- The Cartune Company (2003) Ltd in New Zealand does 1uz and 3uz conversions / parts and wiring. We have been working on UZ Toyota V8 engines since 2004 when we did our own Hiace van to transport dirtbikes around NZ. Since then we have swapped to doing mainly just Lexus V8 work from a family owned farm hidden away in our paradise , surrounded by the NZ native bush. We sell parts and simple to follow wiring instructions for the 1uzfe engines. For enquiries email info@thecartunecompany.co.nz Take Care. Kelvin
Wish I had that hiace in Fiji..no one would even dare to get close not even the land cruiser 200series..best conversion ever
Holy crap, Kelvin! You're utterly amazing!
1) I didn't realize that the Hi-Aces had the engine under the cockpit like the old Estima vans did. That must be a nightmare to work on, because it's so cramped! Major respect to you!
2) When you took off the upper intake manifold and I saw that cold start injector, my heart skipped a beat. See, when I took my plenum off, I ended up destroying the cold start injector's fuel hose. (Stupid noob move.) Lexus said 2 things that sank my heart: a) "discontinued"; b) $166. In the end, I found a local hose and fitting shop that was able to custom make me a reproduction for a paltry $10, but before that happened, I had nightmares of having to discard my engine because of a stupid hose. Haha.
Yeah...I live in Canada, so I definitely cannot delete my cold start injector.
I'm learning so much, Kelvin. You're a rockstar.
I have footage of a complete hiace conversion but I dont know if I will get time to edit it unfortunately. Cheers Kelvin
@@CartuneNZ I'll be here waiting and cheering for you, Kelvin!
@@CartuneNZ hi Kevin. We'd edit it in our brains, just share the video of the hiace conversations here pls.
@@dxta7360 there's already one up. Use the search function to find it. And we have two more booked in soon for more footage
Good day Mate,
Hello Paul. Hope everything is well with you.
Kelvin, these series of meet the car and the owner are great. Can you revisit the hotrod when the owner gets it on the road?
And the Datsun 510..
Hello Josh. That is the plan. Some bloody virus slowed me down a bit. The plan is to take my youngest daughter traveling around NZ meeting guys I deal with an doing videos. Time with my daughter , and catching up with 1uz guys. Cheers Kelvin
Your awsum bro
Mint
Sure is. Had some feedback from the dyno recently too and its going awesome over a year later. Cheers Kelvin
Love the conversion on this hiace,any idea about the mounting?
Yes, this van is mounted on a set of my own engine mounts, I've been making and suppling them for years. ruclips.net/video/yJKWBVmDR0w/видео.html
Hey kelvin, have you done a vid on the notorious low rpm hesitation that the sc400/soarer has? If not then you should.
I never realised there was a global issue with them until I did a google search just now. I have soarer / sc400 come in , I work on them, maintain them properly and get everything up to spec and they run flawlessly. Ill add it to my list as for me it really is just another day at the office and easy to fix. Cheers
I'd love to see something on this, it's something that my car does, it's not an end of world thing but it's there. Always felt that even my mate's old JZZ31 was better right off the mark. I believe it's to do with the A341's line pressure modulation solenoid.
Have you used a haltech before whats your opinion on it if so
We have haltech videos coming. I work with many ecus and find them fine. Cheers Kelvin
Any chance you know how to fab up some engine mounts and a trans adapter plate to run a 1uz in a z32 300zx with a z32 manual trans mate? Cheers
Absolutely. Making up engine mounts is quite simple. We used to have a guy here that made adaptors to the z32 box too but havent used any for a while now. For mounts I start with my universal kitset and provided I have the car its quite a straightforward jobs. Ive seen a few z32 with uz over my time.
@@CartuneNZ Im in australia mate any chance you are still able to do some mounts without access to my car?
Nice video! I think you'd enjoy my content too
Ive watched a few now. I have raced dirtbikes in my time too. We have more mud over here than you seem to have. haha. I keep looking at dirtbikes but at present have other things to focus on. Cheers Kelvin
