    Standalone ECU Wolf V500 On a 1UZ Soarer

    Not sure if anyone is aware or not but very soon Wolf will have a plugin adapter for the new V500 ECU for 1UZ Soarer's. The big thing here is the ECU can also control the trans so looks like a good value upgrade for those with a soarer or a good option for anyone looking for a standalone for a...

    Wolf3D V4 Maps

    Thought id add a few maps that should get most people started. They Should Be Used As A Starting Point Only, So Use With Caution. Use a Wideband AFR Meter To Confirm The Mixtures Are Safe and a Timing Light To Confirm The Spark Is The Same As Whats Being Commanded By The Wolf. Also note...

    VVT-i Revealed....

    I was doing a bit of reading and came across a pdf of how the VVT-i works on a 3UZ, it will also be applicable to the later 1UZs. While it uses the oil pressure it works the same as most other variable valve setups and should be no problem for a high end aftermarket ECU that supports VVT as it...

    Which Wideband??

    Well with my crappy wideband finally bitting the dust its time for a new one that actually logs multiple channels which will make life much easier! So far it is down to two candidates.... 1) Innovative LM1 with LMA3 box, or 2) PLX R500 Both are pretty equal in terms of specs and price -...

    Whats This From??

    Hopefully someone can tell me what model gearbox this connector is from.. The gearbox is not the one that was originally attached to my 1UZ (from a LS400/Majesta, front sump) as i required a gearbox with the slip yoke year not the rubber coupling style. I have the harness from the Majesta but...

    Hydaulic Fan to Thermo Fans

    Ive read a few threads about this conversion and basically says to use a crown setup and dont fit the clutch fan so it is used just as an idler. Problem is i cant get hold of a crown setup, so i pulled the pump apart in the hope i could run it without oil by removing the internals of it. It...

    1UZ into a Commodore

    Hi, I have been looking at doing this for some time and have finally got around to looking into it properly. I will be running a Delco on it as i already have a pretty good understanding of it, just the twin dizzy setup that looks like it may take some time to figure out- but anything is...
