The longer i sit here thinking abt it, the more i lean towards swapping out the 4AC and blowing it up with some dynamite.

the 1UZ is the new big thing to do, and i think its very cool, but is it more practical than a 4AGZE? Ive been toying with the idea of a 4AGZE for a couple of years so immediately this was the first place i wanted to go. What incentive is there to having a 1UZ vs a 4AG forced induction setup? the aftermarket is minuscule for the 1UZ, am i right?

also, im trying to keep an open mind about what im going to do next with my car. the impossible might even happen and ill keep it 4AC

ps. i want a Levin

the v8 has twice the hp of the 4ag stock, there is a huge aftermarket for it, and going ze requires alot of little tedious work(as does the 1uz). In my Levin I'm going 1uz and eventually supercharging it.

I'm right there with you manifesto I want to ditch the stock (i have a largeport) from my understanding the main benefit is with the 1UZ you just swap it in and you have instant power although it requires a bit of fab work for the headers to fit right (I believe they have to be custom made). Personally the thing I like about the GZE is it's the same size as the original engine (4AG) you don't have to worry about custom motor mounts and what not and can make a decent amount of power if you turbo it or stay with the S/C. It really depends how much hp/tq you want and what it's for.

i might be looking to sell my plug and play (into a GTS) blacktop 20v setup!

this is relevant to my interests... tell me more

Well, it's currently running in my kouki GTS coupe right now...
Engine: 20v Blacktop with Toyota COP ignition and stock coil and igniter so the stock tach works. Not sure which filter setup, but it's either a single long filter setup or a T3 Trumpet and Individual Uni filter setup.
Ecu: Stock with Dr. Tweak Converted Harness
Header: OBX 20v RWD Header
Transmission: Stock T-50
Clutch & Pressure Plate: from what i remember...Disc is ACT Street with ACT Stage 2 pressure plate (something like that)

Not sure what else you want to know...in any case, you can email me at mandm177@gmail.com if youre really interested.

have ridden in this car, runs smooth and pulls hard!

I have video of it proving this.

filming car is 16v 4age, other is black top 20v with Brak Box for these runs.

Nice runs....

thats with some short shifting and 1000 less revs than what i have now! oh, and a quieter exhaust too. lol.

Haha you're so happy you fixed that rpm cut!
