i might end up waiting on this one than till next year if the car still runs, i have to get some engine mounts too.

i was looking at these ebay lowering springs, anyone know if they are any good? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TANABE-DF210-LOWERING-SPRINGS-90-92-93-94-LEXUS-LS400-/120587282202?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c138fe71a

I found mine on craigslist.org dont know where you are, but there is one in Providence, he has a car with 5 chrome wheels, he might swap you for his spare, since it would be a spare for him also... dont cost nothing to ask.. 95-97 are the same i would try www.kijiji.com its a big thing in my area, no one uses craigs or the bargain finder anymore. hey do you guy think i should just tint the whole tailights?, i just did over the amber.

i need a new one is as far as i know, just wondering if it is the same as the abs/traction control pump, also where is the accumulator located and how do you change it? thanks.

cool, i only payed $375 for the rims and tires, hankook tires with about 80% left.

in Alberta the roads are crap and yea winters are harsh, I didn't want large rims because I wanted to keep some of the ride quality and slow down the car, I changed my mind and got 17's. They are eagle alloys but I'm refinishing them with gritty polish as they don't shine like they are suppose too( my dad has this kit). Plus I wanted to keep it classy instead of large 19 inch gangsta rims. I have a VIP chrome grill coming in the mail aswell, and if your wondering about the blacked out over the amber tailights and front signals it was VHT nightshades, however most people dont apply correctly and it could look trashy.

why whats wrong with them? is it the rims themselves or they just dont suit the car?

picked them up for cheap do they suit the car?, eagle alloys,i tried polishing them but they are pretty pitted, they need to be deep polished with a grit. im aware i need to repaint the bumpers and finish my back window tint.

so if i had a set of 17 inch rims, what is the absolute largest tire i can go with? i was thinking 235/45/r17? is 45 too much sidewall? i would be happy with 225 width as well but 235 would be better.

I painted the amber on the oem taillights are with VHT nightshades as it looked dated, i just taped off the rest, much cheaper. My friends said not to tint the whole taillight as it would look trashy ( its the sandstone/ gold color)

well i just picked up the retrofit adapter, doesnt look like its going to work, the one adapter that does fit doesnt have a pin to open the other valve pin in the air conditioner line. Not positive though cant know until my grandparents come again, which could be a few weeks. Meanwhile i have to open the windows which i hate doing because of all the dust, than that means i have to clean it twice a week :(.

damn! how did you do that??? awesome, yea i think the gs300 rims look sharp on the car. Does anyone know how wide the gs300 tires are? i for sure want wider than 205 which is my ls400 stock. Im assuming they are 235 as its an 8" rim.

yea the second set looks like only a dodge viper could pull those off, so anyone know how the first set would look, i mean they are only 17"

not sure my grandpa has a kit but he has r12 gas, i went to toyota and for 20 bucks they have the retrofit adapter, from r12 to r134 or whatever so i hope it works when my grandpa brings it next time.

i have a link from kijiji, some guy is selling what i think to be ls430 rims, i will ask him to lower as a set of two tires is $500. http://edmonton.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-auto-parts-tires-tires-rims-LEXUS-TOYOTA-RIMS-W0QQAdIdZ212205081 how would these look do you guys think, i was looking more at 18 inch instead. also how bad would these look on the car http://edmonton.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-auto-parts-tires-tires-rims-fs-17-rims-with-tires-W0QQAdIdZ204151184#

yea im about 5 6" so im short, your having problems finding a good setting too? Maybe give us a photo from the side of your seat raised to the maximum height. My barely 5 foot tall wife drove our 90 LS many times over the 13 1/2 years we had it and she seemed to find a comfortable position where she could easily see out. The 95-up LS has a noticably higher potential seating position than the early LS. yea ill take a pic

Mine is RHD so I would assume that your's is located on the passenger side at the rear of the engine compartment,there is an L shaped black plastic cover over the pump motor/accumulator to remove simply pull it upwards. will brake fluid leak out? anything i should know? Im pretty sure its the accumulator as my brake fluid reservoir is just under the max fill line.

not sure about the codes, but i had a hell of a time changing the plugs in my 92, just keep pulling and turning, i thought i broke a wire at one point but hooked it up to my multimeter and was fine. Lol the job took me three hours and !Removed! knuckles, my 05 neon takes like half an hour to change the plugs.

sorry i mean R12...just woke up its exam week, yes i was at parts source and all they sold was the same adapter that came with my kit, i need one slightly smaller or possible one is metric and the other imperial, walmart you say?

so i ran the daig mode and nothing came up, so i need to refill the r14, my grandpa brought a kit over to refill it but the refilling nozzle that screws onto the line does not fit, i went to parts source and idiots working there didnt have anything. Called toyota and they couldnt think of anything and told me to call service, anyone know what to do?

yea im about 5 6" so im short, your having problems finding a good setting too?

could also be a fuse, i bet there are two different fuses for the night and day dimmer.

hmmm ill take a look but it does work, it will lower and raise it just seems like it should be able to raise more, it could just be that im weird, i dunno.

thanks man, ill check my fluid levels as i have not seen any brake fluid leak. I can get a new accumulator does anyone know where its located and how to replace it.

yea i did, if i tilt it back more than it is, its more comfortable but than i cannot see as much as i would like too, i often find myself adjusting every day its really annoying. THis is why im thinking the front portion of the seat needs to come up more and maybe is stripping as this has happend on the recline function where it would twist the back half of the seat, but i fixed that already.
