I bought this to be a solid daily and it is still solid, still a daily and EXTREMELY reliable but I have a reliable truck and want to do the ...god I hate this term, missile car thing. I am llooking for a ready to drift S13 with a swap/KA-T, or atleast ALL the suspension shit handled. No trash, no stock KA cars with a set of XXRs and a Z32 fuel filter. Stuff that people are currently asking $5-5.5k for...
My car =
1993 Lexus LS400
Black in and out.
187K
Located NEAR Baltimore MD. (21030 zip)
Car runs and drives PERFECT.
AC is cold.
Suspension is simple:
Megan Coils
Relocated tension rod mounts
Drive train:
STOCK 1UZ with a fresh service. (pump/belt/tensioner/front main/etc.
Stock restricted header flanges removed and replaced with slip fits.
Dual 2.25" pipe to a 3" merge throuh some OEM 3" resonator to dual dumps.
KA 240sx trans. YEP! KA. dont ever make over 300 wheel, shut up.
XAT adapter plate and other junk to fit trans.
Toyotav8swp.com light as shit flywheel.
Exedy stage something clutch for MR2/ KA Disk.
the clutch pedal setup and relocation of all the stuff under dash is the trick to this swap and it is executed PERFECTLY! No features lost in the swap. This was done using CNC parts and factory 240sx mater cylinder....and A LOT OF WORK/FABRICATION.
Speedo does not work but is aesy to get working. I will walk you through it or do it for you. I was literally just missing a simple plug I needed when we did the swap and never got back around to it.
Diff is WELDED.
Looks:
Varrstoen TE reps in "hyper something". 18x9.5 +12/10.5 +15.
Achilles ATRs 225-40 front and 235-40 rear. Fronts still have tits! (New), rears are 50%ish.
Wings west kit. Don't hate, prob best looking kit for this body. (NOT PAINTED)
stock black paint holds it's on at 15ft.
ONE rust spot on right rear wheel well. not big enough to affect roll/pull but will need attention when ya paint it up nice.
Inside.
Fake sparco wheel. (350 deep yellow ring blah)
Fake Sparco evo seats (2) mounted solid and passing tech everywhere. (I'm 6 foot tall and love where they sit now, they unbolt and move but do not simply "slide".)
Rest of the stock interior is nice for it's age. Corner of headliner sagging, fine line cracks starting in rear seat. Console is in great shape though, as is the dash... ALL BLACK.
Did I mention the AC!!!?? Mmmmmm.
This car could not be more reliable. I drove it to Summit point for Hyperfest, drifted it with a pile of people in it and enjoyed AC in line to run.. I drove it over 3hrs each way to East Coast Bash, drove it AT ECB, drove it to the motel, drove it to get food, drove it to a real bathroom, and drove it HOME! It gets mid 20s MPG on the highway and sounds AMAZING.
I want a damn beater drift car though! I have a daily so no need for this hulk.
It was a ton of fun but now I'm either gonna sell/trade it or start spending $ on it big time (cage/stripped/M90 super charger) so I better quit now.
Yall know what I'm looking for. Don't show me Poo.
I have NO good pics but if you text me, I can send ya up to the MINUTE pics by phone.
