    When was the last time you saw this thread Pop up? LOL I sold my SC just over 2 years ago. Misses it ever since. A couple months ago I got a call from the guy who bought it asking If I'd want it back. After a few offers, and a few times on E-bay he sold it back to me. I took a drive over to...

    Hey Guys, I had a couple difficult decisions come up, and unfortunately I'm not really into the car thing as much as I was at one time. I'm going to be letting my SC400 go. It's been a really long project. lots of fun, lots of time and money. Basically my focus has just gone to other things. I...

    Actually I think the mileage was the same as stock, but only until I put my foot into it. Which was way to often. LOL The second set of injectors are 880 cc's this gives me basically 1000cc's per cylinder, but gives me the benefit of stock Toyota tuning, and the ability to run a second fuel...

    Well the fabrication is basically done. I'm sure Chris and I will run into a little thing here and there as I'm sure you guys know the project is never really done. The front bumper, and nose are back on the car. Chris is finishing up a couple things with the fuel system. Again I’m running 16...

    Supercharging a SC430

    Stock head gaskets on the 430 are MLS which are fine! I would use stock head gaskets, and I did use stock GS400 "MLS" gaskets on my motor.

    3UZ Turbo Kit

    I'm not sure if your asking about my set up or not. I'm using an early 1uz which has a stronger rod then the later 1uz-2uz-3uz rod. but I had a head gasket fail. when i took the motor apart it had twisted 2 of the stock 1uz rods. they were on their way out. but my set up is from from a simple...

    1uz head seal vs 2uz iron block strength @ 30+PSI

    This is a great thread. I wish you lots of luck M3 Are the head lifting issues really that serious? I had a HG fail, but I was running stock timing, and I think that was the major issue. I have only head bad things about Comitec, now I have never used then, but I have only heard bad things. I...

    That is AWESOME!!!!! What did David recomend for the head gasket issue. Dave? I wonder if the side feed intake is giving him trouble at the higher boost levels. I always thought that cylinders # 4&6 would be leaner then 5&7 as the air had a straight path to them, and had a 180 degree turn to...

    Smaller turbos with bigger punches...

    17 psi made 510 at the back tires through the automatic. with upgraded Toyota CT-26 turbos my car hasn't ran with the 6-speed yet. I'm hoping that changes very soon.

    NEW REBUILD ENGINE W/ BIGGER TURBO

    When I called MSD about the problem, they knew right away that the signal sharing made it to weak to run, and that I had to use another pick-up. After the second pick-up it ran great. Chris (Chrisman) and Phil have the timming controler working. It retards per PSI of boost, 2 NO2 retards...
