Got the infamous 3 dash light issue after I got my exhaust. Both VSC lights and Check engine light. Can someone point me into the right direction? I haven't gotten under the car to locate the issue, but I'm guessing a faulty/missing O2 sensor possibly?

Also on the hunt for a decent set of 800cc injectors for my swap. Want a set of Sard injectors, but can't find any in the states and rhdjapan.com won't allow me to add them to a cart. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The car looks super clean right here in my opinion the plasti dip made it look like a cheap maxima from the pic. Hope you find a good bodyshop where you're at man.

Lol @ cheap maxima.....

PIcs didn't really expose the many flaws in the factory paint. There were scratches that were beyond repairable all over the car which looked very tacky during the day. In addition to that, the job on the left rear quarter panel and trunk that was done to repair damage from a wreck didn't match the car at all with both color and body work. Left quarter panel sticks out a few inches further than the right. Makes the rear wheels look like they're different offsets. The dip was just a temporary fix to buy me some time financially until I finish the motor, suspension, and audio. I do wish I would've went with another color with the dip. That Lexus electric blue has my name on it....

Well if you're in H-town check out AutoTech Collision. Awesome work and they can pretty much do anything. I had my last car painted there 9720 Westpark Dr, Houston, TX 77063

If it's dip, is that the anthracite grey? That's the color I want to spray on mine. Looks good!

No I have a 2jz-gte I'm building and swapping into it. Guess I should've posted this.....
Just collecting parts at the moment. Waiting on Tial BOV x wastegate, SAARD 800cc injectors, Map ECU 3, and Mishimoto radiator/trans cooler so I can do the swap.




On another note, anyone know how I can change the title of my thread? It was initially supposed to be added to the thread of another build as just a post, but since I was using my iphone and didn't know what I was doing, it started badly titled thread..... HELP?!
