1991 Aussie Lexus LS400 (early series 2)

- 306,000km

- 190kw 1uze-fe

- Auto

- Has full service history from new until 2007, since then I have changed oil/filters regularly

- Electric seats with memory, electric windows, mirrors

- Full climate control with aircon working well

- Cruise control

- Economy is pretty good for an 8cyl. I average around 11L/100km.

Recently replaced:

* Front rotors with slotted DBA

* New front pads

* New shocks all round

All gizmos, etc still work fine, auto still shifts very smoothly. Has been my daily driver for near 2 years now and never skipped a beat. Very reliable, and is a great car to drive - feels much newer than it is.

The bad: The stereo decided to pack it in the other week, seems to be the factory amp. Also climate control display fogged up which is a standard LS400 thing -- you can get replacement screen on ebay for $160

Body is completely rust free, and still paint very good for age. Seems to have been kept undercover most of its life. Has done a few km, but the 1uzfe has been known to do 500,000km. Engine seems pretty healthy and should give many more kilometers, halfcut engines are cheap anyhow if you did ever need to slot another engine in... or you could always do a 1jz or 2jz for kicks.

Will sell with rego+safety cert. Have yet to obtain safety certificate (needs 4x new tyres), but will do so upon sale..

$5500 - Goldcoast (NO SWAPS)

Price drop to $5200 (will be listed for more when it goes on carsales soon).

Just had fitted 4x new Goodyear tyres, and paid another 6 months rego. So total $800 of extras.. for cheaper.

I've also managed to get the stereo working again.

Gday,

Would you be interested in selling anything seperate / exchange.

Your front seats appear to have slightly better leather then mine, would you be interested in swapping seats plus cash your way?

Also interested in the front bumper extension (black plastic lip) if your willing to sell please let me know.

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • PROBLEM WAS BROKEN COOLANT SENSOR!!! Replaced with a new one and its running mint.
    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
