Time to change the name from poor man mods to relatively well to do man mods. Lol

I did a ar5 swap on my ls400 and I daily it for 3 yrs. Its stock. I love it.

[@Jays_Altezza]

3UZ cost 1500 but i want to track my car and daily. I'm gonna sell my crappy 3gfe if i can sell it.

[@therealboofighter]

I probably won’t do it, but I have been dreaming of a mk3 Supra with a 3uzfe swap. Kind of like a Japanese Corvette.

[@mardicas]

Great wrap up! Enjoyed the UZ swap series. I will go the NA-T route on my IS300 though.

[@chrisc7764]

I'm with you. Swaps like this make more sense for daily drivers. I threw a 1MZ in my Celica and it's so much fun. The 3S-GTE was an option for me but it was overkill for my needs, and the 1MZ was cheaper.

[@CACressida]

When I swapped my Cressida to a 1UZ, I made money. Helps having a wrecked donor to sell parts off of.

Great video, can't wait to see the numbers update of before and after

[@DIYAUTOCAR]

I've tossed around the idea of this engine for my s13 but the support just isn't there yet. Although I do also think that the support will grow as traditional swap engines like sr, rb, jz engines keep getting rarer and more expensive. The transmission conversion kits are what have kept me from it. Hate to say it but it would be nice for some of the knockoff companies to copy some of the kits out there to make these swaps more affordable.

Any chance of a video showing how to tune with the spitronics hyspace programs for newbies? 1uz are becoming more and more popular swaps and spitronics is the cheapest options for stand-alone but with hardly any contents out there about the spitronics mercury2 ecu any help would be appreciated.

[@dwnrety1]

Hearing those numbers makes me feel a bit better about the ~$4000 I spent going the LS route.

[@CSM.HBJ-Dogg]

My dream build is using the 1gzfe

[@merc2ss]

Hey can you do a breakdown on turboing/building the motor next?

[@jonsysimmons1600]

Pinku Style good vibes great guy.

[@JJBToyotaSupra]

I'm guessing you don't have idle control due to the throttle lock. The idle control is the electronic throttle body and some ecu dont support dbw control. It doesn't have a IACV like a JZ.

Are the gs300 and gs400 automatic transmissions same?

[@hanselito2416]

Is it possible to make a tuner car quiet? I absolutely hate the noisy bs and ppl say "that's horsepower"

[@RazoE]

Swapping a V8 in is always worth it, regardless of the price.

[@psalm302]

Well off mans mods* 😂
