Default new to lexus, just a few questions.

Well i traded my turbo'd 00 integra for a 93 lexus with a 2jz gte motor. Its dark green with 19in black with crome lip wheels, lowered on tein coilovers, and has intake, full 3in exhaust and a bcc. The car over all is nice except for the interior.

I need new front seats. does any other model lexus seats fit the 1st gen gs?Anyone have experience with replacement leather seat covers. (like katskin, etc.)

also im looking for replacement carpet but none of the custom mold companies even offer carpet for lexus vehicles. Does anyone know where to get it besides the dealer?

last but not least, I have a coolant problem. The over flow tank for the radiator over flows when driving normal. The car doesnt over heat though. It sounds like a blown head gasket but could it be anything else? And no I have not done a compression test yet. Ill do it this weekend.

Thank you and Im happy to join the family.

my o/f bottle does the same thing. i have a bottle from our parts car and there is some sort of tube ***'y inside the jug, it was all blocked up with gunk. could be the issue with these things, don't know for sure.

i'd be very surprised if it was a head gasket. a cooling system pressure test will tell you a lot. could be the rad cap to.
