Anyone know where to find the price of this piece? I know its a rare part...so price may be up there.
I already checked the TOMS japan site, but could not find that part.

Just buys some tips and have it welded on...that's what I did. The tips I got looked exactly like L-Tuned tips.

Hello,
I was doing a tire rotation on my 2002 GS300 (160K miles) and noticed that rear wheels have vertical play in them (grabbing the wheel on top and bottom and shaking it). After conducting further investigation I discovered that the play is generated by rear axle carrier bushings (on both wheels) responsible for camber adjustment (please see picture). I have looked all over the net but couldn’t find a replacement kit for these bushings the only once that I could find were for rear axle carrier trailing arm I believe. This camber adjustment bushing is not like the other once from what I can tell it has a more complex design from what it looks like involving dual shafts which are located one inside another. Anyway I was wondering if anyone can advice me on what to do as far as changing these and eliminating vertical play in my rear wheels (buying an axle carrier is my last option). THNAKS!

Anybody know of an aftermarket grille for the ISF? I'd like to lose the "L" - leaving the rest intact.
Just get the Carson grill...you can leave out the "L" emblem.

Are those HIDs in the fogs?

Heres my 2004 Lexus I just got a couple of months ago, and today I got some 20's for it. Also put on some drilled rotors and painted my calipers all by myself thanks to some helpful people on this site. Tell me what you guys think.
Very Stealthy looking...but it needs a drop!!

Any Hawaii peeps in here?

Very nice job.
Btw....what temp did you set the oven for?

Im test fitting this 3-piece now...gotta patch the OEM holes first. :D
-
Id just sand it down with 2000 grit...and use rubbing compound....finish with plastix finisher.

replace DRL bulb with 9005 LEDs....but you will lose highbeam (if you need it).

Very interesting....probably works better on older vehicles. For newer vehicles, we have the OBDII ECU to regulate the intake. No matter how much HHO if feed into the intake...the OBDII will self correct. I think somehow....someone needs to figure out how to "trick" or re-map the OBDII so that newer vehicles can benefit more on this concept.

Yes....another 2GS if the price was right....probably a GS430.

Check your rotors....do they look scratched by the calipers? If so...time to change both pad and rotors ASAP!! I upgraded mines to drilled rotors and PBX ceramic pads....clean...not much brake dust....but the drilled rotors do make noise (like a fan turbine) at lower speeds when the window is down.

That one looks like the sport design style. I prefer any 3-piece style trunk lip spoiler.

I'd say dead weight unless your driving like you're on a racetrack. The kids seem to love them. They pair well with the 99% black tint and the fake HID headlights.
I currently running the Carson front STB...(previously owned the RMM and DSR ones)....I feel the difference when I rip the turns (no braking):D in my neighborhood. Front end is very tight...very little body frame flex...of course I got the TOMS front and rear LCB, TOMS 6-links, and TSA rear STB too. ;)

Hi ,
I have 2000 GS 300 and trying to replace my OEM wheels to Sport Max 941 (17X07 5X100/5X4.5 GM ST) and with Hankook H405 (TIRE 225-50-17 HR) Low profiles. Actaully My whell size is 16" is it ok to replace with 17" or 18" ? will it cause any obstruction while turning the wheels?
No problems with the 17s....however, you may consider adding spacers to push the wheels out a bit....so its a near flush to the fenders.
-
Nope...i dont think so....I would check regularly if the pads are getting thin....and the calipers is nearing the rotors.
-
If none of the tabs are broken....then re-install in steps. Lock in the top first...then push in the bottom....or was that bottom first...then push in the top? I forget which has the tabs.
