If anyone has a "in good condition" working 4agze supercharger and brackett, I'll shell out for it. Also, the intercooler and anything else. 8)
Thanks

i used to read about 4agze's and stuff and i remember them talking about how the compressor clutch can go bad and how the supercharger sometimes needs to be rebuild and stuff. i dunno if they have rebuild kits for them or how much it might cost.

i did some research and i found out that it is turned off at low boost to prevent the compressor clutch from wearing out and that some idiots mess with it so that it is on all the time and it wears it out and theirs not a way to rebuild it. as for the supercharger it is rebuildable, you have to replace the bearings within it.i found a small write up on it http://www.veglisteroidnz.co.nz/veglist ... REBUI.html
also i think their is a difference in the jdm and usdm superchargers that came on the gze because whenever you put the hks after market pulley on the usdm model it would spool it up to 10 psi as for 12 on the jdm model.

its just a compressor clutch.

I know a guy in houston that could either rebuild it, or get a new one to fit it.

LMK if you need one :wink:

yeah but its not good to make it so that its on all the time cus they will constantly wear, theirs a reason why Toyota made it so that its off at lower rpm's

yeah but it puts out enough power as is and it will literally kill them like crap and theirs no fun in replacing them left and right you want a good reliable setup, theirs a reason why your car is the way it is :lol:

non stop tuning sells a pulley kit that eliminates the crappy clutch type pulley and lets you up the boost

problem solved.

if you could make the supercharger whine more, I would say make it a sleeper and put it on a switch for racing
