  1. You could always buy my set of rims if you really want a new set which will fit a 95 and up as i have 3 sets for my car summer 20's winter factory 98 LS 16's colour matched all season factory LS 16's that i bought them with and would sell as i don;t realy need them
  2. What year SL are you coming from?
  3. Don't apologize in anyway thieux it is not needed and i don't think anyone on this forum expects or needs you to. Being in the Caribbean over what everyone assumed was mainland USA is a very different story . My background is Guyanese and i know how wonderful and dreadful it can be all in one. Carrying a gun is a normal part of society there and is quiet well needed in the event of every day life. Most of my family there have teams of security for the houses business and personal transport because everyone everyday is trying to scheme the easy way to make a buck. That said , thanks for the clarification and the interesting debate. I love this club and its members. The most twisted topics other than "oil and Gas" can always be concluded with level and respectful heads.
  4. Check your tire pressures and alignment first
  5. I would still let the tech who diagnoised it one more shot since he found most problems.
  6. If the button does not work ,turn the key in the door lock and it will disarm the alarm. Just make sure the door is closed first
  7. The only thing that is different is some of the parts sourcing , they have tried and done an excellent job of recreating the Japanese build quality in a North American plant when i visited the plant a few months ago for a special invitation viewing. So real problems will only arise after a few years and if they do it will not be from the design and engineering but would be from parts makers who supply the smaller parts which have to be sourced around North America rather than Japan and other Asian suppliers. So either way if a part is found to not be up to " Lexus " par it would more than likely be resourced from Asia.
  8. Ahh , but the major difference is the 1 and only purpose of a gun is to inflict injury or death . If that was the sole reason for owning a car then we would have a real problem. :) This is like the oil debate ,everyone has an opinion and is entitled to it. No one will agree to ever change side but we all show what and how we have beliefs on the issue. The problem is "WE" on this forum are not the ones anyone has a problem having a firearm . It is the "others" who have them that cause discretion on ownership. It is unfortunate that to effectively remove a problem in society you need to disarm everyone . This also leads to the criminals finding other means to injury and kill.
  9. I would beg to differ , you can change the factory head unit to a radio and cd unit if you want . I have a alpine screen in my 94 ES so i know it can be done.
  10. the "I" does stand for intelligence not interference
  11. I only see it as ,you open the over the counter philosophy of selling a murder weapon to normal good citizens you allow the bad ones the same entitlement to own one also. I like jc19907 post it made sense to me. I also like the idea of tasers over guns as self protection as it is non lethal under most normal circumstances. But like the glass being half full over half empty guns for law abiding citizens= more acess for guns for criminals.
  12. An aftermarket alarm with a shock sensor would be the easiest detractor. Or a good alarm shop who knows how to add a shock sensor to a factory alarm system which can be also done easily. BTW your model shows up as an AS 330 to the left of your posts
  13. After your detailed update. Sounds like your fuel pump has to get up to speed and is having problems. You may have a clogged fuel pump which needs to be overcome when it is cold. I would look at an electrical problem either fuel pump or voltage related.
  14. SO if you push the gas it stays running?
  15. Most people don't think about it but a playstation is a DVD player so it works great if you are getting a player for your car just get a PS2 with a voltage adapter and your done. I did that with my car and everyone loves it. BTW i would check a few friends cars and see if the headrest are the same as i know on my ES the headrest fit from accords and many other cars .So if you can score some prefab ones it is much easier to just plug and play rather than install them to look right.
  16. Like they say guns don't kill people ,people kill people. If the world was perfect there would be no guns needed. If it was kind good only officers of law and military would carry. I still feel no civilian should be armed besides he was stealing a bike............. call the police and let them look after it. I am sure it was a rush but not the kind i would be looking for. I prefer someone armed with self defence who could disarm almost anyone at close range and suppress them without endangering anyone else. Just might be me though.
  17. The points inside the back of the key cylinder is worn. It is especially a problem on cars with owners who have or had heavy keys. I did my father inlaws honda with a brand new peice with wiring harness and it was $100 which i find dirt cheap.
  18. I have an Ipaq 5550 with a HP bletooth gps receiver running the navtec mapping system which is the exact same one as all cars with OEM nav. It works great and i can move it in all 4 of my cars depending on what i am doing. I have an outer case that has a belt clip which alllows it to clip onto the back of my ashtray. I have a pic but not showcasing it very well in on of my threads about my LS.
  19. You pop the cover off with your key and then press you key into the hole beside the shifter.
  20. Try playing with the gear shifter back and forth
  21. Well said also GUY, I love analogies and am known to make them up all the time , So here is one that i see fit , You wouldn't walk into a library and ask the librarian to write a paper or report for you because they have read most of the book and are knowledgeable.
  22. I thought you could just buy the microphone for $100 from Toyota and add voice commands like the sienna and most other full function Toyota head units. I am pretty sure it is what i pinned in the audio video section. Also you need to find out which carrier you want to go with before being able to select a phone depending on its capabilities and protocol.
  23. I know i got my hood ones from ebay for $50 never seen trunk ones other than the SC400. I'll have to take a look as mine are a bit lazy on my 98 also.
  24. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...showtopic=26285 do you think your signiture could be any bigger?
  25. Well after 1 day and some semi cold weather i can finally go in my car and while it warms up the interior it is not blasting me with hot air thinking i am an icicle with the fan at full tilt
