I'm not going to BS anyone here; I've been here a long time. This is my project car, at this time I have no money, no time, and I just had to spend
3k on surgery for my dog, and she now might have some internal bleeding ...more $ hurray! I do not really want to sell my car, but I am going to.***Dog is Fine** :-) Updated june 08
I purchased this car in 2001 with 76k miles on it. It was, and still is a clean title car. (I believe I am the 3rd owner but that might be wrong I don't remember now)

The car runs well, I change the oil every 2500-3500 miles
Power steering pump was replaced at 96k miles
Power steering high pressure hose replaced at 122k miles
Power steering rack was replaced at 132k miles
Main drive pulley replaced at 100k miles
Plugs, wires (dated 2003), rotor, cap replaced at 125k miles done in (2004)

This is a Quote from Motorheaddown about the "5-speed" tranny I bought from him.
"The original tranny was replaced at 23K miles with this one. I removed the one for sale when the car had 55k miles to install the 6-speed. You can use the VIN to get a maintenance report from Lexus: JT8JZ31CXS0020309"
This W58 (5speed)Tranny had approx 32k miles on it, and I'm sure Scott can verify this if needed :-)
-Clutch and all was replaced at 110k when the tranny was being replaced.
All bushings replaced except the rear tops Daizen Polyurethane bushings
(I still have them) Car really doesn't make any sounds over bumps ... sometimes when it's really cold out I do hear it though. Generally not much if any. 125k
Daizen Sport Tuning Sway Bars 125k
18x8 front 18x9 rear Moda R6 rims
Eibach Toyota Supra Pro springs 125k
KYB Shock Absorbers - AGX Adjustable 125k
Twin Turbo front brakes with drilled brembo's 125k
Rear stock pads replaced at the same time.
SS brake lines all around 125k
I also have 2 new O2 sensors that I never installed (no indication that the current O2's are bad.)
-car has 97-00 updated front (no fogs)
-Fuel filter replaced at some point between 120-130k
-Front spindle studs replaced with extended studs. (10x rear not installed included)
I always monitored MPG, although I was horrible at actually logging it. I would usually get between 16.9-23.4mpg
Stereo:
Kenwood KDC-X717 head unit
Orion Xtreme 500.4
Front speakers Boston Pro Series 6.5
Rear speakers Boston Acoustics RC620
2x 10" MTX 8000's (Powered by some Kenwood amp as the Orion for the subs died and I never got around to replacing it under warranty)
khd-c710 music keg (doesn’t' seem to be working atm the cartridge seems fine, could be a lose connection)
Known Issues:
-Old Leather cracked/tears Some tears in front seats.
-At the moment the windshield was hit with a rock, it and needs to be replaced eventually (I can probably have this done through my insurance for free before selling the car to who ever)
-Differential just started leaking I caught it the day it happened. From taking a quick look it's the driver’s left side seal that is out. (I can replace/rebuild the differential I just don't much time, although I realize I might have to in order to sell the car.)
- Some minor dents scratches, I'd say for pretty normal for a 92.
-Fan shroud could be replaced
-Needs new rear tires soon. (I will need to check the front, but they should be ok)
18x8 front 18x9 rear Moda R6 rims some curb rash I think the rears are clean.
--Broken antenna
--Windows are not rolling down(could be stuck haven't rolled them down for 2yrs-ish)
--Power steering pump works fine, but should be replaced soon. slight oil leak.
--Starter contacts should be replaced.
I've spent a lot of time with this car, and I truly enjoy it. So maybe my slight attachment is throwing off what I’d like for the car.

Hey Bro,
Hope everything is alright where you are. Ya the fires are insane! One of my friends parents house is ash now. My parents had to get out this morning at 4am. Will see what happens. Hopefully the wind lets up, and they are able to get this under control.
FYI.. the car is in the shop. I'm having the differential fixed, and I'm going to pick it up tomorrow. [/SIZE]
A lot of people interested in the car, and wanting to fly out and drive it back home.
