1UZ-FE V8 into S14 - HELP!!!!

[nikolaiski]

Selamat Hari Raya!!!!

I saw a few people's postings, ESPECIALLY MK84 (hehe) about the Lexus V8 engine, and I hope that you guys share a similar passion for the lightweight V8 that can kill an RB/SR/x-JZ series engine anyday...hehe

I've been looking at this transplant for nearly 1 year but I never really knew where to go to or where to start.

I hope you guys can help me out. What I am looking for is:

1- Cost of the complete engine with wiring to fit my S14

2- Cost involved for labour/what is needed to be done

3- Any reputable/reliable place in Malaysia to do? I am in JB :D

4- How about the transmission?

5- Any shops that can twin turbo/turbo the 1UZ?


Hope you guys can help.. terima kasihh bros!!!!!!!

Have you really thought this through? will it fit? s14 engine bay is pretty small and designed to fit a 4cyl. Also, 1UZ-FE makes around 180kw, the same as an s15 model sr20. 2J and rb26 make 206kw. The only engine in your list it beats is rb20.
If it would fit it would prbably require firewall mods and new engine mounts. Also would probably not mate with s14 transmission and i doubt the 1U box would fit.
Nearly impossible. But dont be discouraged. If it could work, it would certainly be unique. Or you could try VH45

If you really go 4 VH45 ....i can give you a good deal for the front clip...

1UZ-FE?? Sabah banyak2... All Land Cruiser above year 2000 model with V8 tampal behind the wagon (Petrol version) are using 1UZ-FE V8. Some good Lexus modders will put in a TRD Supercharger and (hopefully) better ECU too if you are lucky enough to fish that kinda engine out.

BTW, I can sell wings for your S14 to fly. Do you need the rudder too?

woh.. big project...
pls post pic after fix...ok...
an altezza can fit 1UZ-FE with supercharge around 550HP by TRD germany., I cant c why S14 cannot fit this monster in..

I have a frein which is very good in 1UZ. We call him "HAND OF GOD". Hehe...among ourself. He use those engine to power the boat. and he is doing another project car for my frien which is for off road. 1UZ fit in LandRover-ShortBase using 4WD !!! independent engine wiring.

If u are really serious for 1UZ, i may introdue u for him. Not much ppl can tuned the 1UZ using aftermarket ECU. but he can do it.

I have seen once in internet about the V8 S14. i can show u the picture also as i downloaded. Believe it or not, its possible !!!
