I wrecked my 93 lexus ls400 about 5 weeks ago. engine is still good. i cranked the car up and drove it onto my friends trailer to be towed home, and then backed it off and drove into my driveway. only thing wrong on the engine is the fan blade/clutch. it is a non traction control, front sump 1uz-fe. back in november i put the engine back in it. when it was pulled, i pulled the heads, did a valve job to both, new valve stem seals, new hg's, new head bolts, all front seals, rear seal, timing belt. water pump was recently done so left it alone, rebuilt the starter, new valve cover gaskets and spark plug tube seals, new plugs, new engine temp sensor, all new intake gaskets, cleaned the egr system out, welded up the cracks in the egr pipe, new exhaust manifold gaskets, replaced all the small coolant hoses around the intake manifold, all 4 o2 sensors were replaced within the last 2 months, new motor mounts, new trans mount, rebuilt the starter, new trans front seal and pan gasket, pulled the lower pan to clean it out, there was no sludge at all in it, cats are good. a/c compressor is perfect. a/c was ice cold, alt is an actual ls400 120amp alt(had to install this myself as a previous owner installed a 100 amp sc alt), power steering pump doesnt leak either. engine has 180k miles on it and runs perfect. it is bone stock. nothing was modded except cutting the front of the air box to allow more air in so id get a lil better gas mileage. still ran the stock paper air filter. hadnt bought a k&n yet. i also have all of the plastic covers that go on the engine. the only one not installed is the one over the throttle cables, but it is in my garage, just never put it back on.


since the engine is still in the car, i can crank it for anyone interested to hear it run before i pull it. all needed plugs can be cut from the car etc.. so this is truely a full swap if your interested in putting this engine in another car! i need to find another car so need the money, otherwise it would go in one of my supras. if interested lmk. with all the work i did to it already, price will be $1k FIRM!!!! for the entire engine/trans/ecu/harness/etc... setup. everything needed for it to run.


obviously i dont want to deal with shipping this and would prefer someone that would be able to come pick it up or close enough that i could meet them half way or possibly deliver it. plus youd be able to see and hear it before its pulled so you know what your getting.


car is technically fixable, but by the time everything is bought to fix it i dont feel its worth it for me as ive done so much work already. the front seats(both are power) and center console lid were redone in leather last year, i bought the tires new last year, new front pads last year, installed polly carrier arm bushings a few months ago, the adus 505's and 5056's, have the rear trans seal, but havent installed it yet, diff is there, axels, etc.., though obviously a non lsd, all windows good except the windshield(tiny crack in the bottom passenger corner), gauge cluster lights up completely, etc... as is id sell the whole car for $2500 obo without the radio. sunroof and all windows, power tilt steering wheel etc.. all work. only thing wrong with the car before the wreck was i needed to change the caps in the cluster so the gas gauge would work(i have the caps, they arrived the week of the crash), and the climate control needs a new lcd screen, but the controls for it still worked. im soo mad i didnt have collision on this thing. grrrrrrrr

ok, the front right of my car hit the back left of the van. my arm was on the arm rest and broke the shifter. i bent the rod back up so i could change the gears. ignition switch is toast. it wouldnt turn all the way to the left to allow me to remove the key. had to force it out with pliers. both airbags went off. windshield is cracked at the bottom passenger corner. wiper pinched between the hood and windshield and cracked it. front passenger door is dented a lil by the fender cause the emt guy forced it open to check my vitals. front bumper is toast, bumper support toast. radiator support toast. the front is still aligned good and not damaged. it barely damaged my air box. condenser is bad, radiator too. condenser fans, hood and grill. passenger fender, passenger side lights in the front are all gone. drivers side is ok except the drivers fender where the hood buggered it up near the windshield, and thats it pretty much.
i got a couple spare parts that can go with it. i got a new factory sub cover, though the color is wrong. was gonna dye it match. got a spare gauge cluster for parts(actually its the one that came in the car, i swapped the board that holds the mileage info though). got an extra air box too. might be others. ill have to look around.


hope these pics are satisfactory. everything goes with the car except the stereo system. as you can see the front seats and console cover look new. they were redone a lil over a year ago. also the tires have excellent tread on them. i only put about 10k miles on them and i have the receipt as i purchased road hazard and the free replacement certs etc... bottom of the radiator never moved btw. just the top. we used a ratchet strap hooked to the trailer to pull the radiator support back to get the radiator off the fan so the engine would start and run.

god that sucks, what a nice car....

 

Will do you have an alternator available?

 

how bad as those A/C fans?
They look like they got a little bit crunched. Are they totally trashed or is it just the housings that are a little banged up.
If they still work, I'd be interested in picking them up.
Pm me
thanks

 

William can I get a response pm me or post here thanks,

 

sorry for the late reply. had a busy weekend.

as for altenator, i got the one on the engine, which goes with the engine, then i have one that was on the car when i bought it. it doesnt have a round plug, has a long oval plug. kinda flat. id sell the one wit hthe oval plug. it worked fine, just the wires to the plug were hacked by the previous owner so i put the other alt on as i had a good pigtail for it. if you want it $40.

as for the a/c fans. i know at least 1 wont sping because the housing is smashed on it. the other i dont recall. ill look at them when i get home and let you know. both motors should still work fine though. both worked before the wreck. ill figure a price after i check out the damage etc.. cant see pics from work.

also, the stock rims have 225/60/16 tires with ~10k on them. bought them brand new at tire kingdom last year and still have the recipt etc... i need to sell these to someone that can give me their rims with crappy tires to put back on the car so ill be able to junk it once its stripped. main things left thats good is the engine/trans setup, rear diff/axels, misc interior stuff like carpet, door panels, all doors are good though front passenger side has some paint damage as it rubs the fender when opened. all glass is good except windshield, sunroof is good including the motor, cluster is good. trunk lid is good, as door, rear bumper cover, i have poly carrier arm bushings installed that ill be pulling out to sell. ran me $120 for them, so say $80. and they were only on the car like 3-4 weeks total. front calipers, rotors and pads(upgrade for 90-92), etc...

 

the ac fans the motors and blades seem ok. but the housings around them are busted. ill have to cut the front bumper off to get to them, but its gonna get cut off to get the engine out anyway, so if you want the motors lmk and i can get them out for you. $30 for the pair?
