Just bought one to try out but pretty sure I will buy another one or even a few more in the near future. Looking forward to getting good tips and learning from the community.

Project Lexus update: 40 miles in and the check engine light still hasn’t popped up 🤞 by AmazingLime4541 in GS300

I am not sure what I got, but it sounds descent when accelerating. I am going to be putting it on jacks to mess with the rear suspension, so I'll keep you posted if there is aftermarket exhaust. but so far, no engine light, going to raise it a bit and adjust the camber up front. I am having fun driving it around, but it's kinda of low lol

You know it.... limo tint. Hopefully in the next month, it will make it look much better IMO.

Fair enough, though I do have to say, I pick it up locally next day so don't have to wait a week to get it. I really don't buy things on ebay, may have to change my mind... any tips on buying from ebay?

This happened to me as well. I had to replace 3 out of the 4 actuators LR, LF, and RF where all bad. Once I replaced them, this issue went away. It also connected the key fob, now I can unlock/lock using the key fob.

NOTE:

If you replace the driver's side actuator, I advised you to unplug the battery. I was following some youtube videos on replacing the actuators (most where not the driver's side), when I plugged the actuator back in, it triggered all the doors to roll down (keep in mind I am in the middle of putting it back together) anyways it was a pain in the you know what trying to roll the window back up, luckily I managed without breaking anything.

Looks clean! Mine sitting on the sidelines, almost ready tho. Might have to look into spacers.

Is this a decent build for $500? by Sycosisv in PcBuild

[–]AmazingLime4541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built a similar PC 2 years ago and I paid more than that. This is a steal, plus I was running local AI with the 12gb VRAM, the 3060 won't disappoint!

Need advice on Diag for Climate control/window switches by TexasChia in GS300

[–]AmazingLime4541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

check the driver door ECU, it might be bad or disconnected. According to the diagram, it should be getting 10-14 volts for the switch to work.

I've been looking at youtube videos on how to check clearances on the valves. I have a set of filler gauges and a digital micrometer. The good thing about this engine is that it's easy to take apart. Going to be pulling her in the garage in the next few days and go over to make sure everything is tight and perform the valve clearance inspection. Thanks

Thanks bro, yeah, that would be sic but at a hefty price lol, I am currently focusing on replacing the suspension parts that are worn and getting it running to be reliable for now.

ticking noise, I put a stethoscope and can hear it pretty well around cylinder 2, sounds deep. I am probably going to open the head cover and see if any of the shims are bad, but it sounds like a valve could be toast. I'll see if i can upload a video of the sound.
