Thanks for the easy transaction @MobiusR. I'll update here when I get this installed in the next month or so. Trying to figure out what stereo to install in my 04 LX.

Up for sale is my 130,000 km (81,000 miles) JDM Land Cruiser. Purchased at auction in Aug of 22 in Japan with about 99,000 KM, imported in Oct 23. Vehicle is in good shape for its age and has virtually no rust. Paint is a B-, some iron contamination in right rear quarter panel and the pearl...

Happy with the ride, I have maybe 100 lbs of stuff in the back of the truck normally, but it doesn’t sag too much if I put my dirt bike on the trailer hitch carrier. It rides much better than the OME and toytec lifts I had in old 4Runners. I think they’re good springs for a daily driver, just a...

I haven't seen too much on the EGR delete for 2UZs when I searched for it a while back, only the 1UZ. What have you found?

Are those methods? What size? Your paint looks amazing, wish mine was that good!

Do you have a Cygnus? I can tell you have a different trim level with the side mirror indicators. If you ever want to wrench on your truck, let me know, I'm in Monument. I have all the tools for the time belt job. Check out my key write-up if you need additional keys or just want some decent...

On my 98 I used a two part epoxy for plastic, it’s been holding well for the last few months. I put some wood blocks and wedged it under the windshield for the seam near the windshield.

This is great, I'm going to do this.

I had the same problem, I trimmed the filters to fit (depth-wise) and two fit on top of each other like they’re supposed to. I think you still get most of the benefit, I’m sure some air goes around the edge.

I was able to swap a North American door control module in so I don't have to use the Japanese key. Here is the write up: US Model Door Module for JDM

I like this one from Amazon. Not the cheapest but the quality is good for the money: JRready ST5234 Pin Extractor Tool Set

I hope those of you with JDM trucks are able to find some value in this. I don't have an immobilizer on my truck, if you do you may want to make sure the new key registers on the ECU before you buy a door module and start taking things apart.

You'll need to swap the brackets on the modules, take off the cover and it's one screw.

One of the pins that was missing was the ground switch that blinks the tail lights. I went digging in the wiring manual and sure enough, plug "IU4" was in the same place but on the opposite side in my truck. I put a tap on the wire and now my tail lights blink when I lock and unlock! Added...

There are few gripes I have with the JDM Land Cruiser key remote: 1) Only has one button that locks and unlocks 2) Range is terrible, you have to be very close to the front door 3) North American key remotes are not compatible with the JDM module (89741-60050) and the JDM key (89785-50070 ?) is...
