it was a flash rain storm today in daytona FL. Lost the back end on a curve and smashed in the whole rear end. This rear bumper, trunk, and fender, and chassis underneath is trash. I am thinking of parting out the car instead of insurance. Heres what i am looking at. 91 Lexus Ls 400 black...

Thanks guys, its the alty. I didnt think so at first because my car, the subs, everything was good for like a whole day. And then i guess it let go. It ended up being the classic power steering pump leak altimatly causeing the altenator to fail. thanks scott

I have a 1991 ls400. No mods, just stock. just started up my car and for some reason my coolant level light, brake light, oil level light, and voltage light are all on. The car starts up and runs fine but the lights stay on. any ideas? thanks scott

My name is always underdog51 on all the forums.

I am fairly active on the mr2oc. I have mainly been a club 4ag guy though. I am in Palm Coast FL. I have kind of run out of room and money. I found 1uzfe's in jacksonville for $500 though! I just need to get up there. If the v8 insn't going to work, i am deffenetly doing the v6. Those two...

I fabbed up the stock s12 from the GZE to the throttle bodies. The only bolt on part was the bottom supercharger mount with the tensioner pulley. Mine is in a lotus so i had to do alot of extras to get it to fit, reroute waterpump line, flip the altenater around and mount it facing the engine...

Thanks guys for all the responses. I took a look at that thread and it sucks it can't be a bolt up thing. what makes the GM tranny work? I love this engine and all toyotas. I got an mr2 that needs somthing for power. I have a bunch of little projects, so this one can take some time...

has anybody tried mating the 1uz up to a FWD tranny? I own a ls 400 and i have an 87 MR2 that has no engine. I know tons of fabrications is going to be required, i have a Lotus Seven with 20v 4age supercharged power. I was just curiouse if anybody has tried it yet and what transmissions they...

Anybody know anybody that has put a fwd tranny on a 1uzfe? I want to put one in my mr2, anybody think the v6tranny would work? thanks scott

How do i pull engine codes on my 91 ls400? thanks scott

I have been using the Megasquirt ECU for my 20v 4AGE in my lotus seven. Have you any experience with it? I love it and i am thinking of putting one on my 1uzfe. Fully programmable system for under $350. scott

I have a 91 Ls400. My transmission makes a really lound wining sound when it is cold. after about 5 minutes of driving it goes away. Or it will sometimes make the noise when i put it in reverse. I dopped the tranny pan and replaced the filter, (i thought it was a clogged filter). But it...

Sounds like oil dripping from your valve cover down onto the manifold to me. Oil puts off a very different smell and type of smoke then water. water would be putting off steam. scott

This is my first post on the forum. I own several toyotas and my lexus ls400. I can't find any manuals or anything for my car. I looked at the one posted here but it is for a 90' and appears to have different electronics. I am trying to figure out how to pull codes out of my engine. I have...
