Guys, You still all dodged the bullet. How much power does the LS1 make standard and whats it's capacity ? now look at the age difference. If you want to go comparing fairly maybe you should look at the 3UZ ! even then it's still more than a litre less in capacity but a fare more comparitive...

Guys, Seriously how could you even try compare the 1UZ engine with the LS1. Firstly your comparing engine's that are 20 years apart in design. Secondly the 1UZ is a much smaller motor. Thirdly the reliability of the 1UZ has well and truley proven it's self in all sort's of applications. The...

Vito, Is this price listed ( $350 ) USD ? Because if this is so they probably work out $600 each once shipped over. Q: Do they warrent them outside of the States ? Regards Stephen

Rod, Out of curiosity, which site did you look up ? You know the one that gave you a " free briefcase " ! Because if you had payed any attension, the site you looked up was " Patriot Alarms " But the free briefcase was for there Central Station alarm. This is not a car alarm, rather a...

Rod, For your information the last reply was from the mate who i refered to earlier that was given an override code and he has a 2001 STI with the Brant sytem and obviously him along with his mates who also have Wrx's don't think so highly ! Sorry Rod I didn't get what type of car you drove or...

My mates car was not stolen. His battery went flat and he was able to restart his BRANT equiped WRX after recharging the main battery after the BRANT system went into limp mode. The override code i am talking about is another 4digit code which BRANT and Subaru do not give to owners. This...

Pewee, Well you might be right ? I can't find a great deal of info on these superchargers, well no spec's just a lot of talk. Talk is often peolpes opinion rather than facts or worthy knowledge. Firstly people wont look at these items for this application due to there size. Castlemain Rod...

Rod, As i said earlier. You should check this system out before you categorise the system. As to the Brant system, WRX's are still being stolen and i am sure some of the problem is due to the company giving out an override code to owners as someone did to my mate when his sytem was playing...

Peewee, I have a 94 model and have told 194Kw. I worked out the 40% on that ? I realise the m90 would be a greater unit but i think the two sc14's would do the job. A hell of a lot better for the price. Regards Stephen

Peewee, Well i must admit i did question this before and got a reply that the standard Ecu will handle a power increase upto 40% which should put the total output figure around the 270Kw mark ? It does sound a little out their but so is everything about this car ! If this is true thats great...

While i have you guys, Being a tight ass and the miss's against anymore money being wasted on cars. I wanted to get the power up about the 250Kw mark as cheap as possible ( with out her Feeling the missing dollars ). I was looking at going forced inducted but with two sc14 superchargers ...

Peewee, My mistake. Personally i find the power steering far to soft and i would rather feel the road so i simply disconnected the computer module for the Steering. Its fitted under/ behind the glovebox. Feels alot heavier but alot more responsive, still didn't notice any power gain assuming...

Guys, guys, guys. As it has previously been pointed out. people will beleive anything they hear and follow a trend. I am no mechanic and could not build a high performance motor buy myself with out some assistance but i can tell you this: You can not touch the water pump or when at idle for...

Rod, If this is the system currently fitted standard to these cars with the key pad, no thanks ! While i would agree that is a lot to pay for an alarm system, i brought this alarm 3 years ago when it first came out and mine was the first soarer they fitted to. I would expect it to be a little...

As always we ask questions and listen to talk from others as if it is gospal. I have heard from a lot of people that the SC400 is a very hard car to steal and that you should have any probles with theft for this reason. Personaly the cost of full insurance was very high being younge made it a...

Guys, A few years a go i fitted an alarm to my soarer. Because i was so young and couldn't afford the unbelievable price wanted to fully insure it I realised i needed a top off the line alarm ! I hunted around and inspected all the options at the time and settled and ended up getting the guys...

I was looking @ Supercharging my SC400 Limited. Trying to find a cost effect way of getting some power when i came a cross the small blower off a 1GGZE Toyota. Since then i have notice Castlemain Rod Shop is usiong this exact Blower in a kit for 3.8 V6 Commadore engines. This got me thinking and...

Thanks heaps Lambo, Graetly appreciated. Stephen

Hi all, Whilst I have seen a few articles about replacing the Hydraulic fan with Electric ones to gain power, I have not seen anyone fully remove the hydraulic system rather just the fan and clkutch peice. Does anyone know how the complete system works ? The lines run into the motor ? I fear...
