  1. yea I was gonna do that they got some used low milage tranny's I found out here for like 300 bux I'm gonna jump on one and replace it. The car is in okay shape the interior I'm replacing however the paint has some oxidizing on the bumpers but even in the condition its in i can get her back up to snuff and go from there.....

  2. Cool purchase!

    Sounds as if you need to replace the upper and lower control arm bushings Dazien sells them , also with the hydraulics on it before I would check out the motor mounts and transmission mounts as well. You are pretty much on the right track by changing the front shocks and rear struts and adding some lowering springs. Since you are going that route why not check out the traction (torsion) bars to see if they are not bent or tweeked out. Pretty much every front end item related to the suspension should be inspected a changed if damaged or wearing out.

  3. Hello to all I havent been on the site since I sold my SC400 a couple years

    I have a 1991 LS 400 I just picked up for $600 The car runs very well with the exception of the transmission and sound listed below.

    When I first start up the car I hear a loud griding that goes away once the car is running. It seems as if its either my fly wheel or my starter, but the car starts up with no hesitation.

    I also have a trasmission issue that my OD button flashes when it is ingaged, I also have the car shifting into higher gears too soon ex like going from 1st to 3rd. I am going to do a tranny fluid change to see if it goes away or stays the same. So if it doesnt improve could it be due to one of the solinoids going bad? I know that there are four of them.

    All input is appreciated!
