For sale is my 1991 1UZFE Lexus V8 SC400 (soarer) in Immaculate condition

It has been looked after by Trojan Motorsport with the same mechanic for a number of years. (If you don't know these guys, they are the import professionals of canberra, feel free to ring them for any questions about my car)

Rego till July 2012

Car has always been garaged and has spent most of its life under a car cover.

All the luxury options

Everything works

Mechanically excellent - Major service at 120,000 kms with timing belt changed, new leads (genuine), platinum spark plugs, all new hoses, new water pump and rotors.

Serviced every 5,000 kms. Last service was less than 1000kms ago.

Lower control arm bushes replaced 3,500 kms ago.

CD changer reconditioned 2011.

Front brakes have a lot left on them - Upgraded front brakes for improved safety.This was done with the last service and the brake lines were flushed with high quality oil.

Upgraded exhaust on the back to give a slightly nicer note. It does not drone at all and is very quiet while cruising. Had it built to a flange so can easily be replaced with the stock mufflers which I still have. Tyres have plenty left on them.

This car is in superb condition and you will be hard pressed to find another one like it. The major (common) mechanical and electronic problems have been sorted, ie the control arm bushes, EMV, no blinky dash, EMV linked CD changer. There are cheaper examples available, but they will not have all this expensive work done and they struggle to compare.

Please feel free to call or email for more information. I will also consider a swap for an R33 GTS-T in good nick with reasonable km's.

My car is on carsales:

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
