    2007 Supra, Possible 350HP V8

    hmmm... anyways, that picture is suppose to be a project dubbed "son of supra"... it isn't the actual supra in production..... apparently, snaps of a black supra-ish shaped prototype were taken last year going around the Nur. in europe... basic shape was like the current supra, but squared...

    2007 Supra, Possible 350HP V8

    hmmm.. now we all know mr toyota loves to have their engines running at low stress levels which equals low hp figures..... BUT.... i'm sure the 1gz-fe can make 500hp without too much work.... but you'd be damned to find a fully equipped v12 for less than any insane amount of money....

    Can one of you Aussie guys call Dellow??

    still working on that... there have been delays on my behalf, though i will certainly resume the work required when i come back from my trip up north (work).

    injected LPG

    wouldn't keeping it in liquid state be as simple as keeping pressure high enough (which isnt that high anyhow) to keep it flowing? GRA has been playing around with possible liqiud injection systems for awhile i think... i'll call them today also... they seem to be the best place to start for...

    FI air flow meter position

    that's an interesting thought.... but thinking about it, the 1uz's afm is of the karman vortex variety... which means air turbulence is an important factor... and thinking further, wouldnt having the BOV between the afm and turbo create too much distortion to turbulence when the throttle closes...

    injected LPG

    well, there are a few options when it comes to injected LPG... there's the vapour injection and liquid injection... urtwhistle, the link you provided is interesting as it is the same company i was going to call up monday... seeing as they're only down the road from me... joyful!!! I...

    injected LPG

    hehe, i dunno about buying the system just to find out... maybe just actually go look at some parts, or better yet, ask some manufacturers/suppliers..... i will do just that on monday... i'll give Gas Research a call and find out about their efi LPG setups.... and from there i'll see what i...

    injected LPG

    are there parts available to do this mod yet?? even ford and holden have them on the falcon and commodore ranges already, so what are your (anyone who might be interested) thoughts on it? i like the idea of running LPG in the future due to the smoother operation you'd get from a slower...

    Custom Forged Pistons & Rods

    1gz's only ever came in century's... and even they're rare as a whole car.... one was sold not long ago for the equivalent of 12k aud... my mate is an importer, so he was tracking it till it sold... dimensions for the uz engines are roughly 70 cm cubed (70x70x70). It's been fitted to an...

    473hp/376tq 3UZ-FE

    the altezza engine is actually a 3sge beams 3 (vvtl-i, which is the same as vtec, not really vvti).... seems to be the thing with most "beams" engines from mr toyota

    Project Thread SC470TT (VVTi) Twin Turbo Lexus SC400 with 4.7L Toyota Tundra Engine

    John, the name's Tan, hehaha... Andrew, when i suggested different sized turbo's i was thinking about it in a compound system... wasn't too clear, sorry. Now don't you wonder why none of the big supra or rotary shops do this? it's damn hard is why... Especially if you're using 2 externally...

    Project Thread SC470TT (VVTi) Twin Turbo Lexus SC400 with 4.7L Toyota Tundra Engine

    cribbj, apparently, all 2jzgte's came with twin sequential turbo setups.... this includes the USDM, JDM, and EDM supra's, and the Aristo v300 (GS300)... i know that the 1jzgte ran twin ct12a turbo's in parallel (2jz ran ct12b's for anyone curious)... maybe that's what you've heard. Skid...

    Electronic Boost Controller

    end of the day, i always liked to have boost control at the flick of a switch (or press of a button)...... never liked mbc's due to boost creep and spikes.... after my first few attempts, i gave up and just went with an AVCR... pricey, but did the job quite nicely with a few options to play...

    Project Thread SC470TT (VVTi) Twin Turbo Lexus SC400 with 4.7L Toyota Tundra Engine

    Actually, JDM TT supra's are the same as the US ones except that there is no evident flat spot... then again, you guys get slightly larger injectors (550), and steel wheeled turbo's, while we get smaller injectors (440) and slightly smaller (exhaust wheel) ceramic wheeled turbo's.... the...

    battery cable confusion

    where does it go to? what gauge is it? Could be for an old sound system or something... when you say "crossed" what do you mean by that?
