3UZ sump,Interchangeable with 1UZ?

[splatt]

Bought a 3UZ, it is a mid/rear sump, think I'm going to need a front sump, are they interchangeable,(including pickup) with a 1UZ ??

[Adash=P]

Call a Toyota parts department and see if they'll tell you the part numbers for the sump on both engines.

I reckon they should be interchangable as its the same engine family.

[PRIMRK]

Any one able to get confirmation on this, parts guy i got was borderline brain damaged.

[slipway]

have you tried looking on v-eight.com or lextreme

[PRIMRK]

yeh they say yes but you need an 8mm drill bit...but no reason why you need it.

Will be a weapon with a UZ in it!!

Mates old man has a built 350 chev in one, built back in the 80's.... so totally cool.

I have a healthy love of 928's, after being taken for a strap in a 928 GTS back in the 90's when it was crowned 'Australias fastest production car'.... was only a young fella at the time, but still have the boner to this day....

It will be interchangeable but may need to enlarge a couple of the bolt holes is all.

[PRIMRK]

ok and can any one tell me what sump (front/mid/rear) the LS430 came with? i have been lookin round and cant find it, even went to the dealership but i couldnt see under the car enough to figure out where the sump was in relation to the block.

2002 had this one , 100% interchangeable with 1UZ,
I have had both front and rear 1UZ sumps bolted up to find the best fit, (eventually just modified the original)
You do have to enlarge a couple of the mounting bolt holes in the 1UZ,alloy girdle, easy, as Justin said above, 8mm drill, 2 minutes.(the 3UZ has a couple of heavier diameter bolts,(same locations 1UZ/3UZ-, holes just need to be enlarged a bit)

(it would be real hard to find the sump by looking under a car at a dealers, REAL well hidden surounded by the crossmember.Sump/pan sits in the middle of it)

For the entire production run 1978-1995, it was Porsches quickest car, even quicker than the turbo wide body 911's
(will be even better with the 3UZ)

Slam that boner in a door a few times, even your girlfriend will be sick of it by now

my 3uz is going into a sprinter and we have fabed all mounts up with a 1uz in it so im hoping that nothing will have to be undone, that we can just unbolt box and sumps and swap em over!

It will not work with a 1UZ factory ECU.(Vvti, different Trannie for starters)
It will not start with 3UZ factory ECU unless you have the original ignition key-search.

[PRIMRK]

haha nah r154 and standalone ecu, sorry should have been more clear. i just dont want to find out that the bold holes are in the wrong places.

[splatt]

Should have no problem with bolt holes, How are you controling the fly by wire throttle ?

[PRIMRK]

That I havnt figured out yet... Any ways to do it? I been looking at itb's but that was later down the track, unless I make a new manifold with a pair of 1uz tb on it...?!?

[JustenGT8]

Just buy a generic TB and run a cable. FBW is shit anyways

[PRIMRK]

Fbw? Yeh was thinking that, a friend is crafty with a tig so I may get him to make me something.

I don't think this will work for me, I intend to run factory ECU and 5speed auto.
Is there any way to fool the ECU? I would think the FBW would be one of it's main imput signals.

[PRIMRK]

as long as the tps is still there it should be fine yeh? or is ecu getting sig form pedal?

[smiley_666]

the ECU would be receiving a signal from the pedal, then telling the "electrric TB" what to do.
- you will almost certainly have to keep it to make the stock ECU work
