Recently did a timing belt on my wife's 2006 4Runner (2UZ) and it is the AWD Sport Edition which came factory with the A750F 5 Spd. I had heard somewhere that there was a way to adjust the line pressure or the firmness of the shifts without any modification whatsoever. I made a point to adjust...
Just recently installed a Ironman front bumper with a Bandland APEX 12K winch, and then finishing up the refreshment of the front suspension, including new UCA, new bushing for LCA/AHC shock and so on. Having gone through some of those existing AHC/TB posts, I realize I may have to deal with...
I’m considering options for converting my HZJ105 auto to a 1HD-T or FTE. I have three options. 1/1HD-T from a manual vehicle, can/how hard is it to move the TPS over to a manual pump? 2/ A pranged 1HD-FTE manual complete car. I’ve heard cross members and hole in floor pan don’t line up. How...
I just picked up my first 100 series after ~2 years of off and on searching and lurking on various forums. Its an unmodified 2007 LX470 with 268,000 miles. I am located in Knoxville, TN. Hope to meet some members in the area!
Some of the good: All miles were in the south and has absolutely zero...
Another member on the forum board here did an Elate supercharger install. I reached out and he answered my questions and followed up with Travis at Elate.
Today all but two parts have come it. Have enough to get well started into my project. I am sure more stuff will be needed as I get into...

Some of you know me in person already, but around here I've been mostly lurking for years, and I figured that now's the time to change that! As I move on to my second 100 series, I'd like to get things a bit better documented for both my own sake and others this time around. I'm very excited to...
So my 2007 has 235k. Second owner 3 years about. Put 35k on it, including to Panama and back to SF Bay Area, solo. Well with dog.
So i decided to look at and OEM replace PCV related stuff. Guess what? That was original, tough as nails to unscrew valve, parts were oily. Hoses cracked and broke...
Got an odd one…
Right turn signal turns permanently on when temps are below freezing. Had the first day below 32 yesterday here in CO. Right signal came on and the front and rear signals are stuck in bright.
This hasn’t happened since below freezing weather last year and I was really hoping...
I am late to the idea of owning a series 100 Lexus lx470. Dr buddy has one he may sell me if I want it. It’s an 06 with 288k miles on it. He says fully serviced. The idea is that I can use it as a tow car behind my 40’ diesel motorhome. Coach is white as is the lx470. Am I crazy to...
After I sold my white HDJ101, I instantly started to miss it. I really wanted to try to get one with a manual transmission, but had a hard time finding one through Japanese auction. I then came across a super clean rig (still auto but with only 91k km), and decided to pull the trigger. However...
I’ve removed a bunch of the interior trim, headliner and panels from my 98 LX470 for a few reasons. Mainly to address some leaks. One of the leaks comes from the upper rear quarter glass it leaks between the glass and the seal. There is something attached on the glass and the water leaks around...
An affordable AHC globe:
Stumbled upon it looking for other stuff.
I have an 05 LC so no need for it, not sure if it's been posted before, but here it is..
Alright so Project 250 had tundra seats thrown into it when I got my hands on it. I put some rough LC seats into the truck to get me by but the idiot cut the truck side harness in the floor. I have since found out that 1. LC seats are wired differently and 2. I suck at wiring. Due to this the...
I have been wondering if a Tundra aftermarket bumper will fit up on a LC100 with little mods. Has anyone done this before? With the price for an 100 series bumper, I'd like to find some sort of alternative. I haven't found a welded kit type bumper for the 100 series even after several hours of...
As my title says, my engine is total loss (230000 mile vvti 2006). I was driving at the highway doing 50mph when my car started shaking and stuttering. Pulled the car aside and waited for roadside help (Germany). They started it and it sounded horrible so quickly turned off and pulled out the...
