    Can't decide on IMF headers / Special $399 Group Buy

    Jb, what do you think about a y pipe before the cats, 3" mid-pipe, and another y pipe before the mufflers. That's very close to stock.

    turbo: vvti or non?

    Depending on which year 1uz you have. Earlier yrs. 92-94 have thicker rods which can handle a lot of juice. If you go with the vvt-i 98+ you'll have a good hp base of 290hp to start off with, but you wouldn't want to run too much boost. It also depends on your power goals.

    Is this possible on a stock 1uz vvti?

    I was hoping to be able to run a safe 50 shot more often than a 75. For a v8 a 50shot should be pretty harmless.

    Is this possible on a stock 1uz vvti?

    Custom exhaust, bfi mod, headers, zex 50hp shot, safc, and fined tuned by a dyno shop. Is 400hp crank possible?

    1UZ - W58 Adaptor plate Teaser Pic.

    Do they actually have an adapter to mate the w58 bellhousing onto the 1uz engine, instead of having to remove the 1uz bell housing.

    Manual swap in VVti SC400, any more issues than non-vvti?

    I'm in line to do a 5spd w58 swap on.. my sc400 98 vvti. I'm doing research right now and also have a complete 5spd w58 swap off of a 95 sc300. What I'm trying to find out is whether the adapter plate for the a340 bellhousing will also work on my a650e bellhousing, in order to mount the w58...

    H&R coilovers on my vvti sc400

    I'll take some the next time I remove the wheels. They look sick the way the red springs matches my red ls400 calipers.

    Can't decide on IMF headers / Special $399 Group Buy

    Rite on Jb! That's good news, but I'll have to block it off though. Any suggestions? After hearing a few people talk about the egr not mating with the afterm headers got me worried a bit there. Also jb why would i have to install the cats staggard?

    Let's talk about BPU 1UZ-FE

    Does it really make that much of difference to delete the EGR? Wouldn't you NOT be able to pass smog that way?

    Can't decide on IMF headers / Special $399 Group Buy

    IMF headers came in already, and it just took a few days, Lol.. I was expecting them in maybe mid December. They look very nice. The welding is not as thick as I thought they would be, but I think they're suppose to be that way, right? Also, they came with all the gaskets and even bolts...

    H&R coilovers on my vvti sc400

    I lowered both the front and the back with 1 finger gap, and it's good! Feels a bit stiffer but handles pretty well. Now would I recommend this setup? Defiitely yes and especially for daily street driving. Track may be a bit too soft. good luck.

    Trade I need a SAFC! Trade for 5spd w58 swap + cash

    Great offer but I will have to pass up on this one. I'm looking for something nice and simple, and that's tuning with a basic safc unit after headers, bfi, and exhaust. The entire 5spd kit will sell for $800 cash local pickup, or $900 shipped.

    98 GS400 Timing Belt

    Timing Belt Replacement on SC400 VVTi. Wait... Don't get excited just yet. But I wanted to mention that once I hit 150K and am able to find a garage to use for a day or two, I will document my timing belt replacement. Why 150K? Because I figured the timing belt had to have been changed at...
