Nismo_Boy Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 why no forced induction over its life? Even though I’m way bored of it, and it owes me a fortune, if it were not to sell, which we all know it more then likely wont, I’ll throw a Vortech onto it. I can charge it for around $5k, and @ 15psi it’s a 450hp+ car. The auto’s been built, so that won’t be braking anytime soon. Then again, the parts to make a 1uzfe a manual these days aren’t all that expensive anymore. All pipe dream talk really, at the end of the day I want another turbo performance car anyway.

Nismo_Boy Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Thanks Mushy, someone I know has already had a chat to them, and they built “LEX S” a few years back. Bang for buck, I'm not happy with the power their setups make, although it is still an option if I can huggle them pn price/ Not really after a “blower” set up on top of the motor though, I prefer the vortech/pro-charger supercharger set up's If anyone has Vortech hook ups yall know were to find me Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/158079-thrashed-lexus/page/2/#findComment-2946843 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nismo_Boy Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 Car might be sold and heading to NSW, Lee... If it doesn't go through, it's Supercharger time.

Insomniac Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Your car has now been resprayed has it not? I'm sure I drove past it on Caloundra Rd on Monday (parked outside bike shop)...

Nismo_Boy Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Shhh! People might think it's half clean rofl. Nah, wasn't me, hasn't been out let alone started for the past 2 weeks. What colour was the one your saw? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/158079-thrashed-lexus/page/2/#findComment-2958843 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insomniac Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I think it was a dark blue or greeny colour - can't be too sure tho, as I was just coming off the roundabout (just before the bike shop) at speed... It definitely had plates similar to LXUSS though, and had some decent sized chromies - that's why I thought it was you.
