A Lexus SC400 and a 2JZ Motor - Read below:

The SC400:
Year: 1992
Make: Lexus
Model: SC400
Mileage: 200k~
Title Status: Clear
Transmission: Auto
Current Engine:
1UZ-FE

Extra details: The car RAN and drove excellent and is beautiful on the exterior. I just put a new JVC double din with all new speakers in the car. It also is setup with a 5 channel amp. I have a cheap 10" sub I was gonna put in the factory location, but apparently its an 8". The car has sat for the past month due to my lack of time diagnosing a loss of spark. Cranks fine, can smell fuel. I am guessing it a bad cap/rotor. I just replaced the coolant reservoir as it cracked (guessing the rotors got wet when this happened). Traction control, overdrive and all that works perfect. The transmission mount needs replaced as it has the infamous 2700~ rpm shudder going down the interstate. Shifts fine, 2nd gear shift solenoid was just replaced within the last 6 months. The interior needs some work. Typical bolster wear on the drivers seat (has leather seat covers on it now to prevent any further tearing). Drivers door panel appears to have been taken off a hundred times. Need a new drivers window regulator. Someone prior to me apparently tried to install an sc300 window regulator and it doesn't work. Passenger window works fine. Power tilt works, sunroof works, not sure how to unlock trunk.

The car does NOT run. It will need to be trailered.


 
The
2JZ-GTE VVTi:

This is an imported 2jzgte auto VVTi with...
  • Tweak'd Performance self contained harness. (This allows the engine to be ran simply by hooking up constant/switched power and a ground. Very simple and effective.)
  • Engine has been in a 300zx and ran just fine.
  • The engine also has driftmotions AC/PS delete pulley/belt on it.
  • I have some of the original equipment, but ask if it will affect your purchase.
  • I have a MAPECU2 setup if you would decide to upgrade the fuel system or turbo.
  • sc300 motor mounts (direct bolt up to sc400 and allow to the installation of the 2jz into an sc400)
  • I will include, basically all you need minus a rear sump oil pan to swap and drive the car with bare essentials.
Below is a link to the video below is a video of the engine running, it didn't have the air meter properly inserted in the intake pipe - hence the stuttering and barely able to stay running.

  I will have the 2jzgte, sc400, and all mounts/accessories ready for pickup when this sells.

2013 Lexus ES350

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Finally Saying Goodbye To Its Camry Roots
In its equivalent world of breakfast foods, the Lexus ES350 is unquestionably the pancake. While its siblings may offer more interesting textures, flavors and consistencies - a generally more exciting culinary experience - the four-door ES is designed with 'indistinct' as its middle name. Its objective is to please just about every entry-level luxury buyer once it ends up on their plate.
Even after a complete redesign for the 2013 model year, the sixth-generation Lexus ES350 emerges every bit as family-friendly and non-polarizing as its predecessors. It is the everyman's luxury sedan, offering attractive pricing and a satisfying fill of amenities and features with the sweetness of a long warranty and polished customer service to back things up.

Lexus crafts working IS sedan out of cardboard [w/video]

Tue, Oct 6 2015

People make model cars out of all sorts of material: wood, plastic, metal... and sure, even cardboard. What sets this one apart is that it's built to scale – as in, full scale – and what's more is that it can actually be driven. Then again, we couldn't vouch for its crashworthiness, so that might not be advisable. The replica Lexus IS sedan was commissioned by the Japanese automaker's UK office and made by two British workshops: Scales & Models and LaserCut Works. It's inspired by the Japanese art of origami and made out of cardboard, except for the working parts and the frame made of steel and aluminum. It's got a fully functional interior, opening doors, working headlights, rolling wheels, and an electric motor. The form is made up of cardboard 10 millimeters (0.4 inches) thick, provided by packaging company DS Smith. The material was laser-cut into 1,700 components, according to a 3D digital model provided by Lexus, and assembled by hand and painstakingly fixed into place by water-based wood glue that has to set for 10 minutes between each step. Little wonder that the whole project took three months to complete. The finished product will be on display at the NEC in Birmingham later this week during the Grand Designs Live Show. But if you're not planning on heading there yourself, you can check it out in the image gallery above and making-of video below. This content is hosted by a third party.

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
