S13 with 1UZFE 4 litre V8 - Drifting forum

Pictures speak louder than w...

Plus

Equals

Great success!

115k miles. Car's mint. Engine's not right, doesn't appear to be headgasket as described in the advert, as there is no gunk in the cap etc etc. Fired it up when we got it to the unit (flat battery), was running on 3 or 4 and not happily running, so we stopped it and await taking it to bits to find out whats wrong.

If the engine is kaput then it's not the end of the world. I need the loom, dashclocks and the autobox bellhousing, so for the price I paid for this it's still worthwile.

This is going to be a long term project. With the eventual goal being a 12:1 comp ratio'd, 294degree cammed, ITB'd, 8krpm revving, Omex managemented 1UZFE powered "lipstick" colour S13. Should be fun and stuff.

Thats gonna be fricking cool

**SteveDunn** · 19-07-2007, 12:20

Yeah, due to having to save up for stuff (like 4 fricking cams! Stupid quad cams...), it's going to be a proper long term jobby
