    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    True, but I never took out the pill out. Anything much over the 150 shot will really cause havoc in many areas, timing for starters. I don't even think the early model 1uzfe's can handle solid 200 shot with just a rich fuel mix and high volume fuel pump. I think a solid 200 shot in my car...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    No the LS3 motor won't hold up like an early model 1uz-fe motor, not a chance..Then again, I don't know many motors that can. Maybe the old Q45 Infinity V8 motor could stand the best chance. However, I'm convinced the 6.2L LS3 motor is a very nice and stout motor that can take some good abuse...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    I see them crated complete for around $7000-$8000 USD.. Hang out on the GM forums long enough like I have been doing and continue to search the wreck yards and you can pull it off for around $3000-$3500...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    Spf lexus - Boost is great and stuff, but nothing like big N/A "reliable" horse power on command combined with a great matching manual transmission. I've personally always been into the simple meat and potato applications. The only boosted car I have ever owned in my life and drove was the...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    Cob and Snipe, you guys could be onto something with those posts... Set my SC400 in 1st gear lock on the tranny shift, hit the nitrous at a 150 shot, keep it floored and on a down hill slope and see what happens with the first gear winding out. That should do the trick for sure I would...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    Lex, you may be onto something there. Now that's a stout N/A motor. I've always been in awe of those big V10's. You think you could squeeze that monster under the hood of an SC400? Have you looked into the fit? Good luck with that one buddy.. The LS3 is a challenge in itself, let alone a Viper...

    Why won't my 1uz-fe blow up?

    It's been a while since I posted on this forum. Read and seen it all pretty much regarding the 1uzfe's... During the past two years I've really been neglected my SC400. I ran Nitrous and raced it for many years, floored it every chance I got. It has 170,000 miles on it now and runs just as...

    Symptoms of Bad Torque Converter?

    ZR1, Porcshe, GTR, Ferrari motortrend race..

    I would never buy a GTR based on the launch control and transmission failures being reported... Those problems are not being covered under warranty by the Nissan dealer either.. Just the fact that the transmission is not covered under full warranty the day you drive the car off the lot is a sign...

    Obama

    Clint, You and I really don't know the exact politic's behind this war. We know what the media feeds us and we draw our own conclusions from that... Did Bush push the war for unknown reasons? Oil, popularity, retaliation, personal agenda, etc.. We can't be certain and that is why there are...

As far as me being a Patriot, sure why not.. We...
