Oh, my bad, missed out the part in your post where you said you replaced both coils. In any case, you could have got some weird short or pinched fuel line from the accident, or maybe there was a connector/sensor that was on its last breath and the accident shook it up. That wont be easy to...

In the recent couple of weeks my 01 GS430 developed a problem starting up. I need to crank it for a long time before it finally fires up, and sometimes it will only fire up on the second try. After it starts, it seems to lag a before reaching around 2500 RPMs, and then takes off hard. Also...

Sounds more like your ignition is bust. Usually one of the ignition coils die, and then the car will run on four cylinders, and run like crap. Unplug the coils one by one, see if it runs on one of them, and replace the other one. Also, see if your cats are glowing red, if so thats...

Thanks everyone. I ordered a set of Tokiko HP shocks. My car is a 1994 LS400, currently with around 120-130k miles. I'm planning to replace the shocks only. I will be reusing stock mounts, springs, bumpers etc. What are the chances that my springs are sagged?

I need to replace the rear original shocks on my 94 LS400, and dealer is looking for $130 per shock. I looked on aftermarket, and the only other ones I could find were Tokiko and KYB, and they run about $80 each. I would ideally prefer Bilstein or Koni, but they dont seem to be available for...

These are great prices! Guys, lets get a group buy going so we can save on shipping!

I want to replace the stock subwoofer in my 94 LS400, without replacing the amp or anything else. I understand it is a 2ohm 40 watt 8" woofer, and it is difficult to find anything with the same ratings. The closest I could find on crutchfield is a Kicker with dual 4ohm coils (i understand if...

I need to run wires directly from the battery to the passenger side in my 94 LS400. I need that for the 120AC converter to run my laptop. I'm planning to mount it on the passenger side footwell panel, but I have no idea how to get the wires into the cabin. Of course I will use a fuse as well, I...

Well, the first generation 90-94 LS400 is the most popular model. If someone donors the factory sway bars for them to make beefier ones, they can expect more than 5 sets to be ordered. I'd say if they setup a group buy here and on clublexus, and the price is reasonable, they can expect a lot of...

Few more questions. With the adaptronic, is it able to control EGR valve and IAC valve?

Since they are so close to you, would you be able to ask them if they could perhaps set up a group buy for US customers on this board as well as clublexus/lexus owners club? Usually sway bars are the most cost effective handling improvement, and they should be able to sell a lot of them in the US.

This is good information!!! I just briefly read through the article, and it seems like I will be able to defeat any error codes, and can get rid of the stock MAF. And yes, I'd like to keep the stock ECU to control my transmission. I will review the tech article in full detail before I make up...

I'm thinking Adaptronics too... But I understand it only does semi-sequental injection and ignition on 8 cylinder? I'm not sure what the disadvantage of this would be. Also, is my cluster going to look like a Christmas tree with all the warning lights? And whats going to control the...

Unfortunately I dont know anyone who can swap ECUs with me. My MAF is new, or rather was new in 2007 when I purchased it. Took a big plunge and no improvement was made. The ECU seems to be able to put out codes. If I disconnect anything (maf, ECT, O2) it will throw a CEL, and turn off TRAC...

Well guys like I was saying, I've replaced everything that has to do with A/F, but the ECU. I believe for some reason the fuel trim functions of the ECU are leaning the mixture out. I will test it and know for sure. As far as why its doing it, I have no clue. The only other thing that has to...

Guy, I will try to make this one as short as possible, so bare with me. If anyone remembers my old posts, you will know that I own a 1994 LS400 since 2006, and all this time it's been awfuly low on power. It takes off like a 3 cylinder Geo Metro, pings around 2500-3000rpms, and sounds trashy...

Are they able to get these to the US? I'm defenately interested in a set if the price is reasonable.

Ebay of course.

Yep, its a 94 LS. And no, I had to cut the old plugs from the old seats and splice them to the new seats. Wasnt that difficult really, I had all the wire diagrams. Also had to make some custom brackets to hold the seats in, but really nothing hard. If I knew it was going to be so (relatively)...

These came out of an 01 LS430, swapped them into my 94. Can't be happier!
