Singing the praise of the 1UZ

 

Good video. Every 1UZ video I've come across have always praised it as a superior engine. May take the aftermarket another 10 years to take a 2nd look into these engines before it gets the support it deserves.

 

Thanks Tallyhoe, once you do a 1UZ search on you tube they will send you like vids. I'm sure you already know that. There are quite a few supercharged, dual turbo's. 500-700hp. But every review gushes on what a great engine it is

I believe Toyota totally missed the vision of what the car really was. Hardly advertised it, never raced it, never realized the cars potential. Look what this club has been able to do just in home garages, never picked up on the soarer clubs in Japan. The Thunderbird and Mustang were revisioned on regular basis. Same Corvette and others.
Lexus just dumped it out there and let it dry up on the vine. They did that to a beautiful car that had maybe the finest production V8 ever.
