1991 Celsior, my new baby.
Hello everyone, I just wanted to say hey and introduce myself.
I just picked up a nice 1991 Celsior from a local dealer here in Vancouver, turned out to be a great buy and an amazing find. She only has 20,000km and it shows. She has been sitting for a while but still runs like a top, im working on replacing everything filter and fluid wise as i can in these next few weeks. Ive taken her out on a few rides and wow such an amazing car! She'll be insured for good after the weekend .
Heres a few quick shots:
After a nice clay bar and wax
Clean engine bay
Awesome JDM navi system ( obviously doesnt work but it sure looks cool )
Air suspension , and no the bags dont leak
And this... is my favorite one
I hope to learn alot from this forum and its members, and i'd also love to contribute in any way i can Im learning very quickly that these are amazing cars, the thing has more options that a loaded civic we sell at my dealership it just blows me away the technology put into these tihngs! and in 91 ! Wow.
Well, thanks for reading my post and ill see ya around

And bag wise... Im worried about them failing so there will be no dumping for me , but i do have a full aftermarket bag system in the works for this girl. Just waiting on a settlement to come through , then she will get a nice facelift . For now she stays stock

[QUOTE=Lavrishevo;7357381 Mind if I ask how much she cost you?[/QUOTE]
I was wondering as well.
Also anyone know how the value of a celsior compares to the value of an equal ls400?

The shift selector and steering wheel look like a 12,000 mile example with none of the usual wear. Looks like some one has swopped out the fender pole for a stubby.
Even looks like the radio LCD is still OK.
Never seen a retrofit Toyota Sat Nav.
I thought my 94 Celsior was low mileage at 38,000 when I bought it 6 years ago.
Good find for sure.
Mine just after I bought it.

Thats just the emergency shift release so when the car is not on you can shift out of park

Oh, and i forgot. The bumper pole actually has a distance sensor in the base of it, which beeps faster and faster the closer you get to an object . Kind of like a parking sensor , a sweet little bonus. I beleive it is JDM as i found it in the back of my manual as a 30,000 Yen additional option .
And i had one question, my celsior is a "UCF-11 " frame ? not a 10, and i was wondering if the rear wheel bearings on my Celsior would be the same as an ls400 ? Im going to have to get the rear passenger side done soon and i was worried about parts being transerrable over from car to car .
thanks!
