    GPdenver's 1999 LX470 thread

    Sad day for me, finally cut the cord and agreed to sell it to a friend. I haven't driven it in over a year, so it was time. Not my favorite car I have ever owned, but definitely the best! I'll post updates as I finish the build for him, I finally got around to doing new steering rack, tie...

    I bought it from Detroit Axle. If you send in the core you get a lifetime warranty. I've heard even OEM rebuilt racks can fail after a year, so I figured this was a good way to go. It was around $300

    Yes, compression tested good across the board

    Had some time tonight and got the snorkel on. The more and more I do to the car makes me want a larger tire again. Still chipping away and making this thing cool. Sorry the car is filthy, it snows here during the winter... Added finally finishing my front bumper to the list. I had just...

    From what I understand all of the vvti cars are interference motors. The 06 would have been one of those...

    More parts coming in. The AHC globes need replacing, but instead of ripping it out like most do, I've decided to adapt it to offroad as well as the aftermarket, and continue to get the buttery smooth, solid ride that keeps me from upgrading to a newer model. 2" ahc extenders from Japan...

    I had the lseat.com front seats installed, they look pretty darn good! I paid a local installer $500 for the install, so for $830 I'm happy. I also like the feel of the leather over the factory material. These seem more like a bmw leather, less slick than the Toyota material.

    GPdenver's 1999 LX470 thread

    Today I put in new front sway bar bushings and links. Ended up taking me longer than I thought it would because of a bolt that broke from being old and frail. Welded a nut on, it snapped again. Did that a second time broke again and it ended up needing to be drilled out. I used OEM inner...

    GPdenver's 1999 LX470 thread

    Today I did rotors at all 4 corners, new rear calipers, bled the system, and ebc green stuff pads. Hopefully these pads improve the brakes a bit, I've never loved the brakes on this car. It also was a good time to inventory what the front end needs to make it perfect. Added sway bar...

    That's the difference between you and I. It's plastic, and the weight is next to nothing. It's the same way in the 2001+ cars from the factory, just a plastic emblem glued to the airbag cover.

    GPdenver's 1999 LX470 thread

    I have yet to install the Lseat.com covers, but based on how they look in the box I'm extremely impressed with the quality for the money. They look like they are very well built. If you are super curious, I can try and coordinate for you to come take a look. Who had you talked to for a $200...

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Thanks everyone for all the love on the garage. Whats pictured are just a few of the current collection, and the crazy part is I'm planning to daily drive the LX470 this winter. I'm a young guy, but the older I get the less I want to spend/care about my daily driver. It is a 1985 Carrera...

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    I just added the same lift a few weeks ago, but double wide. Finally have the garage almost dialed in!

    100 Caught fire & gas tank venting concerns

    I happened to me on my first 1999 LC straight off of the showroom floor. It was a 3 year lease, and I owned it from 0-36k miles. It seems to be a design issue in my opinion. My issues could be worse than others as I am at 5200ft elevation, and it's not uncommon for me to run over 10000ft and...

    100 Caught fire & gas tank venting concerns

    Totally possible that Colorado started experimented with ethanol, but I have 3 cars currently converted to E85 to make more power(e85 makes the same power as 114 octane leaded race gas in my situation back to back on the dyno) that were never intended to run any ethanol, and I have never had...

    100 Caught fire & gas tank venting concerns

    I'm going to disagree with this. I had a new off the showroom floor 1999 Land cruiser in 1999, and it always shocked me how much pressure had built up in the tank every time I filled it up. Way more than normal, and way more than any other car I have owned. I'm going with design flaw. I live...
