Bwahahahahah- did that a few times back in the day with FD RX-7 parts, forgot all about ever doing that. Scummy, yes, but whats a poor college student to do when all money gets spent on go fast parts and a coilpack goes bad....

That's probably one reason why many dealers in my area or in PA, i guess, won't let you test drive any cars on your own. Dealers will sit in with you..

The 250 engine 'V-Bank Cover' as Lexus calls it, does not fit the 350 or vice versa; the mounting points are unique for each car.
