Hi - I've not been on for a while - sorry to everyone who posted as I didn't get round to replying. Let me know if you still need the parts you were after. I've got a wooden steering wheel and Satnav unit currently on ebay. I've still got most of the parts as I stopped actively trying to sell them when the lockdown started! Hope you're all well.

No worries. Ariel has gone. Everything else bar the calipers is availible.

Hi--the exhausts I'm selling are custom tailpipes to replace the backboxes. You need to cut your backboxes off and these pipes clamp on in place. £70 for the pair and they're in great condition. The rest of the system itself isn't great as the cat flanges are blowing and the backboxes are missing. I'm on the Wirral

This is what the modified airbox sounds like.

You can see them top left of the pic - the main pipes are stainless and polish up nicely. The rest of the sections are mild steel and incorporate steps to increase bore. Includes custom made brackets to fit to the standard mounting points for the backboxes using the standard exhaust rubbers.

Yes it's fine - £20

Couldn't edit my original post so I've quoted a random one and added prices roughly based on completed listing on eBay.

All on the Wirral.

1998 with 130k. I'm not sure why it happened but the cambelt was removed twice due to a faulty new waterpump so it could be just the fact it came off and on a bit and was unsettled from its 22 year slumber. 'If it ain't broke ' is my new mantra.

I'm hoping to sell them with the wheels as they are perfect for the SC430 wheels - if I sell the wheels separately, though, I'll let the spacers go too. Are you interested in the wheels, too? The exhaust is a custom back box delete setup that sounds great. You just need to cut your back boxes off and clamp these to the pipe. I made it a non-welding modification due to lack of a mig. You need to cut two cutouts in the bumper - I'll upload some pics. Can't help with fitment - I'd presume they're the same?

Looking for £100 for the wheel. Probably about £15 postage I'd imagine.

Very sad conclusion to my Lexus ownership. Long story short - cam pulley sheared off and the engine is dead. I've spent the day stripping parts off it and will be scrapping the shell in the next few weeks. I have taken off: Wooden steering wheel Wooden gearnob Grey sun visors Grey rear view mirror Silver mirrors Sat nav unit Custom exhaust JBrady modded airbox All lights (fronts tinted with removable film) Wood gear surround Wood electric window panels/ashtray Almost immaculate unused diamond cut spare wheel SC430 alloys with nearly new matching Goodyear tyres Hubcentric Japspeed spacers for the wheels Coil packs Might be more bits - can't remember! Car's still here if there are any bits I've not mentioned but you'd like. It's silver. Cheers!

Thanks mate - I'm afraid I don't have anywhere near that kind of budget. Hence not being able to repair it at the moment. I'm going to try and do it over time to keep costs down and get a run around in the meantime.

Apologies for fueling the flames. Done nearly 20k Iover the last 2.5 years and loved every mile. Pretty gutted and easily wound up as a result. Thanks to everyone who has helped.

Agreed. I normally stay out of it but given recent circumstances I'm a bit ticked off. Apologies. Over and out.

I honestly feel like this might not even be sarcasm at this point. Anyway, it's a vegetable drink. You should try it sometime.

***** almighty. Using power isn't the same as going over the speed limit. You can get a 1.0 micra to break the speed limit. You write as if your engine is full of carbon deposits, is it?

Unless you remove the backboxes in which case it pounces at a nano-second into a suitably roaring lion. And so on. I think some of the slipper and pipe brigade on here should be buying themselves electric cars. They're very quiet in case you weren't aware. You can leave the v8s to those that appreciate them then. 😂👍 https://tse1.mm.bing.net/th?id=OGC.d028ce216f6b11b46240b449fbbbd6af&pid=Api&rurl=https%3a%2f%2fmedia.giphy.com%2fmedia%2f3ohjV9dp72oWsOP3mo%2fgiphy.gif&ehk=RGxvmFeKjzlC7tu4tCQYdA

Not in my ownership - but there was an intermittent rev issue when I bought it which cleared up after an oil change and few miles of driving. I had the cambelt off twice as the first waterpump was faulty but that's only thing that's been done.

Why does every thread on here descend into people getting upset about modifications or moaning about never using power. You fellas know what a v8 is at all? I've looked after this car impeccably and regardless of whether or not it receives a battering (it doesn't) it should be able to cope with no issues.

I see

The mk3 looks great and is a great car. The mk4 is a better car.

How do I contact Paul? I can't find a website or ebay page etc.
