Hi guys, I have a rc350 f sport. My car needs a new engine. I have reached suppliers but I have a problem with the VIN. My supplier is in Europe. They don't accept my VIN. My vehicle is right-hand drive. I pointed this out, but each time I was told that I had sent the wrong VIN. I need the VIN of an RC with the same specifications as my car. I would be very grateful if you could help me. My vehicle's production date is 11/2025. 2016 model year. I leave here a photo of the sticker, thank you.
I just afraid about the country and climate conditions differencies on the ecu or mechanically so I want to be sure.
You want a VIN from a car in North America that happens to have the same engine as you? Do I have that right?
When I query the VIN decoder, the target market seems to be Canada. Actually, I don't know if the problem is the country or the right-left steering wheel difference. I need to find a VIN with the same specifications, send it and try it. Making sure there is no difference in the Ecu or mechanical sense.

There is no left hand drive car like this it will have different engine harness, ECU and a bunch of other things. To replace the engine you need a long block with the same spec, all electrical components from the original engine get transferred over. Your VIN indicates Australia.
Lexus GS in North America 09/2013-09/2015 is an exact long block match. edit - for Europe exact match is Lexus RC 10/2015-10/2017. Of course there may be other years/models that work but no guarantee.

It will be cheaper to just find another car.
Bro in here cars are so expensive than the rest of the world . My car is imported here. So you are saying for europe between those production dates all the rc 350 engine fits mine ? Am i right? I got it about other years or models no guarantee. The problem is when I order the engine I dont wanna see any problem. It takes money but wasting time is my biggest anxiety.
