  1. Nice piece of info
  2. Wow we have something in common. This is my first Lexus I joined the club 2 days ago and I have a ES300 '02. I have never had a ride so smooth. You mentioned most of the features except the air conditioner/freshner that keeps the air clean (that's what the manual has listed I don't know how to use it) alarm\panic button, climate control and seat warmers. :) Also does anyone here know where I can buy a naviagation kit for my lexus and get it installed? That is the one option I am missing. I have factory nav systems if you are interested.
  3. 1k RPM is high to begin with, I beleive the normal idle is around 550 RPM.
  4. Wait, hold up a second....... The 2JZGE can't pull a 1000 hp on stock internals. That's just crazy. 400 to 450 is about the max. There are 2JZ's pulling over a 1000 hp, but they have custom forged bottom ends and drivetrains. The Supra's 2JZGTE's come with forged internals and can hold up to about 500 hp. Although I've seen a few go to 600hp. I don't think they lasted very long though. The 2JZ is a great platform to build from. Alot of the issues and blueprints have already been done, so it's fairly easy to get to whatever hp goal you have except for the archilles heal, the weak transmissions. Even with a full race built trans done by Level 10, (upgraded sprags and clutch packs, valvebody, line pressure boost, heat treated planetaries and sunshell etc. etc.) the transmission can only hold about 400-500 hp. So you have to go with the Getrag V160/V161 which is big bucks or go with something else altogether and hope it all comes together ok. Smooth is on top of this all the way ;) He knows these cars insideout and upsidedown, Afterall he is our resident gearhead.....

  12. When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe Thomas Jefferson The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. Thomas Jefferson It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world. Thomas Jefferson I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. Thomas Jefferson My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government. Thomas Jefferson No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. Thomas Jefferson The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. Thomas Jefferson The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. Thomas Jefferson And remember this famous quote... From the year 1802 ? Banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.

  14. My guess is that you still need a nav screen, Correct ? I have a solution/fix for you if interested.
  15. Nc, I just arrived back home from that area (Door County) I spent 5 days on the lake, I was sailing with a Wisconsin State Senator on his 42 footer. Gotta love that lake. I stopped in the "Factory" And all is going as planned ;) Been on the lake at all ?
  16. I will look to see if I have a replacement screen for your RX ;) I have a fix for your cracked nav screen, If interested please em/pm me or leave your email, I can not message you yet.
  17. Hey Nc, Thirsty ?
