I just dropped my engine in its hitting on the brake pipes and clutch at the mo but i think i'm going to rip all that out and fit a pedal box with fake floor Maccy: interested to see what your mounts were like and how close the engine is to the firewall if you wouldn't mind showing me?

Maccyd you got that lump in the car yet?

Shame this isn't in the uk would have bit your hand off for it :(

How much would it cost for something like that out of interest?

Cheers ruishy I'll take a photo of the loom at when Its in front of me :)

All I know is the engine is from a LS400 and something about a 3 plug like the supra? It seems like if its after 92 it should work as there are no different.

I need a stock 91/92 ecu and cheap as I only want to get it wired up to test the motor :)

I'm looking at it this way i can buy a new 1uz for less than £300. I might get a spare. From the people I've spoke to the bottom is pretty solid the head could do with some work. I plan to see what will happen running say 18psi of boost single or twin turbo just going to change the head gaskets...

1uzfe + big boost 20psi= cheaper than the cost of a ls motor.

Hows your wiring going?

Cheers ruishy Hopefully I can get the engine in and running in the next two weeks.

Does anyone know if any 1989-1992 ecu will work with any 1992 engine or are they different?

I'll probs go with a megasquirt or something cheap ecu wise also they do mac software for tuning :D I can't find any one that sells the head gaskets in the uk well I forgot to ask nev @ f1 moto. Bit worried it will get ruined in the post :( Rx8 injectors by any chance? :D I'm from worcester...

I worked out the costs today going to be around 5 grand for the 400hp N/A Or about £900 to go single turbo(hx40) and run a sh*t load of boost try to hit 500whp it can only go bang :D Ruishy where you get your head gasket from buddy? I'd be interested to see your kit as well ruishy.

The reason I wanted to stay n/a was weight and less to go wrong especially when drifting no intercooler to hit. Any more advice on N/a ?

mac update the build thread when you have really interested to see how you get on.

I think I'm going to try go for the 4U2QUIK ones. He seems pretty sure they work and its a full kit for a good price :)

I was planning on building a 1uz turbo or twin turbo but after seeing some peoples builds I'm now leaning on staying N/A The 1uz seems to get mixed results. The car will be run on 98 ron(uk fuels) So was after reading a bit and talking to a few uk guys I have come to this spec: Early 1uz(non...

My bay looks the same maccyd mines a 14 turbo :) The brett collins guy don't ship to the uk it says on his ebay pages :S

maccyD what are you planning to do with the anti roll bar as the front sump still hits? Are you changing the cams or any mods?
