1uz-fe v8 Maverick (aka mavlex)

Very interesting and unique having an unusual engine under the hood. That thing sounds nice!
One of my first 4x4 experiences was in a convoy with a GQ that had a Holden V6 Ecotec ( VS / VT ) engine under the hood. I used to own a VS so the sound was familiar... But not until the very end when he was airing up people looked under and there it was... lol

Na mate haven't put the charger on yet. Having space issues whitg the shear size of the m90 and don't wanna alter the bonnet for clearance. Now thinking I'll go a vortech or a single turbo. As for weight the troll isn't that much heavier than a lux I had one with a 253 once and it was heavier than my troll. I'm not too stressed about fuel but hopefully if I go turbo as daily drive it won't be too bad. As long as I can stay off boost for a bit Lol.

Damn mate after watching that vid I had to change my jocks lol. That's very nice mate. Wanna do another GQ conversion? lol

[warner01]

lol cheers sharky. no way am i doing another v8 conversion there painful. but one day i would like to slot a viper v10 into a gu. money proves to be the biggest stop in that project. id be happy to offer any advice or share info if anyone wants it though. it is cool driving a v8 4wd that revs to 6300.

I'm hoping down the track to repower it with either a TD or a V8
