Yeah, I missed her. I kept in touch with the guy who bought it. Mostly cause he had to put the mess Chris & I created back together.
He did a pretty good job.
I was thinking about reaching out to ya.
So catch me up. Your going with a 4.7?
Did something happen to the 1UZ?

Are you still driving the car with the 4.0, or have you taken it apart altogether?
I keep thinking the tundra 5.7 in the back of my head, but making power really isn't my problem right now. Getting everything to work together is where I'm focused.
Are you still in St Louis?

I do like the sound of an SC570 TT :-)
Hey Scott if your going to be in chicagoland next weekend, My car is going to be at World Of Wheels. Chris (CMRacingonline.com, & ParkingGaraj.com) are sharing a booth, and asked to display my car. It's the 1st-3rd of March at the Rosemount convention center in Rosemont. (Near Ohare airport)
If you get a chance, stop by and say hello. Chris, and I should be there.
Same with the rest of club lexus, come say hello
I agree with you. Making power isn't really a problem on the UZ.
Don't know if I'd say reliable. I chased my share of bugs around mine :-(
The 5.7's are susposedly making 500+ through the auto on 5 PSI! Thats pretty cool :-)
That swap might be more of a pain then it's worth though. (throttle by wire n all)
