welcome to the forum.......i hate to break it to you........but u start adding headers,exhaust,intake, and reprogramming your gonna get EVEN WORSE gas mileage! anytime you start modifiing stuff its gonna directly affect gas mileage! very few if any performance modifications are gonna IMPROVE gas mileage!

Steering Pretensioner Adjustment
sakataj replied to punash007's topic in 93 - 05 Lexus GS300 / GS400 / GS430
ok so.......the tool to use that is a DIY made piece with a nut (its from a honda crankshaft) that fits into the lexus pretensioner,welded onto a 1/2 socket. i did this as its a little mechanics trick for big bolts like that but also cause i couldnt find a allen or a socket big enough for that! i am having problems with the wrench though getting it to stay on the lip of the locking nutt so im gonna look in a different direction for that! so as of now i couldnt get the locking nutt loose so i will try again later! brian -
hahaha...........does drunk count? nah just kidding i just6 woke up! hope everyone has a good memorial day! brian

Problems With Radio Not Working
sakataj replied to catchme's topic in 93 - 05 Lexus GS300 / GS400 / GS430
i dunno........i would find out if they have a radio code and if they dont i would unplug the battery for about 10 mins and see if it resets the system and lets you do anything from there! just my $0.02 brian -
