would anyone know if a 92-95 sc400 intakes fit 89-93 ls400's?

absolut

nope, but you might be able to modify one to fit.

yeah i was just wondering since they use the same motor but due to the big difference body wise customizing it would be the way to go. will it be hard to do so? would it be worth doing?

absolut

meh, intakes for our cars are pretty much for sound and looks. They do nothing for performance, especially since no one makes a heatshield for LS's. It's up to you if you want try it. I run a K&N cone filter setup on my car. It sounds great but that's it.

i see...thanks for the information...i'll just leave it stock since it dont make a big difference...good to know that i could use the money for something else lol...thanks again

Apparently Lextasy has an Injen intake with a heatshield for the LS400:

I'm not sure why the website address has SC430 in it when the description describes it being for the LS400.

haha they just gona give you the sc400 intake. i bought mine too thinkin that it was for my 95 ls400. but its chillin does the job lmaoo. i clean it every 3k miles with my oil change. injen doesnt make an intake for any ls400 period :]. the intake i have is pretty dinky tooo im not sure how well its suppost to work out but hey at least it didnt make my car slower lmao. you should do the kn air box thingy that everyone else is doing to their ls400. i think that is way better. and you can actually pass smog lmao

lextasy isnt a very respected name around here, search on it, i wouldnt trust them with a lugnut, much less an intake >.>

i was wondering about lextasy too...their site looks kind of tacky although alot of people mention it for simple stuff like lights and other interior parts...thanks PD

jdmsole06

yeah i thought so since both are v8's...ill just do the air box thing since it would be cheaper and more reliable i guess...thanks PK

save yourself the money. I just bought a K&N replacement filter, moded the filter box myself...removed the square plastic cap on the right inner fender right next to the filter box. Now the intake is sucking cold air from the fender and stock ram air snorkle. Nice deep rumble when you step on it...silent when you are cruising...looks complete stock!

Thanks 93LSexy! i will go and try that this weekend. Thanks again
