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.

    • I know it's been YEARS but hunting down that trunk lip spoiler!
    • Absolutely nothing wrong with a Profec or similar. He's on a Nistune, so external boost control is a better option anyway.  
    • I would not replace the gauges. A well setup tune should never require any of that. I'm of the opinion that if you can't safely hand over a car to your parents to drive it's not fit for purpose and more engineering work should be done. Honestly I'm not a fan of external boost controller boxes either but if you have to you can shove the controller into the glovebox or something once it's set up. Tee it off the OEM MAP sensor. Also you probably want to put a two pin plug on the new solenoid, bolting it to the OEM location works. Just separate the wastegate line and compressor outlet so it will work on a 3 port solenoid, kevboost was walked through how to do this on an RB26, same idea just different locations on an RB25. You may have to remove the restrictor in the OEM hoses if they're still in there. 
    • Yep, it's why in Australia we never brought in the 1 child policy like China.  China can't afford to use the shit they make in their own country as it's too much to risk having only one child...  Or maybe that's how they test their shit before they send it to Australia - they use the second kid that families had when they weren't supposed to as the tester?  They weren't supposed to exist in the first place so no loss if they succumb to a work place incident?  🤣
