My brother in NZ just bought a 93 LS400 , it had a set of alloy 4 pots in the boot , when he went to fit them he found they foul on the steering arm balljoint ??? I know that the later model 95 to 2000 LS400 4 pot calipers fit straight on , so maybe these are LS430 calipers ?? I know that LS430...

I'm up for all the above plus plugs , I want to fit NGK plugs , the one's that last 100,000 K's ? Are these the iridium ones or the Platinum ones ? Also have had a look at the S.T.I site and their leads look the business , has anyone else any input on them ? I know of a couple of guys who are...

Vegemite has become illegal in America because of the Folic acid it contains , only bread and cereals are allowed to have folic acid in them now !! This is a matter of National importance , how dare they ban Vegemite , countrys have gone to war over lessor things than this !! We Australians will...

Finally finished the S/S adaptor for my Apexi filter , it went straight in first time , it's nice when it happens like that !! It's quite a bit crisper , even my wife noticed , I have no doubt I have a bit more HP , but seeing as I don't use it all the HP day to day [ it's a family car ] it;s...

Well have to say very impressed , when I removed the first one out of the box , top section is complete billet alloy , even the TEMS bracket is alloy billet !! On the very top of the strut there is a 16 mm thick rubber pad , this will reduce the NVH way more than the original set-up . Have now...

I can get a full set of titanium valves [ 32 so thats two sets ] out of a current Australian V8 Supercar Chev motor , apparently the same engine that's in the Nascar cars , just that ours are limited to 7,500 RPM while they pull 9,500 in the Nascar cars . They have done 2000 Kilometres , they...

Have spent a bit of time thinking and exploring alternatives for this problem , one thing I was not going to do was pay Aus $1006.78 for a complete arm from those Lexus thieves here in Aus !! The other was not going to pay Aus $500.00 to get one in from the States , even at half price . I came...

After seeing this I will be adapting one of those Apexi filters into my airbox , must add as a warning to anybody using anything else !! Thats one of the reasons I've never bothered with aftermarket pod type filters , sure they let more air in but the also let half of the rest of the world in as...

Does anyone know if a Supra rack [ 93 to 97 ] will go into a LS400 ? I've heard that the do and they have slightly different gearing and this gives a bit more "feel" at the wheel . Can anybody help or do I just have to get one [ 60,000 K unit is $350.00 here in Aus ] and try it , not a problem...

Supra Rack to LS400 I've heard tell that a 93 to 97 Supra rack will bolt and plug straight into a 90 LS400 ? I don't know for sure as I haven't actually seen one , the Supra rack has a slightly different gear ratio and as such gives slightly better feel at the wheel than the LS400 , this I...

Went outside this morning to find the front of my Celsior on the deck , initially thought " oh finally have a leak in one of my airbags " It turns out both sides on the front have dropped , I find it extremly unlikely that the left and right front bags developed a leak at the same time overnight...

I have been searching for a set of headers for my Celsior , with the thoughtin mind that headers will be the single biggest mod to my engine , basically stock otherwise . I have found a guy who makes V8 supercar systems over here and I can provide him with a front cut to frabricate the system on...

Cat Gutted...No more phussy !! LOL My Celsior has gone a little bit down on HP , makes a bit more exhaust noise [ not from a leak but like being stiffled type of thing ] and the economy has suffered a little bit as well . So took the left hand cat off [ and yes it was mostly blocked ] with...

Removed the wire on J1 inside the box and no more 108 limit !! Total success !! Very contented !! Let the Celsior brigade rejoice .

Seeing as I'm doing wheel bearings , upper/lower bushes and lower ball joint I wanted to fit the bigger backing plates while I had the hub out , as later on 95 model 4 piston alloy calipers would be going on . Was having trouble locating a new supplier in the States , so in desperation I rang...

I have a spare speed control box and when I opened it up hoping that it would be the same as the Soarer unit , with a J300 jumper/switch however I find that it is very similar but not the same...no J300 jumper . However it does have a J1 jumper on it that is closed , my thinking is that the only...

Does anyone know if a 95 model radius/control arm will fit in a 90 model ?? I can't seem to find a replacement arm under $300.00 but there are these awesome alloy 95 model units for $169.00....HELP....HELP...AAAARRRRRRR....going under for the third time !!

I'm currently doing front lower ball joint , bushes and wheel bearings , also intend to do the upper bushes as well , I see that the upper ball joint is a non replacable unit , I take it this means I have to replace the whole radius arm as one . I have seen those nice alloy units for a 95 to 00...

WTB: wooden aftermarket shifter for 90 LS400 , the one with the overdrive button on the side rather than on the front like the standard unit .

I have just finished talking to Nigel from Streamline Exhausts in Adelaide about LS400/Celsior headers after seeing the headers on this site . Unfortunatly he wasn't able to jig up for the set he made . However he is quite happy to do so and then do runs of 10 at a time . For all of this to even...
