yeah but what im trying to say is.when i called the lexus dealer i asked for the 98 vvti part number.then i asked for the 97 non-vvti part number and they are the same 13201-46060.then the 92-96 have the same as well 13201-46040.what im trying to get to is not having to open up my motor just yet.you get me?

 

dont know about parts numbers but GE VVTi Rods are the weaker ones i have read

 

I know that's what everybody claims that they are weak.but where is the proof?wouldn't the part number be proof?

wats up im new to the lexus game thanks to edtuner lol i just trade the my civic and 4000 for a is300 the next day i got a carbon fiber hood intake and hks hi power exaust then got new tires only had them on the car for 2weeks and i got a passenger side rattle wen i go over a speed bump or any bump i dnt knw wat it is? i also have bad camber wear in the front should i get a camber kit or is there away to fix it wit out?and wen i take off slow or just drive slow the car will start poping but no check engine lite? and last my trac control wont turn off i even changed the button? sorry for all the questions just need some help thanks

 

I know it's very common to have the rattle over speed bumps. It's the brake pads. They slightly shift but it's not going to cause any problems. My brother's is300 does the same thing. It also happens when he goes in reverse, stops, and puts it in drive.

Get an alignment and they should check your bushings, tierods, etc before doing it. Is you suspension stock? And wheels too?

 

its a loud and its only wen i go over a bump and the suspension is stock and the wheels are to thanks for the help

 

Anyone know where i can get a good deal on some tires. My bro need some 215/45/17

 

I have some used ones on the west coast lol.

 

So i am going to do some maint work in prep for the NA-T. My question is i am going to be installing ARP head studs and TT headgasket do i need to deck my head before install or can i just remove and re-install ?

 

ok cl i used the search and found no recent thread.as many of you know i got stuck with the crappy SC 98 vvti.so im trying to plan out my 2010 year.and thinking of just boost the vvti i have.just swapping out the rods.and use the megasquirt.but i think my tranny is caca.to hold 500hp+.1.can i use my motor on boost w a tt auto tranny?2.do i just throw in a 2jzgte auto swap?

 

Yo try Mr, LRD as he does the tire game daily I get all my rubber shoes from him
and I use alot of rubber shoes!!!!

 

dont anybody check this thread anymore?
or should i start my own thread with question??
also let me see what you guys think should i cross over to the dark side and make my car stick??

 

Mr.//LRD FTW on rubbers

 

ecu controls shift point on our trannys so I know for sure the TT bolts up and everything its just the contol part. I know if you have a full EMS you should be fine but you wanna go with the MS and thats like a piggy back you might wanna talk more with Jordan about that since he's the MS man around these parts he is very informative


Also did anyone see my post about decking the head for TT headgasket install is it neccesary ??
