    Default 1uz + ra23 + ls1 coils + turbo

    So I don't run a thread on here about my car, I have my own website for that.

    But a few people have asked for an update.

    So I did some stuff today, and took some photos, so here's a quick update.

    The car:


    The LS1 Coils mounted and wired in passenger foot well



    Engine in bay



    Cut exhaust Manifold drivers side



    Cut exhaust manifold passenger side



    Closed Bonnet!



    The exhaust manifolds are simply the soarer ones reversed and cut.

    The Coils are LS1's, and the LPG system, albeit not really pictured, is pretty well custom the whole way through.

    This would be the LPG 1uz strad?

    Did you simply swap sides with extractors?

    You now near your folks place?

    Rode past your place in Ivanhoe the other day and saw nada.

    Can see you sorted out the R&P! Cliff notes?

    Yeah, out near the folks now, Ivanhoe is empty now, we're all out of there.

    Sorted the R&P, however it knocks a bit, so I don't think it's 100%, but I don't care right now, I'll get the car running first.

    Cliff Notes????

    are you running just the one blow-thru gas carbI?

    edit: isn't it cool how the motor looks so at home in that bay - there's a gold coast guy up here with 1UZ into RA28 (NA) and it impressed me everytime i see it

    I ride out near your folks' place all the time (once a week).

    Cliff notes regarding what you did to make R&P work? I saw there was a 2million page thread about this a while ago. What did you do in the end - just weld some tabs and bolt LCAs in the same spot?
