I for one want to know how easy it was to break that rod. Is the 5.7 pretty weak?

I've been playing with the idea of selling my complete 1UZ-FE setup, including the intake pipes, bracket, battery relocation kit, fuel pressure regulator, pulley, belt..

That one will work :) Although $1500 for a blower? Jeeeeeezzzzz...... I've bought three and spent less than $750 each time.

The '95 LS had the hot wire. :)

it's not that carbs are that good, it's just that the factory ECU is incredibly BAD.

Want to sell it, Lex?

Not so fast about the Mustangs using a CW unit. My CCW unit is from a Mustang. The 5.0L or 87-93 Mustang kits are CW. The 4.6L kits are CCW, and are the ones you want.

... I would like to retract my previous post. The genuine alternator brush and holder can be bought for $13.74 from Lexus of Pembroke Pines. The eBay brush and holder is about $10. If I were to do this again, I would have purchased the genuine part.

When I first got my car, I used to insist on OEM parts. Now that it's so old and worthless, any money spent on OEM when an aftermarket part can be purchased for 1/4 to 1/10 the price is pretty much wasted. My brush and holder was a cheap Chinese piece that probably cost $.05 to make. But the...

Mine's at 16 years and 270,000, original, and it still works, although I did replace the brushes last year for the heck of it. The brush replacement job was preventative, and the brush and holder only cost like $4.00 or something, including shipping, from eBay - and it took a very short amount...

I never got as far as mounting it. I ordered a blower before doing enough reading, and then realized that I got the wrong one. I sold it, bought a CCW blower, sold that, put my supercharger project on hold for three years, then I finally bought another CCW blower and rigged it to work with the...

Well, at least you know that the starter works.

I would try a methanol injection scheme if I were you. The fact that I never did it to my car is what's keeping me at 3psi.

Your setup is almost identical to mine... down to the motor and supercharger, and intake routing. You just run waaaaaaaaaaaay more boost and have a healthier motor, I pulled 245rwhp with everything else completely stock, including the horrible auto trans and horrible exhaust and a gigantic 3.75"...

It won't work. It's a clockwise blower. I went through this actually - I had to sell the blower and bought a real ccw blower.

KC has come through again and sold me a knock sensor in great condition for a good price, and he sent it out promptly. Thanks again bro.

Okay, So I changed the ignition coils. Absolutely NO difference. That was money well spent. sheesh. Out of desperation, I put the copper plugs in anyway. Holy smokes, that fixed it! No more misfiring at all! But I still had my knock sensor code going, and it was annoying the hell out of me, so I...

I've put it into an attachment. So my car's started misfiring really, really badly now. No CELs were triggered. I bought some ngk v-power copper plugs to replace my 4 year old ngk iridiums, but when i pulled my iridium plugs out to inspect they looked perfect. even burn, no increase in gap...

in a word, why? they are pretty low output- 70-80a, have a four rib pulley, and are not the best.
