Ahhh like the look of the air intake...will order it today. Will start there...
Start lifting the motor is not my cup of tea...maybe on an old volvo or something but not on my lovely Lexus.
I think this will be a first perfect project, next project will be a speaker repair project (that I found lot of great instructions of on in the forum).
When it´s time for next larger project, I will turn to the forum or maybe my close danish friend
Thank you guys!!!

If you search for vehicle on the cusco website ... Www cusco co jp. you have to search for the Toyota Soarer Type UZZ40. Price is 15,000¥ or 15,750¥ depending where you look and the inventory show 'X'. Imwould write them or perhaps their distributor in the UK
Good luck

I ordered from www.nengun.com but over a year ago. They might be able to locate one though.

187540A and 188540A will both fit from the looks of it. I have the 187540A and it doesn't rub against the hood insulation. It does contact the engine cover in 2 small places but some adhesive felt pads (invisible to anyone) prevent any rubbing.
They are both shown on various sites as fitting.

European cars do not have the OBD canister (something to do with US emissions I think). All I did was use the hose, but cut it so that it goes under the engine cover (looks better) and use a bolt or some kind of plug to seal the end and use a jubilee clip to secure it.
Best regards

We plugged it also but when I saw pics on the forum I got worried I did something wrong
I LOVE the sound of the intake/motor now
