I found one on ebay, but I think its pricey as hell. Maybe one of these VIPstyle vendors can get you one for a better deal.

That's the price if you wanna be boss

Try Carson's Toyota AKA L-Tune https://www.clublexus.com/forums/announcement.php?f=158 who is a sponsor here. They still need to order it from Japan too and the price is just a tinsy bit lower. If you call, make sure to mention you are a CL member.

Thanks for all the responses guys I didn't realize they were $700 so I guess I will be holding off for a while until someone sells one in the classifieds

Haha, I'm checking the Yahoo Japan auctions right now. They're going for Y42,000, which is about $400. Hmmm, I just so happen to know someone in Japan with a Yahoo account and who has access to USPS shipping. I guess I know where I'll be buying mine

Can someone clarify the UCF30/31 for me? From what I know, UCF30 is '01-03 LS?

Good find However, make sure you are getting the correct harness that goes with your car as a new one runs about $200+ which would negate any savings. I'm personally always leery on buying used electronic parts unless I know the owner be it TV, computers, etc.

So it requires the box and harness?

These are new units for sale on Yahoo auctions.

http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u22285672


Edit: That auction has the controller and harness, both new. I'm still trying to figure out the UCF30/31 difference.

This is from the Data System website. The ASC680 controller, which is the "best" controller made by Data System, uses the H-087D harness for "H12.9-15.7" which is the '01-03 models (H = Heisei years used in Japan). The '04 uses the H-087E harness for the ASC680 controller. Furthermore, the '01-03 can use the cheaper ASE663/667 controllers with the H-077D harness. It looks like an older model with fewer perks than the ASC680.

Hope this info helps someone.

BTW, in the process of purchasing that controller and harness for ~$400. Sweet!

I ordered mine from L-Tune and waiting for it coming out of Japan. I have an 04 so mine would use the H-087E harness. They asked specifically my year so they can order the correct setup. Once again, fantastic find at a great price, save 300 bones.
