Hi, I'm trying to sell a used Joe Z exhaust system in the Marketplace and need someone to vouch for me. I've been a member since I've purchased my ISF new in 2012 but haven't been that active on the forum until recently since I've retired. With the exception of the transmission service that you commented on I've done the bolt-on work to my car; i.e. PPE catless headers, and PTS exhaust, R&R's UCA's, USRS, Motor Mounts, Tune, AOS, SS brake lines, hi-temp brake fluid flush, F&R brakes, plugs, etc. Started tracking the car in 2020 with JTI and so far have done RA once, and AMP 3 times, and am schedule for AMP again at the end of April. Would be nice to see another ISF out there as I've been the only Lexus at the events I've been to. Anyway, I would appreciate if you would consider vouching me, and maybe we could meet one day. Thanks, Michael

I rode with Danny almost daily from 1976 to 1978, pretty much before he started keeping a log. I occasionally trained with Tom and even went on a ride with Carol once or twice. I also met Davis Phinney when he came to Pittsburgh to train with Tom, long before he was a pro. I have an old picture of Davis from the 1978 Pennsylvania road trials somewhere - we rode a course near Trexlertown. I also raced with Matt Eaton in the ACA's weekly crit for some years. His dad beat me one time in a road race at North Park and gloated about it for a while. Thanks for the link!

I can't remember if you were friends with Tom or Danny. I saw this and thought you should see it, if you haven't already. Cheers. http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/p...s/201805060150

Lance,
I have the pictures from the photoshoot. They turned out pretty good. I didn't have your cell num, to send you the link. Shoot me a text and I will send them over. Also, I wanted to pick your brain. Have you ever heard of or experienced any issues with the oil pump or oil pump pulley on the F? I noticed squeaking like a bird chirping upon start up and pulling off. Its intermittent during idle. Sounded like the tensioner pulley but upon further inspection everything is tight, but I found the pulley on the oil pump has play in it. Could this be my culprit, and if so if that pulley changeable without changing the oil pump? oh yea my number is 803-290-0863

Lance,
can you move my thread to the correct forum, its currently in suspension brakes 1st gen, thought I wan in 2nd gen
thank you

Lance,

I am wondering if the comments made in my for sale thread (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2ge...-for-sale.html) constitute a "Bump" as defined in the for sale rules. Just want to make sure I do not exceed the maximum of 10 bumps in my efforts to promote the sale. Thanks.

Ken.

Hi lobux, I hope you are still active here thought you could give me advice on oil. I have always used Castrol syntec 5-30 oil in my 2007 IS350 & want to use it in my 2015 GS350 here in SoCA. Manual calls for 0-20. Any advice??

lobuxracer,
Is it possible to reorganize the IS classifieds in a manner that would separate the ISx50 from the ISF sales? It's becoming endlessly frustrating trying to peruse for ISF parts amid the 4,000 ISx50 threads.

Or, would it be possible to simply include a drop-down menu (and require the choice) that would specifiy which model (i.e. 250, 350, or F) the poster is representing? This could also help expedite the "shopping" process.

Thanks,
Jim

Hey Lobuxracer. I also sent you a PM about alignment. Can you please help me out.?

Hey Lobuxracer, I sent you a PM. Really looking forward to hearing back from you. It's alignment related.
