    797,000 km's on a 1996 LS400

    Anyone know when the major overhaul is recommended? I would have thought 500,000.

    797,000 km's on a 1996 LS400

    Cool. Anyone know if this would be VVTi? Or is it just the simple 1UZ with the plastic cover? Similar to 1995+ SC400? Wow... I thought mine was high k's and that has exactly triple what mine does.

    What a bargain ???

    Yes, I wonder if he would let it go at that price. Perhaps I shall ask him. I think he posts on here too. Under the same username. Someone should tell him that for a few hundred CRS make a sump flange. Its not the best, but worth a try. I heavily modified mine myself. Not the best looking, but...

    Hi from NZ / Yet another 1U ID plz

    I notice it moves along like the stock markets, has its ups and downs.:D But I love it here. I would grab the one at the back, sounds newer, sounds like it has the bigger injectors, and like you said, as long as you get the matched loom/parts it wont be that hard.

    What a bargain ???

    He wanted 99c last week, but 100k for delivery. So he has come down roughly $2. Which I think is pretty reasonable, plus he will deliver for free :P I wonder if you could buy an LFA for that money... mmm V10

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    Well, injectors changed in 45 mins, driving to driving. Very cool, and easy enough to do.

    what runing temp?

    From memory the factory fans come in at 92 Celsius, or thereabouts. Its very high, I bring mine on in the 80s. Prefer it to run cooler.

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    With the stock ECU I dont think a wide band or other sensor would be any help. Mine is a 4 wire oxygen sensor. Anyways, it was just a test. Will drop stock 251cc back in and then get the turbo running sweet on them, while I research what ECU and tuner to use. Maybe I should look to piggy back...

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    I must look a bit of a n00b here, but in the higher revs it goes okay. Anyways, I was wondering if I got some Ethanol (E85 for example) and ran that, it might go alright, because, while it is a higher fuel volume, its probably on par with high octane normal fuel. Or am I just tuggin it. Its...

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    I am putting a turbo on next weekend. Been planning it for months, but didnt want to do it all on one weekend, so just gradually doing it all. Standalone management to come soon too.

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    Figured it would run rich as..... LOL... Will try a reset, and swap my 02 sensors out, if that doesnt work then I will just swap back to the 251cc injectors until I go aftermarket ECU. So there is no way a stock computer with a stock motor can handle 315cc injectors?

    Just installed 315cc injectors, stock ECU, now not running right

    Underpowered, rough as at idle, and wont accelerate, may also have a knock.. All brand new injectors, all plug and play. I just remembered that I did not disconnect the battery when I did the installation, but I dont think that would necessarily make it idle funny, perhaps I should...

    1000 horsepower lexus

    Lots of gay stuff, I coulda save $30k off that and been faster and lighter... No flashy carbon, no flashy paints, no stereo. (Assuiming its $100k on the car, not the motor alone) Dunno why, but loved it under the bonnet, hated the stereo. If he street drives it regularly, then that is pretty...
