Hi guys, I bought a pair of OBX-headers (i'let you know about the quality after install) + a FMX225 FLOWMONSTER 2.25" X-Pipe. The plan is to replace the headers, weld 2 triangular shaped CAT-flanges to flex-pipes, keep stock CATS, replace Y-pipe and middle resonator with the X-pipe and keep...

Thx for the tip, i'll try that, Toyota Supra should be in the list of cars in the computer. /Mike

Need a little help with wheel alignment Since i've been replacing lots of suspension details i need to do a 4-wheel alignment. I am trying to track down the specifications for a 4 wheel alignment. Does anyone have these specs? SC300/SC400 cars were never sold in Sweden and the computer...

Front lower arms - bushings replacement A little update,- I replaced the bushings in my front lower arms yesterday. Some of the old bushings were already replaced with polyurethane bushings which made the ride uncomfortable and were squeaking pretty badly(like a 1956 Cadillac) and the rest of...

Hi Steve, they are GodSpeed, but they look similar to Megan. The ride is almost the same as before, maybe it is worse for any back seat riders :-) Who cares about them? They are definitely better than the ones i had :-) I'll try and change the LCA bushings this week, tomorrow and Wednesday are...

Rear suspension Today i changed toe arms and traction bars on the rear suspension. It was one of the worst jobs ever. The rust in the inner metal sleeve had welded the bolts and it was impossible to unscrew them no matter what i tried. I started gently and politely with WD40 and wrenches, then...

A question and a little update: I am preparing for a fan delete, unfortunately i cannot complete it this weekend, 'cause i'm still missing the pulley for my LS400 fan bracket, i've been given some good advice from KC and Steve C. I'd really appreciate some pictures showing what to delete and...

Hi Steve and thank you for replying. 3. I found out the answer for no 3 myself, these hoses go to the hydraulic fan cooler. 1. I bought that bracket from Lextreme, i am waiting for a matching pulley. 5. I was thinking to keep this one replace this one with a good silicone hose and...

A few questions A few stupid questions. Although i read several build threads there are still a few things i don't understand: 1. Do i need this fan bracket if i'm going to run 2 electrical fans and delete the stock hydraulic fan? 2. What kind of hose does one use for the loop of the hydraulic...

This one is completely sealed IIRC, but i'll doublecheck. thx

Battery relocation I relocated the battery today and turned the fuse box 90 degrees CW. As promised i took a lot of pictures: 6 meters of 60mm2 copper wire This where the cable goes into the boot You need to find a suitable place for this component, make sure its not wired to the ground...

Update Hi guys, I bought the screws for the fishbracket today, they were quite expensive, 7/16" x 127mm and i manufactured 6 spacers from some junk i had in my garage, i cut them to 110mm to begin with, they'll be adjusted later when everything is in place. I got some other goodies in...

Does this one look better?

Thx Steve, much appreciated

Exhaust Hi, I just received my headers today and i have a question: Which of these 2 setups is the most efficient? Did i place the oxygen sensors and the wideband sensor correctly?

New stuff This came in the mail today: Battery terminal for the engine compartment when i relocate the battery Bushes for front control arms, just like OEM the only difference is the price, these cost 33£ from UK

The hard line that i bought is sold specifically as brake line, so i guess it must be copper coated steel. /Mike

New brake lines Today I changed my brake lines to steel braided. Mine were 21 years old, they felt spongy and there was a clear improvement after the upgrade. The rear brake lines were alright so it was no need to change them, i only changed the flexible hoses: The front lines were...

Mockup2 This is what i've got atm, i ordered some more pipes and hoses

OBD I to OBD II adapter I bought this one from China, dunno if it's any good, haven't had a chance to test it yet. I don't have any high hopes, however the spec. was: Toyota OBD I to OBD II adapter. For a few bucks i reckoned it was worth a try. /mike
