  1. It was http://cureline.net/lex/ I've found it on the internet wayback machine and I'll be downloading it so that I can recreate it soon. :)
  2. Sorry, just didn't think there was parts available to get the LS400 auto to handle big torque. I have dealt with the 4L80E with high HP/High TQ (over 1000 HP) and had no problems with it what so ever. I saw some articles about all the high HP Supra's running power glides or turbo 400's and now 4L80's so I figured it's an easy swap. With mass experience with my Impala and 396 stroker/250 shot I ate up 4L60E trannies like they were candy so I started messing with the 4L80E's.
  3. I am looking for a fun project. I saw an article in Project Car magazine about the skyline motor in a M30 coupe. So I moved down the path of the skyine motor in a Q45. Then I found that Infiniti seems to be a bad mod road to go down for wheels/tires/suspension etc. I then followed the logic that if a skyline (nissan) straight 6 turbo in a luxury sedan would work why not a Supra (toyota) straight 6 turbo in an LS400 or LS430? I've been looking on lexextreme etc but the build parts are scarce for the V8 motors and it seems everyone is engineering their own way, however the 2JZ-GTE would allow me to bolt up a 4L80E tranny make tons of power and due to it's higher RPM output allow it to get decent traction on the street. Anybody done this swap or know of a site about it? I'm researching well ahead of my project but thought it could be some fun! It's either going to be this a hyabusa motored turbo reverse trike!!! (each having merit in their own right) :)
