    do you think Valiant enthusiasts would kill me if i fitted a 1UZ to this?

    Don't do it. It won't be the same car if you do. I know someone who dropped a 454 in a 1992 Shelby Mustang(made without shelby's permission and production was halted before they even made a hundred of them). The original motor was fast, and everyone knows the potential of those 5.0 engines...

    Simple Alternator Question. Car stereo related. please look.

    I think i have a weak battery. Not labled well, so i don't know it's specs. Would it be a good idea to pop for a good battery. i.e. 850CCA w/ 120 min reserve? Also if i do have problems, would you recommend a capacitor? Some people think their worthless, and others are true believers...

    Simple Alternator Question. Car stereo related. please look.

    Does anyone know how many amps the stock alternator on my 1991 LS400 is cranking out? the auto parts stores sell one at 90 amps, and another at 100 amps. I am building a good car stereo, and my mono amp at 500wRMS powers my subwoofer of 500wRMS, and i'm going to do another 2channel amp...

    Alignment Nightmare

    I assume something must be loose, i forgot to mention that often times i hear a strange rattle from my front-right and i don't know what it is, but i guess perhaps it's connected with my alignment problems.

    I need help upgrading speakers

    I have an aftermarket Pioneer Premier Stereo. I removed my front left to check for wattage, and it did not say, it really ticked me off because it took so long to do. I only had the stock pioneer system, if i had the Nak system i'm sure i'd be happy. But if you think the Nak speakers were...

    LS400 1990 SUBWOOFER

    upgrading your sub (in inches) Even though your stock sub maybe only 8 inches, it is difficult to find any quality subs in that size today when you go to the audio store. Rip out the old system, take some quality metal snips(get 'em at home depot) and cut about 12-18 nice size snips(start...
