As you may already know, here at THOR we are pretty big fans of the Lexus 1UZFE V8. You may have seen in the past our MK4 Supra V8 demo car.
The fact that Lexus' superb range of V8 have some serious grunt - and potential - is undisputed. Problem is, despite a plethora of the high-torque, low drama lumps now becoming available at seriously realistic prices, they nearly all have one problem in common. They are nearly always fixed to an automatic box!
Luckily, we have the perfect solution to this problem in the shape of our latest adapter package, allowing a range of manual options.
Our beautifully made kit contains everything needed to fit a wide range of Lexus V8 (1UZ-FE) engines to the oft-proven and ultra-tough range of Toyota (R154) manual transmissions. This means an instant glob of power and torque for an extremely realistic outlay. This robust powertrain can then be fitted into a wide array of vehicles.
This opens the door for any tuner or car builder looking for a modern-day V8 equivalent. Offering far greater reliability, lighter weight and even more tuning potential than traditional V8 routes, The Lexus engines also boast superb refinement and surprisingly high fuel economy.
This includes a clutch kit which can handle significantly more torque than stock, offering plenty of room for improvement at a later stage. The kit is suitable for engines from any of the following applications.
- 1UZ-FE
- 2UZ-FE
- 3UZ-FE
- LS400, LS430
- SC400, SC430
- 4.0lt, 4.3lt and 4.7lt V8 Toyota Engines.
We can also offer solutions to fit the 'W' series transmissions and Tremec boxes. Whatever Engine and box combination you're thinking of fitting and whichever car your want to fit them to, get in touch with our team at THOR.
