So yea, wanted to see what everyone is doing for mods on the drivers header when doing 1UZ swap. I tried messing with the OE header and found for me that it was easier to use a manifold from a 2UZ out of a Sequoia. Chopped it off at the elbow, the flange faces the wrong direction and hits the firewall. I extended it with some material I had sitting around, approx 1.5" steel tubing. Then used an off the shelf exhaust reducer and welded it onto the end. Figured I'd post this up being that there is not a whole lot of info on the topic, that I could find anyways... The passengers side was modded the same way, but with the OEM Lexus manifold.

I am selling my Hydraulic Handbrake with a Wilwood 3/4 Master Cylinder. I am asking 90USD for both but im not sure on shipping yet. Im sure we can work something out. Some companies sell this same set up for about 210usd not including shipping. Not on here all the time so best bet is an email or text. Text me at 805-421-8297 Email me at chrischav3z@yahoo.com

So for the past year my main and only project has been my MK3 supra, fuck you if you dont like them I dont care. Its a yota and I love it. But I've finally scratching the itch to do a swap in my MX83. It only has 96,000 original miles and its super clean. I want to make it a nice cruiser. My grandmother's SC400 was always pretty kick ass to me, and I love the uz series motors and between quantum auto and Excessive manufacturing, the swap seems pretty easy I was just curious as to what I will need. I have already picked up a nice W58. I didnt want the R154 because they are generally more expensive and a less smooth shifting tranny. I know I will need a complete 1uz to W58 bellhousing adapter, clutch kit an flywheel which quantum auto sells. I will need to find a decent 1uz with ECU and wiring harness. Motor mount can be purchased at Excessive manufacturing. Just wasn't sure if anybody else here has done the swap and knows more in depth info other than the obvious and what I already know. It will be lowered on meghan coilovers with 19'' Konig afterburners. Probably some stoptech drilled and slotted rotors. Other than that I will just be doing basic cosmetic touch ups and fixes to make the car show worthy. Thanks for the help guys!
