    My 92 ES300/Windom 5-speed

    Hey everyone,

    As most of u know I bought a 92 Lexus ES300 5 speed for $1,700. If u want pics, click on my cardomain link on my sig below. Yes, I still have my corolla too and plan to keep it 4 awhile, and figure out what to do when I finish doing the repairs to my Lexus. My corolla still runs but for some reason oil disappears from the engine and changed the oil 1500 miles ago. Since it got 245k on the clock, suspecting between the lines of leaking oil pump/seals, or its time for a rebuild. Car is not smoking and it runs fine at least but checking constantly to make sure I dont blow it up. Wish me luck.

    No drop and rims yet. I'm deciding whether I should rebuild both engine and transaxle assemblies or just replace all the gaskets due to the cracked rear valve cover:mad:. Need to inspect the head to make sure it's alright. If its cracked, I'm going to rebuild it w/new toyota/lexus parts.

    My biggest plans is to restore the car to showroom status better that what the previous owners cared for. Then the mods will follow.
