A bit of a factoid about the 1UZ. It is the only automotive engine that is certified by the FAA to be dropped directly into an airplane with no modifications. It’s so smooth, reliable, and overall great, that it is comfortable with sustained high RPM’s in an aircraft. Stock.
Links?
What about rolls Royce ?
@@phillipyoung3250What about Rolls Royce? What do you mean?
I got a tundra 3400 you think the bell housing would bolt to the 1uz I'm new to the Toyota swap
@@moosestangls5099 No it won't bolt directly to it, but there are adapter plates that will adapt the 1UZ to the 3400 transmissions. Definitely beware of the power output difference. You wouldn't want to blow up the transmission you have.
Toyota spent so much money, time and research to make the 1uz. Its worth the time to learn about it.
And the 1UZ has very strong street 'cred', even in South Africa, if replacing a 'X' motor in the same X car/truck.
They had to make a statement with the Lexus debut, and damn they did
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. 1UZ all the way! If you get a chance, maybe give us a walkaround video where you cover all the work you did. That'll allow you to work at a reasonable pace, but still give us a look at what you did after it's all done.
I did a 1uz swap in my 1989 pickup 10 years ago and it's been great. Ditch the hydraulic fan pump from that SC400 and use the idler bracket from that 2uz. Only other issue you may run into is the older 1uz's ECUs can have capacitors go bad. The most common capacitor failure will cause it to not send power to the injectors. I know a rebuilder with a great reputation if you need this service.
What mpg are you getting with that swap? I have an 89 and really want to do this swap, should be more efficient than the 3.0
@@turnerables I don't do enough street driving to really get an accurate number, but most of the others I spoke to when I was originally doing the swap said theirs got around 17-19mpg, which is a little better than the 3.0 I think.
@@stevew9247 19 is fine. The fact that my 3.0 is on 33s and a 4” lift definitely doesn’t help. I’m probably going to drop it 2” and swap to 31’s eventually. That will still be plenty for me here in Florida.
Man we are on the same page. I want a 93 1uz for my 93 pickup 😂 and I would never put anything. It Toyota in my truck! Can’t wait to see you drive this thing!
I had this same debate when doing my swap. I ultimately went 2uz because i liked having the iorn block, thought the lower torque would be great. And the fact that the 2uz has lower compression and they made millions of them.
That and you don’t have to run premium gas
Love the burnt dash now being immortalized on the parts wall.
Hahaha I was about to write the exact same thing ! I also have a museum wall in my garage to remind me of some mistake I made myself. Hehe
The 1uz block is thicker between the liners and has thicker roads that the 2uz.
I have seen people turboing it and got out 650hp and 1100Nm of torque. Of course diferent ecu ( halteck 2500) biger injectors bosh 044 feeding pump etc
Nugget garage did 1000hp on a built 1uz
So glad you came around to the 1uz. Best option. Best engine in my opinion
I am very excited to see your truck back out on the trail. its awesome that you did not give up on it an engine fire would definitely would have probably stopped me dead in my tracks. keep up the good work I look forward to every video
Thanks for the video man. Yeah, let's get back to some 4 wheeling now.
I love this series, but hearing "Uz-Ed" that many times was rough haha. but good work! great job
In Canada we pronounce Z as Zed haha
This is top level toyota content. Very inspiring and worthy of way more views. Keep it up bro.
Can’t wait to see it on the trail again man. Great work.
To bad Toyota didn’t put those in the pickup back in the day. The V6 was a dog. Mine was pull out and sent back to Japan. Was one of the 1st ones to have a hole in the piston. So they replace it.
It’s been rebuilt 2 times in its 32 years. (That’s the replaced motor). One the it came with was sent back.
Thank for the info about the motor you put in your 89. 👍🏼
1UZ looks way better in there vs the 2UZ. Good choice.
What was you're transmission you used and also what was the wiring like? Did you buy and aftermarket harness
I like that your keeping it all Toyota! The period correct is also pretty cool!!!
People will always have their opinions...do what is the strongest, most convenient for you.
sounding good there Clint Hope to see ya soon back on the trail.
Thinking about doing this swap to my 88 Toyota it's got the 3.0 v6.
But my truck is lifted 30" & has 44s boggers under it. So it really needs more power to turn these tires over especially if i put a set of 54s or 58s under it.
Putting on supercharger in a 1UZ is also a nice route. There are different adaptor plates for different supercharger . A lil bit more aftermarket support than the 2uz nice choice
Great to see you've gone for the 1uz! And man, you're doing great!
I’m planning this for my 85 4runner, my brothers into Lexus 400s so trying to find him a parts car to buy, I get the motor and he keeps the car lol
Love the content man!
Is this not the best sequel to Christian Bale's, The Machinist? He put the weight back on and got happy. Way to go, Bale! Give that guy a V8!
Super happy for you buddy!!! Good job on the truck!!!
95-97 are interference engines, and they have the same dinky rods as the vvti. 90-94 have the beefier rods, and are non interference.
Nice to see you went with the 1uz. Didnt know you were not dead set on finding another 2uz, there is a turbo diesel 1kz-te in B.C. for sale.
Man those Diesel engines are complete turds
Great job! One request? Could you make a compilation video from the beginning?
Who knew Kid Rock was a car guy?!
Dammm...i was work around v8 toyotas.just giving up idea to putt it in mine 93 4 runner....i guess adapter kit wasn't existing.. Spend so much money.on rebuild kit.. Even i got diesel nissan 4 cyl..3.5..i had idea to make clone.. But is to havy..
Now..you got me bro...im on the road again.. Looking for a v8..
The 1uz is home in that engine bay, looks great!
Did your 95 sc400 1uz come with the hydraulic fan ? If so you can use just about any “fan bracket” from a non vvti 1uz and 2uz.
This, that, and the other thing; soon to be
pavement, dirt, rocks, and trails!
Dude the wall is badass 😎
You are full of entertainment😃 Interessting videos as always. 👍
Perfect .Want to replace my 3vze with the 1uz.
I am currently looking into swapping a 1uz into my Toyota if I can buy my old car from auction and I’ve been wondering how hard it would be
Bro you have really good videos keep it up
Gotta see and hear it.
Newcomer to your channel great job kid 🤠👌
Close to the same power? I have a 1UZ in my Lexus GS and it makes about 310 horsepower and torque. A good deal more power and torque than any year of 2UZ. But the 1UZ in the GS requires premium gas as well.
Having owned both engines in two different vehicles, I absolutely love the engine family. I do have some things I don’t like about them though.
I don’t like timing belt systems. This is not the most difficult valve timing system to service, but it’s not easy.
I absolutely hate where the water pump is, and the fact that it’s driven off the timing belt. So dumb.
Heck yea dude you wont regret the 1uz. It will last u forever
That was one hell of a good explanation!
Thanks!
I cannot find a 1st gen tundra with this swap anywhere
1uz non vvti is my choice as well but in my mk3 supra
Awesome comparison thanks🤙
I wouldn’t have messed with that burned engine either
Yo question. i have an 84 pickup i am thinking about doing a 1uz swap. If i have gearing for rock crawling in my rear, i forget what it is, like 5.26 or something, will i need a new trans for this build? whats a good tranny for offroad use? did you keep the same transfer case? maybe i can just snag everything off a tundra or something?
Want that in my 82
Subbed the second i saw the BC plate!
1UZ!! Great update!
I have a 17 tacoma but if anything happens to it and I have to change the engine, I would want a UZ, I mean its already a manual, so... it would be nice
I'm considering doing this swap on my 95 4runner but I also need a transmission. I don't know much about anything.. wondering if I should go with the same transmission that comes with the 1uz engine or what else I need to consider for this to work?
Can the 1UZ go in to a 85 toyota celica with a R150 manual transmission? And what year models on the engine and transmmission? Thank you.
Looking into this now,
The way I see it if you drive it responsibly and sorta ease into gas pedal, and not just stomp it, the w56 trans may just hold up to it,
What do you think
epic come back!
Turbo sc400 on e85 is my goal for my 1uz
I just bought a 1992 sc400, I want to 2jz swap it, then put the 1UZ in my 1985 fj60.
Hi, so this is completely unrelated to this video but I was wondering how you lifted the corolla awhile back. Strut spacers?
please help
i have 1993 toyota motorhome
this is v6 3.0 its like pick up truck. so i can swap 1uz ??? v8 ?? is it same ?? please let me know. Thank you.
Can the 1UZ fit in a 85 toyota celica GPS with a 150R manual transmission? What years can they be?
What do you recommend to swap for my tocoma 1995 4x4 i have the 2.7l
I have a 1995 4Runner 4x4 automatic transmission what do I need to swap the 3vz to the 1uz?
I'm fairly certain I'm going to 1uz swap my 3rd gen 4runner. I have a customer that has 20 or so sc400's and wants to sell me one.
How much does he want for one?
does the 1uzfe mate to the r150f? I found a 2003 tundra with the 3.4L and just want to make sure that transmission will work with the 1 uz that I purchased. Can you send me the link for the bellhousing you used from ebay?
Do you know if the auto tranny A340F will mount up to the 1uz?
Im looking do this swap into a 1994 4Runner but mine is a automatic and a 4x4. Would you be able to help me in the right way to get some info on that swap.
So I would have to find a 92 1uz for my 92 automatic pickup 3.0?
I wonder if this would be a good engine swap for my 05 tacoma 4x4 to replace the 4.0 or go with the 4runner V8?
Good question
Another good video
engine mounting what did u do abut it with the new engine
You guys normally not use miles?
How do you know your junkyard engine doesn’t have a rod knock?
It has warranty, plus I got this engine running no problem.
Can this 1uz work with my Fj80 LC? /tia
I hate to burst your bubble mate but the 95 has the thin rods
Yup
Would you be willing to build my '81 toyota pickup for/with me? Have all the major parts and money to fund. I just want to be involved and learn some skills. Let me know:)
Will a 1UZFE fit in a 1987 Toyota Pickup?
Yup
And what about 1UZ FE 1998 in a 1993 toyota pick up 4x4?
Looking to swap out my 3.0 to the 1uz in my 1994 Toyota 4Runner. How much of a lift do you have to fit the 1uz in your truck?
I don't think you need any lift. Maybe a small body lift to move the engine back and clear the trans tunnel with bellhousing.
Hi, did you swap to 1uz?
3rz swap in future ?..... on something..... good content.......?
With this kind of effort. He would have a better time putting a 350 chevy
Eh. I'm not into the heavy sbc. These are stupid light, smooth, and decent on fuel.
Awesome
How hard was the wiring from the 3.4 to the UZ swap? I’ve got a 3rd gen 4runner and I’m tryna find info on swapping a 1uz in
He did a video recently with an aftermarket Spitronics waiting harness and it looks like it worked out great. Look in the channel videos 🤟
@@theotherserge yeah I saw that but it wasn’t really detailed info
And I believe that kit was for his model truck only, I could be wrong I took a quick glance at the stand alone link he posted
@@4runrJay Wiring is, for me, the most intimidating part. I might hire someone to help me when I eventually do this swap.
So gooooooood
what's the reason of fire ????
fuel leaked at initial startup on the previous swap and he we in cab and alone so didn't see it until she went up
If doing this swap and wanted to keep the AC, would the engine fit easily?
No clue
@@DirtGarage the same exact swap but with AC you would have no clue?
@@christiancarino4931 Never tried to keep AC. My truck does not have it
@@DirtGarage ok thanks for the reply and inspiration to do my swap
@@christiancarino4931 let us know if you can keep the ac
What kind of gearbox are you running on your 1uz engine?
Stock R150
In Jamaica we don't know I like that which òne of toyota lines does the r150 comes from
Ok got it now so the stock r 150 just bolts bck to the 1uz just fine ?
Nice
Why did you not get a JDM version? I always use JDM Texas or JDM Los Angeles when I swap in V6’s to a 1st Gen 4runner or 1st Gen Toyota Pick Up Truck.
More info please
@@chrishenry5945 what info do you need? You can google JDM Texas or JDM Los Angeles to pull up their webpage. I use these engines because Japan requires car dismantling at 100km so it will never have more than 45 thousand us miles. Excellent compression and super strong motors. If a citizen of Japan goes through a special process to keep it in service, then the may obtain the right to keep it road legal. American companies buy and import these engines to the states. All can be found on eBay or directly at vendor websites. In SoCal, it comes with a 90 day guaranteed smog pass warranty. If you want a full build write up in the conversion go to google Off-road solutions 3.4L Toyota 4Runner swap. You can get the bridge harness which mates to your factory dash from Toy Only Swaps in Oregon or have them due the entire swap for you. Hope this info helps. If you want one of these cars direct from Japan complete see Toyota Mini Truck out of Los Angeles. I have bought several right hand drives.
Yes stick with a Yota motor
Lexus power!
Sounds like ya got a good score
Lets gooooo!
Their is a difference in this engine swap this one didn't burn up.lol
👍
Thith isth great contenth
Keep it up! Great talk thru
