz? I am going to use an adapter for the lexus auto tranny bell to the gm th400. I have one in my hands and then all I need is a hybrid TC and I am done. The drawback is that the gm bell needs to be machined off but...

What peewee said is 100% spot on. It is just another engine as soon as you rip it from the body of whatever car you choose. You will lose the rat's nest of wiring. There are very few things needed for EFI; injectors, throttle body, CLT, AIT, MAP or MAF (pick your poison here), some type of...

Those look very nice. Now I am supercharger stupid so bear with me for a second. How exactly do you route these bypass valves. Using the word bypass I can only imagine that it connects to the inlet of the SC and then goes around the SC to somewhere on the piping to the intake manifold. I...

I have an adapter plate that I am going to get knocked off for a th400. Let me know if you need any dimensions or pics.

That is cool as hell Thomas. I have never seen one of those. I wish I would have had one about 6 months back after my buddy had a fight with putting fittings in for his oil cooler relo. Thanks for putting that up.

Well that stinks. It shows that the M112 will fit on the manifold. I keep hearing that richwood can make a plate for the m112 but I havent had a chance to send them an email to ask.

Dont worry about the cold start. I have pulled them off a lot of cars and had very little problem. I have done the same with the ISC. An aftermarket TB also makes life easier by adjusting the throttle plate.

Here is a place in australia that has mounted up an M112. http://www.mrsupercharger.com/Lexus,%201UZFE%20systems.html I was just looking at M112's on ebay and you can get one for a fairly reasonable price.

What he is trying to say smartass is that $200 is going to buy you zero performance adding mods for the 1uz. The sc400 will not go fast for cheap. So my vote is window tint too.

Did you mount the 700r4 to the engine yourself. Just curious what parts you used and how you did it? I am looking to do a th400 so I am interested in how you did it.

pin 1 brown - ground pin 2 red - idle switch pin 3 yellow - voltage out pin 4 blue-red - power Hope that helps

good stuff...nice to see someone working on MS. It is one of the most affordable options for EM. I assume you are going to a manual tranny?

Any reason you wouldnt use the toyota VR sensor? A VR sensor is a VR sensor from what I understand. Just curious.

I had to chime in on imperial v. metric. This is why I love to work on japanese manufactured cars. One set of tools. I have torn down my share of trans ams and dear god I dont understand how those guys do it. There is a horrendous mix of imperial and metric nuts and bolts. As an engineer I...

JDMFantasy is not Eric. He is a guy that does fab for Eric. At least that is what I have gathered off SF.com SC400TT: Believe me I know the whole story. Just trying to keep these guys from beating a dead horse. I am getting tired of seeing products being hyped before they have even been...

The transmission is electronically controlled. Simply rewire it. It would be very simple to flip some wires around.

That design seems to be completely abandoned and now there is a log style manifold with a $2500 price tag. So much for an afordable solution.

I thought that was due to the anemic rods of the 2uz
