Been out to some local meets with the lex and meet some cool peeps. thanks for the compliments! havn't done too much to the lex recently, however it is converted to true twins now. couldnt be happier, i must say i do like it better than the sequential set up. pulls better. my new oem balljoints and tie rods just came in so i'll probably be putting those on along with my daizen control arm kit soon. i'll let you guys know if that will finally get rid of my slight 65+mph vibration.

As far as the blinking lights, you can try the EC+T1 reset in the Diag box by the ecu, do a search for resetting VSC lights.

Otherwise did you just add fluid to the trans or have you done a fluid flush?

Thank u 99 gs3 for ur feed back so the car has not moved since I did the swap. My friend is a jdm importer so the motor came from his shop and he actually drove the aristo in japan before he broke it down to ship to the u.s. he said car Was running good out there. I still changed out the obvious spark plugs fluids and all that except for tranny fluid I just added to it since the oil looked Clean and new it was low but that didn't fix the problems also forgot to mention one of the o2 sensors is missing on my down pipe could that be the reason for the sluggish operation? I've dealt with american cars a lot and the o2 sensor that is not connected does not affect the cars operation but I don't know about toyota.... once again thanks any feed back appreciated

You ask about missing a o2 sensor. The GTE only has two, one is pre-cat and one post-cat. You need the pre-cat one, but you can do without the post-cat sensor with no problems..
