Thanks for all your input.. updated WTB: FMIC Coilovers/Rims ECU (most likely Nistune)

Niice.. well a few things to cross off the list; boost cont., injectors and z32 AFM.. Not bad finds considering its been less than a day since I posted this. I decided to give Trojan a call to see if, by chance, they had an AFM lying around.. and they did.

Thanks for that! Someone on SAU pm'd me (chef Stagea) and brought the exact injectors to my attention. $300 for 660cc.. done! Is the z32 necessary?.. or more like a 'just in case' mod? Definitely hitting up that nistune.. by what I've read; recommended by all and value for money!

Thank u so much!

Someone has recommended CRD for tuning. And I do believe they have a 'special' offer in their business thread on these forums. But I've never done this before so....

Ok guys... where is the ECU.. lol, I'm sorry for asking such a basic question, but I've never had to touch/see an ECU before reading up on nistune-ing.

Hey guys, Unfortunately the time has come to sell my 1992 LS400. sadface. I had plenty of dreams and aspirations to mod it VIP Style, but due to discovering a leak from the head gasket - which was discovered a couple of days after I purchased the car - and the CV joints (i think) needing replacement soon, PLUS! a bodged-up ankle surgery, I havent got the funds on hand to repair it. I still drive this as a daily to and from work which is around 10km each way.. and the occasional trip to sydney and back.. and always keeping an eye on the oil/water. I'm not 100% sure on the extent and exactly the details of the head gasket issue, but having 2 shops look at it, they gave me around $2k - $3k ballpark figure to have it fixed. The best/cheaper option would be to drop a new 1UZ in there.. or whatevs. Other than that MAJOR issue, the interior is MINT! I would love to see it repaired and get it where it should be. Otherwise, I will probably just drive it to the ground. $2000 Located in ACT Contact: Karl mobile: 0432808254 or PM! Specs: 1992 Lexus LS400 Rego til 8/11 150,xxx km Two-tone silver/grey Moonroof Blue leather interior (excellent condition!

ahh dammit! I wanted that boost controller..!

Whoah.. strong bump. Aside from cars.. my other (expensive) hobby is getting tattoos. When I run out of money, I play Xbox.. and there are times even on XBL when I dont have Microsoft Points to download new maps (ie Annihilation).

+1 for peoples opinions

On the hunt for an immobiliser. And desperate to get it on ASAP due to the recent mass car jacking that took place here in Canberra the other nite. FFFUUUUUU!

Good advice. Also handy when used in contact with knee caps - for the non-golfers.

..dont remind me.

lol.. yeah.. altho, after awhile, I did discover the plusses of a boot.

omfg. Im in the same area with my stagea in open view, albeit up a driveway. Hopefully Volvo's aren't appealing.
