  1. ohhh it is fun. but u need the power to drift
  2. i am hoping they come out with the nokia 62** on cingular. it is on at&t now. if they don't i will get the motorola. one of the reasons i got my car was for the blue tooth. i just got my blue tooth laptop recently
  3. u can tell by the bottom front bumper.also the fogs ar "longer".04 is the second make over..
  4. there are only like 3 people woth a 04 430 on here so don't expect much..thats minus 1 so watch out for the other 2
  5. i don't know about the older engines but i know that my engine has VVT-i, so shouldan't it produce max power to redline, and also lets say i was in the tiptronic mode, my car has the 6spd, does it use the input from pedal position and gear to give me the right power, while in pwr, or ormal modes?
  6. who else is going to light some fireworks?
  7. i am curious how the pwr button works
  8. well mine is a boat and i don't have the sport suspension
  9. i have a 430 also..maybe the gear isn't cut angled enough
  10. when u hit the lock button on the door it sends a signal to a eletric motor to move a lock into place. that motor went dead and wont move his lock
  11. just let the car cool and give it a once over with a cloth drenched in degreaser
  12. go back? i would never be found on road dead ever again.
  13. question. what are those grey bars. some people have diffeent levels. some people i can not see some i can. like i have 2 grey bars. its right under the regular group member on my thingy
  14. i head gasket could be much worse. you could leak coolent into the engine causing it to mix with the oil causing it to create this white paste type stuff. only one way to tell get is to get on your knees and get a flash light and have a look to see if it is leaking from the head. take a pic of the head if u want more opinions too
  15. you can not also rule out a head gasket. that is an labor intensive fix not so cheap.
  16. u could have a bad gasket that goes between the oil pan and the motor. cheap fix but requires an oil change and labor.
  17. if i don't find one i think i may settle for this. i thought it was fitting no?
  18. i am looking for a VW golf or jetta body. in 200mm..know any body who is selling. cause i think taimia only made them for like month and that s it
  19. WOW! :o Only 23?!?!? I'm shocked! I know where you're comming from though. No one ever believes me when I say that I'm 17. People say I look atleast 24-25. LS430, we need more pics of that FX_5!! :D ask and u shall recieve..35 btw. enjoy
  20. I know! Who gives a crap?? Who cares if you're old(we'll all be old someday, so who cares? It's a fact of life!)?? An '03 ES owner is in his 70's, and we love him just as much as members that are 30. We're all here for one thing-to talk about our Lexi and develop friendships. That's it! :D I've never once felt descriminated by my young age here! Steve's right; LOC has some great people. :D Take a look at other online car clubs. For ex., I looked at a Mustang Cobra club(since we have one). Wow, was I amazed. The people are so childish, and all they do is argue and insult each other about frivolous things. LS430, that is a gorgeous FX! Doesn't vvt-i use hydraulic lifters to !Removed! and accelerate the opening and closing of the valves to maximize low end hp and torque--fuel econ.? Steve, I say 35-40 years old. <_< I do know what your screen name means! lol There was a post from a long, long time ago that seemed to disappear that had everyone explain their LOC handle. this place is great VIVA LA LOC vtec uses the computer active different lobes on the cam so it changes the timing so that it produces max hp and high and low rpm. i'd say u were were pretty close
  21. I bought my first Lexus in January, 2004 and found this forum after a week. And let me tell you, I visit this forum about more than 5 times a day. Since you are new let me give you the low down of the LOC. I’m only 17 years old and my birth date has been posted in my profile since the day I joined. I’m not an expert with cars internally, you can read throw my old posts and see what I have said. I talk about things that I know of: how to go about buying a maintained used car and where to find it or keeping it in a good condition by recommending the leather conditioner, waxes and so forth that I have used on my family cars or heck just give my opinion about something like rims or window tint, etc…. These young guys that have posted above, they know more about cars than most people here in this forum; nobody here cares how old you are, where you are from, or how much your car costs. The only thing that matters here is Respect, kindness and willingness to help each other out. And have a good time, period. I have learned so much about cars in the past few months that it is just unbelievable to me. i probrably know more than most here too being that i was the president of my autoclub at my high school. pic of a one of my cars in the shop which is the funny thing. most people may think ohh expensive car bet u don't know how it works. lol i am the other way around..quick question who here knows how vtech or vvt-i works? i say probrably less than half
