I ordered a new short block from Toyota from Olathe KS. 3800.00 plus shipping. Took about 3 weeks to arrive. Running perfectly. You have to add everything as it only has block, crankshaft, rods, pistons, rings and oil squirters. No Dowell pins or oil office. I transferred some unavailable...

I did the same, new short block from Toyota. Happy with it.

My mechanic delivered the short block in the original shipping box. It weighs 350lbs and is 35" L. 24" W and 20" H. I have not shipped anything this heavy before. My shipping city is Enid, OK 73703 USA. See if you can get a price from your end. Needs heavy duty straps, but box is heavy...

I am having problems with my 09 200 HVAC. From startup after sitting a while (varies) temps default to 75 on both sides. I can set lower temps and AC works fine. Also upon startup the Auto is on but no temps show up on screen. After a bit, 30 to 60 seconds the auto goes out, If I turn auto on...

Engine was running well but used oil because of cylinder 4 lower compression of 135. others at 155. Had good oil pressure etc and would be perfect for rebuilding if that is your thing, wasn't mine. Yours free for actual shipping costs and small delivery fee to Fedex for shipping to you. I have...

I have had my 09 200 for several years and had NO problems at all. Recently though the HVAC has been acting up. When vehicle is off for a while it forgets the temp setting and defaults to 75 on both sides. Also, upon starting the auto light is on but nothing showing in the temp windows...

Anyone have a part number for the engine harness?

I am getting ready to build up a new Toyota short block and want to streamline it as much as possible. I have most items needed to complete the transfer of parts from the old engine to the new short block.. I am keeping the old head if it checks out ok. I know I've read on here somewhere about...

I just installed drivers side fix on my LX. Easy fix. Little fiddly getting the bottom screw lined up. Solved shake. Good show!

I am in the process of designing a solid state device that will replace the clicking relay. It can be wired in permanently and will keep the ECU satisfied and "Ready" Since my state does not do inspections and since the 4.7K resister is working well I am not bothering on a solid state device;

My 09 LC has 21 LX570 wheels and tires as shown in post 12 above. The PO swapped the original 18" wheels and tires for these. Ride is great! Speedo is spot on, Odo reads 3% slow so have to correct mileage driven by 3% to get accurate MPG. I am looking on returning back to 18" wheels.
