Project e46 v8 scratch that s14 vhate drift car

[xudlingo]

Well had lots trouble with the crappy chocolate BMW engine changing million sensor turned out to be just throttle body

So collecting bits up for a 1uz lexus v8 engine bomb proof engine with better power


how it started

New rotas


1uz engine

Adapter plate


Just collecting parts at the moment

[Midnightclub]

Will keep an eye on this. Out of interest are you just swapping out the engine and keeping the box, shafts diff etc.. or swapping it all out?

[xudlingo]

Will be using BMW box they cheap and pretty strong also means less work no custom prop mounts shifter etc.

Most people use supra box to make 1uz a manual would went that route if wasn't a BMW I was putting it in adapter kit cheaper

Engine and adapter should be here this week

[Midnightclub]

You keeping the stock open diff then? or is it being welded and used as a drift car etc.. or is it staying on the road

[xudlingo]

Well its already welded up its my other half's drift car lol. It will be use on road also to get to local track not a BMW man my self I was ready to burn it trying to find the electrical fault [ANGRY FACE]

[silverzx]

These 1UZ's sound f--king nuts with straight throughs. Definitely the way to go on a budget! Just a shame the gearbox conversion plates are a bit of a ball ache and then obviously the normal bits - mounts, loom etc.

Fair play!

[xudlingo]

Tell me about it got a video of the engine running mmmm
There is a company that do a fly and adapter everything needed to fit to 1uz. I'm not worried about wire just fitting exhausts in there lol

I have a 200sx just like u and the bm drifting was a nightmare to that sore on the arms

[Midnightclub]

Yeah fault finding these can be interesting, having a copy of INPA makes it a lot easier though. Obviously irrelevant now though! lol

[Dum-Dum]
