JGS 300

hello,

i have a 1994 gs300 and i am looking for a bodykit. I can find loads in America but no one in England seems to do them

Does anyone know where i can get a complete bodykit??

You are probably out of gas as the a/c pump will not kick in when low on gas so as not to damage it.

Try getting it regassed at an appropriate garage.

This will tell you if the a/c works and if there are any leaks.

Hey,

check for a air lock. gs300's mk1 are hard to bleed coz the hose at the back of the engine is higher than the rad.

this can cause a loss of water and bubbling in the expansion bottle go to a proper garage and get a coolant change this cured my problem.

Hi Mohammed,

I have a gs300 mk 1 had a very simular problem, was topping up the expansion tank with water every 4-5 days. The heater was always cold too.

I had a coolant change done and it cured all the water problems. The cause was an air lock in the heating system. At the back of the engine there is a water hose coming out of the car it also has your temperature valve on it, check this works when you alter the temp control on the dash, also Gs300's can be hard to bleed because this hose is higher than the radiator. although yours sounds like a head gasket with the oily water you can easily check these other points. Hope this helps ;)

looking for a donor car to be used as spares for my 1995 gs300

I was just wondering if this club goes to any of the car shows like "the fast show" or "trax" etc etc and has a stand

I go to shows with the club im in at the moment and apart from a few is 200's i havent seen any Lexus cars or stands

I was thinking it would be a good idea to have a stand as Lexus is not represented at any show

Hi,

Most Lexus dealers will give a 10-20% discount on parts when you mention the LOC and ACLex the official dealer on the forum also does this with a delivery service if required.

Your main source of parts is ebay both UK and USA and also have a look at the clubs parts section where members often sell customising parts at reasonable prices.

Thanx Steve,

I have looked at eBay and various other traders and i found the best for value, parts and time is Motor Parts Direct I paid £84.65 for an o/s/f upper wishbone

. I was quoted £388.00 by Lexus even with discounts for clubs. I checked other parts with Motor Parts Direct and they can do most parts for my car even if I do to wait a day for delivery.

I have a 1995 Gs300 which I am in the process of Customising

I really need to find a place that does new original or patent parts for my car

Lexus main agents are way too dear for me

Appreciate your help
