I have 200 series 18s on my 2000 LX 470 and it's time for new tires. Since I'm a man child, I figured why not buy some new wheels while I'm already forking out a grand on the tires.
The nomads caught my eye but open to other raid or other style wheels. Nothing too aggressive bc I'm...
I bit the bullet and had a local shop do the front brakes and bearings at the same time. Want to do the rears by myself and was wondering which pads and rotors you all use and a good place to get them. I assume ill prob need emergency brake parts as well.
Bought a beige center console off an 03-07 Lx for the cupholders in the center and rear consoles. No need for rest.
Price- we are all broke trying to feed 10mpg beasts, so give what ever fits your budget. Local pick up only.

Put on a Prinsu and don't have room to store the old rack. Was on a 2000 LX470.
In fair condition but it is missing one of the caps and I rattled canned it black a year ago which turned out ok.
FREE to whoever wants to pick it up here in Charlotte. Sorry but no shipping.
Ordered the Pinsu rack for the LX and want to get a list of items needed and tips I've gathered off this forum to make the install go smoothly. Feel free to chime in if I missed anything. Happy New Year Everyone!
1. Since this is an LX, I will need to remove a trim piece on a pair of the...
When I found out my wife was pregnant, one of the first things that came to mind -outside of a healthy happy baby - was taking him on a road trip in the 100 series.
I have a 2000 470 that is finally a reliable, mechanically sound gas guzzling beast. Unfortunately, I just can't get the car seat...

Best i can find is $555 from Lexus Parts Now. Before i pull the trigger, I would like to see if anyone has another lead at a better price.
I have already tried replacing the seal route and it was not done properly which only reduced the leaking in down pours. At this point, I just...
For those that have replaced their Nakamichi systems, I wanted to see which route you ended up taking and your satisfaction on the end result.
My route:
Head Unit - Kenwood DMX906s
Infinity Kappa fronts with tweeters and crossovers
Rockford coaxial rears
Memphis 6inch sub for stock location...
Bought these Depo corners to replace my cracked oem items. Ended up finding oems on the cheap so letting these go for what I paid for them. Full disclosure, these are not oem quality but still a step up from the dirt cheap Chinese copies.
Depo clear corners with stamping on the lens and...
Got around to changing the front window regulars and cleaned the assemblies to help with the snails pace of how they used to go up. For some reason, the passenger side will go up and then automatically go down half way (maybe the jam protection function). I checked the FSM and I am not...
Pulled my stock roof rack for painting and seem to have lost the cover for the passenger front. Don't car about the color since I'll be painting it black.
I checked my bank account today and realized I haven't spent over 300 bucks on the LX for at least 3 weeks so figured it was time for another project.... No wonder i was getting the shakes.
I am planning to do a fall project where I go in a freshen up the interior of the LX. I have already...
As part of my preventative maintenance list, I went in and put in new coils and cleaned the MAF. After replacing them, I still noticed a strong gas smell when starting from cold and I would have assumed replacing these would have cleaned that up. There is also a slight vibration when in put...
I recently took the beast on a 1600 mile road trip to Florida and back. It ran perfectly outside of an issue I experienced with the ac. After running for a few hours I noticed it was struggling to cool the cabin. Luckily we drove at night so we didn't sweat the entire 10 hours.
On the...
Selling my old wheels and tires 275/70/16.
Wheels are chrome with pitting and come with lug nuts and caps. Tires have 2015 date codes with plenty of tread left. One tire has a screw but does not leak air.
I have them on Craigslist for 300 but make me an offer and I probably won't say no...
We all know that the gas pump is our beloved hundies natural, and favorite, habitat. No way around that one.
But today I noticed that via predominantly short trips and idling and my trip computer showed around 60 miles driven and almost a half a tank gone. That is just plain crazy!
On...
2000 LX River Rock on stock chrome 16s.
Picked up some early 200 series wheels off of a forum member and wanted to go over my plan of attack.
- Going with 275/65/18 yokohama geolanders A/T - I do not need E rated tires and this size is a good compromise. Tires are a good price as well.

The recent Cheap Mod thread has me thinking about switching out my steering rack bushing. After doing some research, it seems there is a different design for the pre 03 models which may make the replacement a lot harder. Is this correct?
Also, which kit to go with?
