Louis, I do loose a little bit of power, but I'm willing to compromise that instead of getting dirt/water into the engine.

More manne, Ek het Vrydag gou deur gery Sasolburg toe om die ander Lexus enjin te gaan haal wat Danie verkoop het as parte. Die rede hoekom hy die enjin wou ruil vir 'n 22R was omdat hy tussen 5 en 6 km/l gekry het op die Lexus. Die Lexus is nog nie gemap nie en kan heel moontlik beter gestel word. ...

Lexus 1UZFE met Spitronics management tans nog in die bakkie te ruil vir 'n 22R masjien in goeie kondisie.

Al wat ek weet is dat sy vrou met die bakkie werk toe ry en sy soek nie die V8 nie?
