  1. i agree........thats too much for a 1999 with over 100k just shop around and be patient you'll find one more suited for you!
  2. oh i didnt know he did that with his daughter, thats desperately sad. especially with all the camera crwes they have y couldnt he use them to follow her? i still say try lojack man
  3. yeah i posted this thread ALMOST a week ago.........tomorrow it wil be a week! i was trying to get the car done this weekend or early this week thats y im being impatient!
  4. u have 6 plugs in the v6 u have! i dunno thier locations as i would have to look at the motor i have a v8 so im not sure about your spark plug locations
  5. whose hogan and man apparantally he got some trust issues with his daughter! the lojack can cutt everything is monitored 24hrs a day 7days a week! they kinda costly but i hear u get a great insurance discount for them! maybe the trade off is worth it! hope that helps
  6. god im so jealous thats the color of gs i wanted! that blue looks soooooooo good welcome to the club! also nice 1 day in and already gettiunbg along with everyone j/k.......take people with a grain of salt on here.....some seem to have thier heads WAY up thier !Removed!! anyways hope u get battery thing figured out, i just chabnged my battery over to a yellow top optima and had NO problems
  7. yeah i had that come on and i looked at the taillights and was like man i checked all these.....trust me check again u missed one........i also had one on my 3rd brake light come on,go off,come on, etc! look on the rounded parts of the taillights where it curves towards the side of the car....there are some small lights right there! these are the ones i missed! you def missed a bulb just like i did and just like i thought i really couldnt tell i was missing one! if not maybe you got a short but try that 1st man
  8. yeah they not cheap lgs300 my driver side starting to go...........i think this acution might be over but email they guy and see if he still has them and wants to make a deal or something! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...224580&rd=1 or try sewell lexus's webpage they normally hook us up!
  9. the real ? alex is he just wanting it to keep tabs on his wife or the cars.......cause who puts a gps tracker on a 2004 honda accord? wouldnt think the cost/benefits would be worth it! insurance is cheap and will replace that one easily!
  10. yeah but i live in Memphis..........people don't pay their bills and child support JUST so they can have a new lexus or mercedes sitting on 26"s so no1 here probably cares......i do though. wish i knew all the tips......i even went to a class lexus has for a new owners (3rd sat every month here) and i still didnt learn much cause it mainly aimed at new owners
  11. lojack is the best one i know of........... try this website http://www.lojack.com/car/pages/car.aspx
  12. it doesn't seem to be to many people active on this forum that offer any advice when you actually want some and not just a opinion u know? i need some help here and outta how many members we have im sure not getting all the help i need/want! dcfish,2whitelexus,GuyTelefunken,any1 ...........where u at? im looking for some of you older fellows to guide me here.........WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO MAKE SURE I COVER IN THE 90K MAINTENANCE THAT I DIDN'T COVER IN THE 1ST POST?
  13. just doing a little more of my own homework and i didnt know until yesterday that rod millen motorsports used to make a supercharger for the gs400........only 25 were ever made according to them as i contacted the new company (it got passed down to one of the sons) they said it wouldnt bolt straight to a gs430 but could be adapted! anyways......with them only making 25 odds of finding one real rare! but someone told me trd makes one and i cant find ANY info on it..........anyone know anything about it?
  14. ok spent about 30 mins on the phone talking with adam at jet technologies 1-323-683-8027 about a supercharger for the gs430! there is FINALLY a forced induction option avaliable for the gs430! its a centrifugal supercharger said it comes with a 8 psi pulley (said a 10 might be standard when it goes into full production) he said its making mid 400 hp (so think like 440-475 hp) anyways he said the msrp is $3000.00 and when they go into production (they are still out about 3 to 3 1/2 weeks on shipping he said) said it may go higher in price when they go into full production but he said anyones welcome to pre-order one for the 3000 which i'll tell u is a hell of a deal for mid 400 hp! (2whitelexus actually owns a jet supercharger for his gs300 so he might be able to answer some ?'s about ease of installation/reliability/etc....hope u dont mind the emails that might start coming at u 2whitelexus) anyways...........he did say NO piggyback unit/extra fuel injectors/intercooler will be added to the kit BUT he did say the plumbing for the intercooler should be VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD.......as far as the injectors and the piggyback i dunno what will have to be done! im gonna email 2whitelexus and ask him what he did and also talk to my personal mechanic and see what he thinks/suggests! OH I ALSO ASKED WHEN THEY GO INTO FULL PRODUCTION IF WE COULD SET UP A GROUP BUY IF THATS POSSIBLE AND HE SAID WHEN THEY GO INTO FULL PRODUCTION WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT SO START ASKING YOUR MODERATORS AND WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN GET DONE AS A GROUP!hope this helps someone atleast besides me........im incredibly (sp) stoked about the possibility of getting a forced induction motor even though i wanted to turbocharge i think i will settle for a supercharger! hopefully i can find the money and do this!
  15. omfg i love that 2white.......thats so freaking cool! i didnt know i could unroll my windows/open sunroof from the remote! is there a range on it?
  16. i havent since that one day.......like i said give adam a call and find out...... im sure like myself alot of people pipe dreaming about this so who knows how many will need/use it but if one does then im glad! my goal is to do it since i scrapped my audio build now!
  17. u have the remote shell or the regular shell on this key? i think sewell lexus sells just the shell and you can buy a shell on ebay for cheap........might have to but a shell with the uncut key and remove the uncut key! i dunno how the transponder works or if your car has one but i would assume that should be ok!
  18. help me out people........what other things besides what i have listed in the 1st post do i need to check/do for my 90k maintenance?
  19. well good old ebay i found a kit with the water pump/timing belt/idler pulleys (both left and right)/the tensioners/and the gaskets for 184.96 shipped! not bad........this knocked out 428.00 in parts i was gonna buy! here check out the link it looks ok and not some ghetto product! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/01-07-Lexus...emZ260204697240 what other things do i need to check/do for my 90k maintenance?
  20. yeah i used them to buy my upgrade nav disc and am ordering my replacement keys from them just figured they would be really high on factory parts! i will try them though thanks brian
  21. ok im fixing to do my 90k maintenance on my car and im wondering if anyone knows best place to get the parts and what all is required? i know i need to do timing belt (doing water pump while im at it), idler pulleys, tensioner, checking rear differential, checking ball joints, changing spark plugs, cam seals..........i have already done my air filter/cabin air filter/brakes(rotors/pads/fluid)/coolant/transmission fluid! anything else major i need to do? also ne1 know best place to buy these parts? doesnt have to be oem units but if i can get them cheaply i will! thanks brian
  22. ok i think i finely found the basic difference i was looking for........the 430 is a 4.3L and the 400 is a 4.0L
  23. i went through this the other day........dealer doesn't recognize anything or any system with the name c-best/c-bert it just is not called this!! im not saying u cant do that but when i went to get my locks changed they and 3 other dealers had no recollection of c-best or c-bert! anyways 2white how the hell can u roll down your windows while u walking up? u add a after market alarm and that or is it factory?
