My LS400 Rebuilt Project. Lots of pics.
I'm just sharing my current project I've been working on. I'm in a process of doing a rebuilt of 1uz motor to be swap into my 93 LS400 that have been broken down. I'm also adding a Bullet M90 supercharger kit with it too.
My Worklog that I will update often. http://www.lextreme.com/forums/showt...d=1#post103949 This is the final product of how it should be. I hope. http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/313...1122245lom.jpg Now to start. This is what she look like right now. On jack stands. http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/2714/img2977medium.jpg http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/3...2971medium.jpg http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/3489/img2970medium.jpg I got a free medium mileage motor from my friend David(Lextreme). It's a little burn but the internal is in great shape. That is all I need since I'm doing almost full rebuilt. http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/4...2871medium.jpg http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/7...2879medium.jpg http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/4...2885medium.jpg http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9306/img2884medium.jpg |
The Tear down begins. Thanks to my buddy Steve(Stevechumo) for taking out his precious time to come over and lend me a hand.

Looks very very nice. What kind of numbers do you expect to put down?
|
Very nice. I am also thinking about FI on my LS in a few months. What kind of numbers are you expecting to make?
|
Damm, now that's badass!!! If you don't mind me asking. How much did it cost you for the supercharger set-up? I wish I had the money to do something like that to my LS... Keep up updated when you can!!
|
Very nice James. I remember your SC which was also very hot.
|
Wonderful! I am also curious what kind of numbers you're expecting.

Transmission is being rebuilt with high performance internals parts. Also, the Torque convert is being rework with a bit higher Stall speed. Hopefully, all this will give me at least 250rwhp for now. I know it's pretty mild. But I want to be reliable as it was a stock new car. :)

http://bulletcars.com/superchargers/...er-system.html Price is $5950AUD. So that is roughly about $5345USD + $300/400 for shipping. But I got a little bit of discount with a help of my friend Lextreme. :D

That's sweet James! I remember this car, it's a 93 I think. It's one of my favorite first gens on CL. The previous owner was a member here a few years ago. It looked sick with the Brabus wheels on it. I'm also interested in the price of this kit. Are you considering the stroker kit with lower compression from Lextreme? This would be a beast with some more boost and displacement. Keep up the good work bro, it looks like you are going to get this done rather quickly. :thumbup:

Just seeing those parts, that looks like a crazy build. I'm sure alot of the SC4 guys would love to see how your 1uz comes together
|
Really nice looking build! good job on that melted down motor! sounds like a good plan to get it running nice on low boost, keep everything from blowing up, 250rwhp would be strong! look forward to more pics!

You should contact Lextreme. He might be able to get you some deals with this Supercharger it. I'm was orginally planing a 4.7 Liter iron block Turbo setup for this project. But I change to do a Vip Style with mild power setup instead. |
