goes2fast Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Well I'm not a fan of lexus' in general. Is it because its turbo is invisible? Stock doesn't have a turbo, mine has an inport twin turbo Supra engine. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Lexus a coupe? If its the one I'm thinking of its one of the few body styles of Lexus I actually like. Quote Link to comment

rapidrick Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 cool build... any update on this? Quote Link to comment
SublimeDatsun610 Posted July 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Well the latest is I plan on going with a mighty demon blow through 4 barrel carburetor no more fuel injection to keep things simple and cheaper. I will post some pictures soon of some changes. I had to disassemble the turbo and re-clock it to get the outlet in a more favorable position. I will need to secure the wastegate and add a BOV. the turbo piping nightmare that I've been living is finally gone with this setup now I need to drop 700 bucks for a carb. 1 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 I was going to say the cheap route, with a demon carb? It's looking good though, glad to see this thing is still progressing! 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 My 340 Swinger was advertised as 3,000 pounds and 300hp for $3,000. The Demon can't be much different. Take that heavy 340, and replace the 8.3/4 with the six cylinder 7 3/4 rear end and put drum brakes and smaller sway bar and you have a 2,700 pound car. Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Demon is the brand of carburetor Mike, but yes a demon is just a fancy duster. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 LOL the Dodge Demon was a Dodge Dart front and a Duster rear. I meant Duster. 1 Quote Link to comment

SublimeDatsun610 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 @q-tip the fuel management and harness was going to set me back at or over $2000. I can go with the crane ignition system and the demon carburetorfor less than $1200 plus I don't have to deal with any tuning by way of laptop just jetting based off of exhaust temperatures.
