    1UZ-FE Db sound level question??

    My 80mm exhaust produces about 105 dB @ 4000 RPM, so just headers should be above 110 dB, I think

    A650E.. can kickdown be adjusted ?

    right, it's electronically controlled. probably GS may improve it, but I doubt. another option is to use aftermarket ECT computer.

    A650E + Early 1992 1UZFE - will it bolt up?

    To those who will be considering A650 + early A340 TC and overdrive gear with shaft, my answer is - yes it is possible. You can throw overdrive gear and shaft from early 1UZ A340 into newer A650 off crown JZS17x 2jzfse. However - this does not vork the other way, the A650 overdrive is way too...

    A650E + Early 1992 1UZFE - will it bolt up?

    There is no problem swapping A340/A3401 - the torque conevrter may sit ok, but it is better to drop input shaft from UZ tranny into yours. But when we talk about newer A650 - it all seems to be different.

    A650E + Early 1992 1UZFE - will it bolt up?

    Lex. appreciate your reply. I was thinking if it is possible to throw early A340 input shaft w/overdrive into A650 - in that case early A340 torque converter could bolt up.

    A650E + Early 1992 1UZFE - will it bolt up?

    sorry to bump the old thread, but I am currently considering transmission for my daily driver. The easiest way is to keep A341 (with electronic kick-down) - I have all the parts required to do the swap (torque converter, input shaft, stand-alone TCU), just need to buy transmission itself. The...

    OBX Racing plans to produce an Individual Throttle Body setup for the 1UZ-FE

    Sorry for that crap in the garage - single man runs several pojects at a time (1uz ITB, Turbo-Vitz). The enine will be used mostly as a daily driver, thus Rev limiter is set to 7500rpm.

    Extreme MPG from 91' LS400 ??

    Thinking about unplugging injectors is also a good idea, otherwise you'll get gasoline instead of oil :D in oil sump. You should try how it works - I had faulty ignition wires on couple of cylinders when I replaced engine. it is somewhat drivable, but I prefer to have engine running smoothly.

    Extreme MPG from 91' LS400 ??

    taking off even one cylinder spark plug brings up poor engine revving at low rpm. so, you're gonna kill your major powerband. one of the solutions would be 6-speed man V160 from Toyota Supra JZA80
