The boys at motorFIX have recently hit up YZ Circuit where their awesome 1UZ-powered Corolla headed out for a little test session.

There's nothing like the sound of a quad cam V8 with eight throttles to get you going on a Tuesday.

Huh?but wait.why doesn't he rock an LS?.....oh wait he has style....all you jokers rocking LS swaps must feel really stupid after hearing that ITB UZ....cuz u know it sounds a thousand times better than a stupid ass pushrod inblock cam engine...

It just occurred to me that I did have a 1UZ once... in a '90 LS400. I was too busy turning a profit on the car to think about putting the engine in a KE70 (or an MX-5) though. Oh well, at least I know where I can find a cheap source for quad-can V8s now.

Yeeeah no SG that easily beats the buzz of any 4cyl. Did you actually watch the video? its like honey bees against the roar of a bull...and those pushrods still have more torque/ power in general over the 1uz tho it is ne of my favorit engines. The Aussies have been using it in everything from powerboats to other serious racers I shouldn't be suprised it took America's lesser informed hipster tuning generation to get hip to it.
