Lexus IS Forum

My name is Soren I am 16 years old and 3 weeks ago a dream came true. When I was 13 my dad told me about his buddy that had a Lexus is300 and he was looking to sell it. Now he didn’t want to just sell it on Facebook marketplace in fear that some 22 year old dude would cut it up and turn it into a beater drift car. So my dad made an agreement to buy the car for me when I turned 16. Now at the time I had no idea what the is300 was, I figured it was just a old Lexus but after some research and...

So our ground wire took a crap completely just white and corroded. And taking it off the bolt below battery box completely rusted. So the whole thing is toast. I tried to order one off eBay but the guy hasn’t sent it or replied in 6 days. where can I get a replacement one? Yes I have looked at others on eBay I found maybe 2-3 others but they looked burnt lol.

Has anyone had the issue of your door locks not fully locking or unlocking when it’s hot out. they do unlock and lock half way none have fully stopped working. If so what was your solution that isn’t replacing all of the locking actuators. Thank you

I’ve been experiencing my headlights intermittently turning off and turning back on. Tested and replaced bulbs and I’m pretty sure the headlight ballast has given out on my drivers side and is on its way out on the passenger side. What’s the oem part number for both of the ballasts? I can’t seem to find an exact part number online. Thanks!

Okay so I’m totally lost on figuring out how to work these fans i recently did a timing and water pump job on my 2001 lexus is300 and I’ve so far replaced the fans, fuses and temperature sensor and even fixed up some wiring and yet I’m still not getting power to my fans. I checked my fuses and the relays for the life of me I can’t find them there’s supposed to be 3 cooling fan relays and I’ve searched everywhere and even online I can’t find the location of them. If someone can just help me... Cooling fans not turning on

Hey y'all. Fairly new to this forum so apologies if this has been done/covered elsewhere. I've only seen it done ONCE somewhere else. And it was great, but also pissed me off cos I thought I invented it lol. I literally drew Option 2 below for a friend recently. Then not even kidding...about a week later I saw this video newly posted on YouTube and another local brother had already done it and posted it! (more on this below). Anyway, I've seen LOADS of 2JZ GE builds over the last few... 2JZ GE ALTERNATIVE Front Facing Intake Manifold Options
