Thanks for the info ProLex Is the same year Supra vvti ? 1994 as I have been offered some Supra mk4 non turbo injectors really cheap and I am on a budget, a very tight one, as work has been very bad, but i love the GS and want it back on the road running right asap My problem is that cylinder 5 injector seems to not work now and again (more not than is) and it is screwing my emmisions and makes it lumpy The head gasket went on number 5, I fixed that a while ago, ran brill for a while, now missfiring, and now compression is great and spark all checks out as do the valves etc this injector is causing me grief, i swapped the injector to number 1 cylinder and the fault moved with it so I dont suspect the loom I seem to be only able to find it stocked by Lexus themselves who want a fortune for an injector, I reckon if I had to change all 6 at their price I may as well scrap the car for bits and get another one, which would be a shame as the car is immaculate and has all the NO2 kit fitted (which i cant afford to run at the moment either LOL)

Hi everyone, does anyone have a part number book or knowledge of Injector specs will Supra Injectors be the same as GS300 Injectors 2JZ GE engine in both will the earlier Supra Injectors work as well ? Thanks hope someone can help me here

Hi all been ages since I have been online, hope everyone is OK due to work and all sorts of stuff needed doing I haven't had much chance to drive the Lexus for a while, mostly down to being a bit poor, but things are better now so it is on the road again I now have a missfire, running on sort of 5 and a half cylinders Number 5 cylinder is def the problem (pull off spark plug lead test) New plug fitted, still the same Injector seems poorly and fuel cleaner makes no difference at all Removed injector and swapped it around missfire moved to the new cylinder so seems almost certain injector is screwed You don't wanna know what the main stealers want for an injector !! Has anyone a source for injectors at good price ? Has anyone any used injectors laying around (maybe having upgraded theirs) ? Are Supra Mk4 injectors the same ? Are 1JZ-GTE injectors the same ? as I can get some of them cheap Help please

Ignition stuff is all the same as Supra, it even has the supra part number under the lexus sticker, but surprisingly the little sticker does add a few ££ to the cost, There are after market lead sets from splitfire and a few others I got mine from here http://www.vehicle-electrics-online.com/ig...l-products.html give them a call or drop them an email,,, very helpful people

Ahhhhhhhh thanks Steve I will remember that one, I know Station View as I was born in Mutley, although dont live there anymore Hope he understands GS as well

OK here is a cunning ploy that is more cunning than a cunning plan written by Mr Fox who is professer of cunning at cunning university (Disclaimer::Half of this below is perfectly legal, the other bit is marginally legal, the other bit is bending the rules) the rest is up to your conscience Set yourself up as a self employed shopping and travel consultant Get VAT registered Claim all the VAT you pay on fuel, repairs, leasing, and running your car for your business needs, in other words going shopping or travelling You spend a few minutes every evening writing your journal on your findings, in the forlorn hope that your self employed book on shopping and travel will one day find a publisher You will have to charge VAT on any self employed earnings you have, but as there is nothing in the law that says you cannot be employed and self employed at the same time, you can legally do that :duh: Of course your self employment will make a massive loss, but not all self employed or even major companies make a profit And you can reclaim all that lovely VAT

I used to practice it aswell back in France, I even created a website for it : www.tircampagne.org I have been practicing archery from 1993 to 2006 where my involvment in other stuff did not let me enough time for it My other main activity is a casting agency for car events in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Netherlands We have had a few invites to go and shoot field in France, but not had a chance to get there when a competition was on,,, so far Our club has German Honorary members and are hoping to get to Nuremburg to shoot their competition next year, as they came to ours last August If you get down this way come and bring your bow and have a few goes on our practice course

The other love in my life is Field Archery Great fun and it obviously involves archery but unlike what most peoples idea of archery is, i.e. shooting at big round targets on dead flat ground at set distances, Field Archery involves shooting not in flat fields but in woodlands, uphill, downhill, over rivers, down cliffs Unlike target archery where the targets are all at set distances, and all nicely marked out, the targets we shoot can range from field mouse size a few yards away to elephants over 140 yards away, and a large part of teh skill is in judging the distance so you get the arrow trajectory right and we don't shoot at pretty roundel targets we shoot at either 2D pictures or life size rubber animals They are not real animals and we are not hunters, nor inhumane, it purely simulates the skills of old type archery Info on my club is at www.toadhollowarchers.org

Maybe a silly question but is your arial coming up OK Mine was sticking in the down position and although all the lights were on, no sounds from the stereo Then hit a bump ,,, ariel unsticks,,,,,,, very loud music suddenly,,,, scares the crap out of you I couldn't work it out for a while as I assumed the arial had gone up when I switched on the radio, as it was always up when i got out of the car

sorry to hear that mate I pranged mine a while back and did a deal with the insurance company, so always worth haggling with them I had a ding in the wing, which would have pulled out (as I did later) A missaligned bumper which I took off and just rehung in the right line And a broken foglight (which I still haven't replaced) The nice insurance man gave me nearly £800 in lieu of repairs to go away and be quiet, and I didn't need to spend any cash just a few hours to put it back together in the right places OK it cost me my no claims, but that had gone anyway with the bloke I hit, allegedly my fault although someone did tell me he accelerated from the kerb as I pulled out but what can you prove Anyway glad you are OK and seems no one was hurt apart from your pride, I know the feeling

Think yourself lucky you haven't got a Fiat Punto Lose the master key and you have to replace all the door locks, the ECU and a whole load more Basically if your Punto is older than 6 years it is cheaper to scrap it than buy a new master key

Hi Is yours a Mk 1 GS300 ? if so I don't know if they had limp home mode that early If it happened very suddenly is there smoke from the exhaust ? blue / white / black or is that normal ? Was it raining or had the car washed very very recently ? Have you looked under the bonnet to see if anything has "fallen off" or become disconected ? Check all the vacuum hoses are on, some of these are hidden on the rear RH side of the engine, and under the inlet manifold looking from the front RH side Check all the electrical connectors and unplug the connectors and reconnect them (seems like a thousand of the little ****s) Disconect the negative on the battery and leave it alone for a few minutes to reset the brain Reconnect the battery and try it again and it may have cleared the fault

Cool well done and no doubt we shall see each other driving around one day the way it is going we will have a soutwest meet sooner rather than later

Hell, we could have a Devon / Cornwall meet if you all came down the same time I am close to you Fugu so probably wave at each other some time when I am visiting the father in law in Plympton Was on Marsh Mills yesterday at 5 pm, what a lot of fun that is ,,,,,,,,,,, not Have you ever seen traffic lights change as quick as they do ?

My son sells 50 pence pieces on Canadian Ebay gets them from the bank when a new edition 50 pence piece comes out, checks them as being good quality, amazing how many types of 50 pence pieces there are issued in a year sells them for £3.50 + postage to coin collectors in Canada He is happy They are happy We think they are bl**dy stupid They like their collection up to date No harm done is there
