You remember that story of mine, ha ha...I still miss that clean Landcruiser to this day. Frigg'n blown head gasket.. :dunno: That was a great truck while it lasted, but it did suck up the gas big time.. Those cruisers with the inline 4.5L motors simply are not friendly at the gas pumps...

Dave, you should start making a TV show called Lextreme Overhaul'n. Something like we take any abused Lexus's, fire victims, roll over victims, and wreck victims and bring them back to life for pennies on the dollar. I think I need to start doing what you do Lex.. Look in local wreck yards...

No I still can't imagine 650whp.. The most I've ever felt was around 400whp and that was not in my car either.:17: One day god willing...

Uncle David is a hell of a guy with mechanical skills.. Little neice must be very happy..:fing02:

Drifty, do you think your car is faster then the new M3 BMW's right now? I'm trying to imagine what a N/A 1uz-fe motor in small BMW would be like. You're probably laying down around 200whp or so... Hmmmm? I use to beat out the M3 beamers with my SC400.. I raced 2 of them and pulled on both...

That makes perfect sense to me.. TH400 has larger and stronger moving parts then the 340e, so inturn it would take more power to run it..... Thank you..

I would love to know the performance differences between the two trannies? For example - Same car delivering 400whp also equiped with close to the same diff gearing ratio's and torque converter stall rates.. A340E quarter mile time - Th400 quarter mile time - I wonder if there would...

Whom ever said the Supra's were just dyno queens?.. SW Boost Logic is pumping out some very fast Supra's.. This is one of them.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=US2Y8c327YA&NR=1

Nice tutorial JB... I am firm believer that history has a way of repeating itself.. Our leaders and all US citizens should view this and take heed to it's warnings..:yup:

Turbo Hayabusa, now that's just not fair....

This is what it would be like to be driving a 1000hp Hennesey turbo'd Viper from in the cockpit.. Looks like it snaps hard and pulls thru all gears..WOW!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsdvmcfLmBY For a nice 6 minute inside look at how a 1500hp Dodge is driven have a look at this...

I got a 1992 SC400, I ran a 10 flat and don't have time slips either, oh and I didn't even need to hit the nitrous to do that....:alcoholic: Not likely Stevie boy.. Not likely..

I knew it would happen sooner or later.. Glad to see a lexus with some real N/A power.. Should have been an LS3 instead of an LS1 though.. I like it.... Nice find...

I found this video very funny.. Thought some of you might feel the same.. I'm suprised the GEO could handle a 100 shot even for a few seconds..WOW!!! Enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hhe1hiW0VaM

Well, Ford is coming out with a 400hp 5.0L 32v V8 motor to go into their new 2010 Mustangs. Gees, I wonder where they came up with this idea? Any thoughts on this one? http://mustangs.about.com/b/2009/05/19/work-continues-on-fords-400-hp-coyote-50l-engine.htm

I also have an older AMD Desktop HP computer. It Runs on either 1.8 or 2.2 GHZ and not too much memory either, I honestly forgot. It got painfully slow running windows, firefox and many other current programs. This is a back up computer for internet use only. Instead of selling the computer...

Nice pics Steve. I honestly don't understand how you can drive those Lexus's. They ride sooooo low to the ground.. My SC is lowered, but not as low as those. I've completely shreaded the front rubber spoiler and removed it. I scrape and rub over most driveways. I got to ride up most driveways...

Why do you think I jumped to the LSX forums for the past couple of years? No offense to Lextreme.com, but I was just in awe when I would race some of the built LS1, LS3 and LS7 powered cars. Oh, and when I first saw a few turbo'd LSx's they were down right scary fast.. Supra's can't compare in...

I just think these 1uz-fe swaps into these light weight troopers, 4 runners, Montero's, etc... are all just amazing. I know what an 1uz-fe can do in a heavy sc400, and I can only imagine how spunky it would be in those little 4x4's.. Too cool and bad ass for sure. Go man!!! Great swap.. I...

There is no point to this thread really, other then the fact that these early model 1uz-fe's are basically bullet proof. Jakey, I get the feeling your still busting my balls after all this time. Hmmm?
