Just did the Toyota Japan factory tour and museum.

Saw Lexus's and Toyota's being assembled on same production line with same people / tools.

I want a Toyota now....

Cos it's made in the same place? couldn't care less. Toyota aren't the only ones to share parts across makes & models. Not to mention why wouldn't it be same people & tools lol Edited by alr33x

Fyp

of the current models, none in AU that I am aware of apart from the "not a landcruiser"...

historically a lot of the "lexus" cars we get are just JDM toyota models with a lexus badge and a bullshit price tacked on...

soarer and celcior would be easy examples but there are many more.

Nissan do it too with the infinity range

Because AD08Rs won't get you cred at the hardpark meets

why. there is noting you can do with 1000 hp

except break cars.

i was hoping there would be like a GTR graveyard area at Sydney dragway on the weekend.

if you want mega hp, just get an XR6 turbo or something.

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
