Nice touch with the brace on the wastegate! Been struggling with my PAS cooler, your oil cooler has given me an idea not sure why i never thought of putting it there lol Looking forward to seeing it at JAE

Looks really tidy.

Really good job buddy... want to do mine Wink been putting it off for months

Well a little update as i have been slacking on working on the car!!!

Been having a weird noise from the gearbox/clutch for a few months so i finally fitted my solid 1ggte flywheel and new clutch and rebuilt. Unfortunately the noise was still there.

This then led me to believe maybe it was my gearbox so Santa got me a one!!! lmao

Just stripped it all down again and doing a few other jobs along the way. Then hit me spigot bearing!!!!!! had a look and low and behold it was knackered!!! So i have ordered a new one and is on its way to me now thanks to MattLaw.

Took sump off as there was a small leak so i can redo that while gearbox is off.

Noticed that the front crank case oil seal is leaking slightly from when i had the crank case pressure so will need to address this!!

Will be fitting my new LSD just wire brushing and painting before i fit that.

Fitting all new ball joints and my LS400 front brakes

TRD short shifter when i pick up from pats .

Also there is a few modifications i shall not be giving away just yet!

Pictures will follow tomorrow

What do you have to do to fit them breaks mate?


Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 02-12-2023

You have to get the figs adapters same as the supra brakes mate, and then either shave a little off the bottom of the caliper, or run Rca spacers so you don't hit the steering arm
