Up for sale is my 1992 Lexus Sc400 with 1jzgte motor. For its age this car is in excellent condition inside out. Has a big T4 turbo kit (good for 500hp). Kit was installed by ASE mechanic and done right. Vehicle comes with front mount intercooler, HKS Blow off valve, Tial external wastegate, apexi turbo timer (not yet installed) Fuel pressure regulator, wallbro fuel pump, full 3" downpipe all the way to y pipe 2.5" dual exhaust, all steel braided lines for the turbo return, feed and for fuel. Car is also on 19" hp racing rims and Tein lowering springs.
The car was painted over a couple years back. Car has genuine 2000 front bumper, 2000 yellow fog lights, 2000 tail lights,2000 gated shifter inside, new headlights with hid's + glass high beams so they will never become discolored. Inside it has an awesome head unit with navigation, bluetooth, mp3, dvd/cd/tv player. The full interior was replaced with brand new leather skins which I paid over $800 for and so the seats are not ripped or in horrible condition like your average SC. The inside wood trim has been changed to 3m carbon fiber for a modern look. I just installed new gauges, oil pressure, air fuel and boost gauge. Steering wheel was upgraded to 2003 IS300 wheel, ac lcd for climate control was replaced as well so it's clear and clean. I have invested well over 9k into this car and am just looking to get rid of it now as I have another project + a baby on the way and cannot sink any more money into this car. A boost controller is also included but had not been installed yet. Car also has HKS fuel cut defencer. Car pulls real hard and extremely fast. Very fun to drive and gets a lot of attention. I have driven this car with this setup for well over 1 year with no problems. the turbo has no shaft play whatsoever.
Now for the bad. I had custom ac lines installed but have not put gas in yet so no cold ac at the moment. the windshield has a hairline crack but not bad at all and the sunroof may have blown a fuse or possibly needs a motor. I also went for an allignment and the guy told me i will need a passenger side control arm real soon.
The car boosts fine, set at 9psi from wastegate spring but can take a lot more. I had it at 14psi before but changed the wastegate and this one is set at 9psi.I'm selling the car as is where is. I'm asking $4700 which is an extreme loss to me but I cannot keep the car any longer as I have a baby on the way. This is a serious car for a serious person. I can arrange to have this vehicle shipped anywhere in the USA for a reasonable price. PLEASE NO JOYRIDES!

Toyota settles first wrongful death suit related to unintended acceleration
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Toyota's sales seem to have rebounded from the unintended acceleration issues from 2009 and 2010, but the automaker is far from done dealing with this situation. Following a settlement worth up to $1.4 billion for economic loss to affected vehicle owners, Toyota has settled rather than going to trial in a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from an accident in Utah in 2010 that left two passengers dead. This isn't the first case in which Toyota has settled, but it was the first among a consolidated group of cases being held in Santa Ana, CA.
According to The Detroit News, this case was scheduled to take place next month, and it was for a November 2010 incident in which Paul Van Alfen and Charlene James Lloyd were killed in a Camry when, based on findings by the Utah Highway Patrol, the accelerator got stuck causing the car to speed out of control and hit a wall; the terms of the settlement were not announced.
The article says that while Toyota will settle on some cases, it doesn't plan on settling on all of them as it still wants to be able to "defend [its] product at trial." This will probably be the case in suits claiming that software for the drive-by-wire accelerator was the cause of an accident in a Toyota or Lexus vehicle. The question of whether or not the electronic accelerator played any role in this problem has been a hot-button topic since the beginning. Toyota has issued recalls in the past to attempt to prevent unintended acceleration caused by trapped floor mats and faulty accelerator pedals, but it also says driver error was to blame in some instances.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
