Default The NEW 4DoorSupra!

Woke up this morning at 5AM and drove to Jacksonville to pick up the new 4doorsupra project! Just got back about 5 minutes ago and took some pics to share! 1991 Lexus LS400, got it for $500. Just to let everyone know too it doesnt run, ROD KNOCK.









Thanks for looking!

Nice! Get ready to do a steering rack, because if it had rod knock they probably didnt pay attention to what fluid to use (ATF, NOT POWER STEERING! All 3 of my Toyotas had this problem)

With 1UZs going for $500, I'd think it would be hard to consider a JZ swap..are you planning S/C or turbo?

Well the car has no rod knock....im guessing previous owner does not know too much about cars , but it was the water pump going bad. Witht that in mind i think i will just keep the motor stock for know since they are already a very powerful motor and work on the looks, making it a full out VIP car.
If any i will put an intake and exhaust!
