I didn't know where to place this post... so I thought this would be the best section

Have a look at this guys engine...a twin turbo'd v8 (2UZ-FE from a Tundra pickup truck) in his supra. Now that would go perfectly in either a Soarer or Celsior, preferably mine! The detail is amazing.

mmmmm....i wonder how much it would be to import one of these engines already done??

dont need to import one, im sure there are some around in Australia. i think 1uz bottom end can be used with the 2uz head, or maybe the other way around. lots of the guys in the US have put on in there soarer/celsior.

Yeah seen this vid few times, I think the 1UZ 4.7 Tundra has an Iron block so it a lot heavier than the Alloy 1U, the 2UZ I am unsure about though.

2UZ is available in AU - It's a Landcruiser engine. Cast iron block, with 94mm bore and an alloy head.

Already building a 2UZ Mark, it is long term project. I'm designing the valves, camshafts and the intake manifold at the moment (as a matter of fact, working on it right now)

To go into a light chassis for track use.

Awesome build, the widebody kit looks arse though, ruins the Supra's lines.

If I had loads of money and didn't have to work full time, I'd probably do loads of nutty projects like that too, just to keep amused.

Of course I have little money and no time due to work, but its great to see others doing stuff like this. :-)
