I don't know if this has been discussed before but maybe have sub-categories for the buy & sell section. It would make it a lot easier to look for something. Just a suggestion

I have for sale a used custom wrapped 2JZ-GTE Plug/Timing Belt Cover. This is wrapped in REAL carbon fiber not a cheap sticker and is in excellent condition. This will only fit the first gen 2JZ-GTE obviously not fit the VVTi or non turbo models.
Asking $250 USD plus shipping
yes its a common problem on the first gen GS's unfortunately lexus does not sell the needles seperately. they are really expensive from the dealer and when buying them used who knows how long they will last. as for the job it self its really easy
awsome car..that car has the digital read outs (mph, rpm, gas ect) thats what i saw in Japan in this guys soarer..
any thing big -planned for the car?
He said what he was gonna do with the car :P
You lucky *BLEEP*!! I've seen your skyline before in pictures on another site unless it was another one that was midnight purple with te37's in Germany LOL you cars look great
when you take the cover off. On the black back housing you will notice a groove where the clear part fits into. you fill that area back up before putting the cover back. it is possible to clean off if you spill a little but its very gooy and will need some good elbow grease to get off.. but can be done. but if you get it on your clothes.... well...they're done
Yes I am 100% positive. Now after you take the cover off. You will notice that there is 2 clips on the top of the reflector on and 2 on the bottom or 1 (I cant remember) the reflector inside the USDM you might have to crack the reflector part into 2 pieces in order to get it out. but that shouldn't be a problem if you dont want them anyways.
If you are converting to the JDM headlights please note that the bulb and socket that goes inside the housing for the turn signal are different. If you buy JDM ones make sure it at least come with the socket. The wiring you can just modify.
Now on the USDM ones between the turn signal and the low beam there is a narrow section that looks light it should illuminate in some way but no. its just a useless hallow section of the headlight to fool everyone (if you look on the back of that section you will notice there is no hole in the rear for a bulb). However on the JDM one that part of the headlight actually lights up. So if you buy JDM lights make sure it Also come with this socket if you plan to use it.
PS: wear latex gloves. You're gonna get a sh!tload of black weather sealant on your fongers and clothes from removing the covers and that !Removed! is damn near impossible to get off.
Getting the cover off is the hardest part. Once thats off you'll see exactly what i mean and the rest should be a breeze. Make sure to buy some of that black weather sealant when you put the housing back together. Any air hold leaks will cause condensation inside the housing and will be all foggy.
However if this whole time u were talking about complete clear lens covers like these. These are custom modified factory ones and i have no clue how its done
there are tons a guys who want to trade their JDM lights for USDM ones here in Canada. I'm sure you will find a few guys in the WTB section. if not there then maybe Club Lexus.
Here in Canada a lot of importers are bringing in Aristos but in order to legalize them they have to have the USDM headlights because they are DOT approved.
Oh and FYI both USDM and JDM headlights you have heat the edge and take the lens cover off. Once that is done you car remove the orange relector on the USDM. And if you have the JDM ones once you take the cover off you will notice there is a small orange housing around the bulb. You can take that off too once the lens cover has been removed.
When using a heat gun to melt the glue be very careful no to leave it there too long also dont try to pry off parts that are not heats or you will be looking for a new set of lights.
