    I agree.
    1uz is a great motor. But is small, and there's a much easier, more powerfull alternative.

    Unique doesn't mean good.

    L98 if you won't mod it, L76 with a cam would be a screamer

    u can get crate ls motors for $3.5k.

    u want a cheap motor, 1jz for $700, get a t4 manifold and a big turbo.

    thats cheap but in the end will cost the same.


    buy a soarer with a 1uz and put on an m90. been done but its good power for them

    Thats the best choice.


    That way not only can you have a gay engine, you can look gay driving a soarer
