Hello,

Any chance you still have any 1UZ performance parts available?

Thanks

hi i have start problems with 94 ecu in my 96 1uz i have swap over pin 24 and 25. but the engine just fire ones do you know what more i can do`?

cheers

hi what projects are you planing / working on

i have thought about that. I sit in a manual 16 speed john deer tractor all day working the gears and i was thinking it would be nice to hope in an auto to drive home in
the reason i want to put the 4x4 trans on it also is it has a neutral in the range change and i tow the ute around on an Aframe behind the tractor as well

i know autos can't be towed safely

Hi , just thinking your ute being 4x2 it might work out better just install the V8 only , and adapt it to the current gearbox this might need a bit of research though

Have you got any pics of your toy?

Finally converted lol

Hey!!
I joined!!

Hello, I am a major newbie and had a question. I am trying to get a wire from the battery to the trunk, and I was wondering if you could tell me the best way how?

Pretty much how and where to put it through, from the battery to the cabin and then the cabin to the trunk. Which spot should I poke through?

Thank you so so much!

Hi Crambo,

I have heard about your legendary MA61 project!

I'm from near Melbourne Airport, but I will be up your way next Monday for a wedding. I was wondering, do you ever let someone check out the V12?

I'm thinking of buying an MA61 and storing it for a future project like this. I don't know much about cars, but the MA61 is a passion of mine.

I have a new Toyota 86 GTS black manual atm!

Anyhow, let me know if you're cool for someone to swing by and have a look!

Also, just curious, have you been noting down all the steps for the conversion? Is there a guide?

Cheers,

Hey I just looked at your pics of the lexus powered 944.
I have one in my 944 as well, but I did not want a hole in the hood so I made an intake and put a 525 demon carb on it. I did this about 10 years ago so it is older.
Just nice to see someone like minded.

Hey mate, just wondering where about's this bus is these days?
I did the original conversion.

There are heaps of options. My most used piston that I really like is the CP piston. I stay away from wiseco which are still a good piston but there finished sized are not matched so often each bore has to be sized to the piston. With the CP piston they are all the same size so boring is all the same. For rods I have used a few and often I use dirty old Eagles. They are well priced and I havent had any issues. Used them in heaps of other engines as well. The Argo rod is most likely a better product. Its more often the setup, machining and tuning which gives the good end result more than the type of piston and rod. I would recommend you find a good machine shop and sit down with them to discuss your build. Work out a plan and then stick to it. Everyone will have different opinions on what is good and what is not. Follow good work practices and double check everything. A good head gasket is very important with a boosted engine

Hope this helps

Cheers

As you know a fair bit about the 1uz what the best piston rod combination for strength and price.

Would your instructions include the 88 89 4runner that you have for sale on your website?

Hi! I'm from Russia and got a little problem finding out how to wire 1UZ ECU (89661-3A080) to my Toyota Cresta GX100, the main thing is that I've got no plug for 28P on ECU, the second- I don't have any wiring diagram, would appreсiate any help. My e-mail is [email protected], please help or tell where can I get that help. Thanx in advance!

hi, i was reading your topic "Attention all Howe Bearing user!!", that very help me, because a would swap 1uz with w58 gearbox to my supra and i didn't find much information about concrete part for this build, so your topic advise me with bearing, and plesure plate, can you tell me what fly wheel and clutch did you use? or what setup is best to you? sorry for my english, im not native speaker

Sorry for the PM, but I figure it has been asked and I can't find it. I have a 93 LS400. It is already swapped to a KA24DE 5 speed. I have a W58 with adapter plate, bell housing, throw out and fly wheel. What else do I need besides a clutch? Do I need a shifter adapter, drive shaft change or any of that jazz? Any help would be great. If the topic has not been discussed please fell free to let me post it up as a topic to help others. Thanks in advance.

Hi
I messed up and put my trans question in the alternative fuel section. Can you delete my post?

Thanks
