Bearcub70 Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 I was told that some Camary parts would fit 0n the lexus and work fine. They are also cheaper than the lexus parts. Which parts fit and what car would I need to know that fits the 95 ES 300 . Pretty much for general maintenance. Brakes, sensors, and so on.
vcv10guy Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 The FAQ will answer all of your questions like SK said, but to give you a quicky answer practically all engine related parts are interchangable with the ES and some other non-engine parts too. BTW it's CAMRY, not camary... I still don't know how people get the extra "a" in the name.
gbhrps Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 Four months ago I bought all new rotors and brake pads from the local Toyota Dealer for a 97 Camry, took them home and put them on my wife's 97 Lexus ES300. They fit perfectly and work just like new. I think that you'll find there are a great many parts interchangeable between the 2 models.

Bearcub70 Posted January 20, 2005 Author Posted January 20, 2005 Thanks for the advice everyone on this I will look for the FAQ on this topic. Sorry for my spelling on Camry I didnt read it before I sent the topic out. I'm new on the website I havent seen the FAQ sections I will keep looking.
Bearcub70 Posted January 20, 2005 Author Posted January 20, 2005 read the FAQ ← I typed alot of different ways in what I was looking for they came up with no results. When do have to replace you Catalytic converter I'm 147000 does it need it yet?
khhoang Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 read the FAQ ← Where are the FAQ's???? ← i believe each subforums has a pinned FAQ thread at the top, i.e. Lexus ES250/ ES300 / ES330 Forums Subforums

Any links you can post? Sorry for a dumb question. Just in 2.9 years, I never found them. All I see is "Lexus Detailing Forum, Lexus Owners Club Merchandise, Gold Member Forums

Like what khhoang said, in the ES forum under "pinned topics" there should a FAQ link. It provides basic and background info on the ES. One last thing... Welcome to the club! :)
