i'm on stock clutch now...
ever since my starter broke and the housing of itbroke off and blasted a hole in my tranny and also breaking the pressure plate....
=*(
i'm on a new tranny...new motor...sorry *** stock clutch that doesn't seem to grab like my spec stage 3 clutch =(
but anywho... the stage 3 was stiff... but brought alot of power to the wheels...
i notice alot of difference torque and hp.
but now i'm all stock..
stock clutch, stock intake...
i feel like my car is laggin... hopefully its not the timing?

I'm gonna take a wild guess here and suggest that he'd respond with something to the effect of: the 3VZ-FE is plenty capable of more power as it is. For what you'd spend on another motor, you could add a turbo and add as much horsepower as you can afford.

I'm gonna have to go with Slow on this one.. Phoenix is going to say something along the lines of "the 3VZ-FE has the highest amount of low range torque among the V6" and "our engines are quite capable of handling over 300hp on mostly stock internals with a simple turbo set up." Oh yeah, forgot the classic "use the search function.. I've answered this before." ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
