Toyota100: The Toyota Century Forum

What's in the Box?! As an experiment, I wanted to see if it's possible to get a factory wheel from Japan. No problem so far, just took a little time and shipping. https://i.postimg.cc/PrkcktSc/temp-Image4-Jjm0q.avif Well protected. https://i.postimg.cc/RVV7tyhh/temp-Image-AOpgor.avif Eventually I wi...

New pan from Japan!



Side profile:



Inside before I blew away the dust.

Time to replace the lower oil pan.

Here's the old pan, with the grey FIPG. That's from the factory, correct?




Looking up into the engine. The oil pump and chain.

Fresh pan from Japan! Cheaper than a lot of the Lexus ones. https://i.postimg.cc/nLrX3f7S/temp-Image1-XU3v-X.avif Larger box required for shipping :lol: https://i.postimg.cc/DZV7L9cX/temp-Image-JNEl-Ax.avif Not completely flat. The larger side faces front, towards the engine. https://i.postimg.cc/yx...

Picture taken looking up on the exposued transmission. I removed the filter before I took the picture.

It has a light coating of oil from factory. https://i.postimg.cc/J...

Time to replace the transmission pan! Old pan. There is a spot for 4 magnets but mine only had 3.

Great news!

Changed both front height sensors and it's fixed!

Now I just need to do a fine adjustments so it will sit level across all 4.

That's what i'm thinking.

The front is only off balance by less than .5 inches.

The rear is constantly off by 1.5 inches or more.

I changed both rear sensor units, but no change.

Currently working on changing the fronts.

I changed the compressor and both valve units.

What else could it be?

YouTube video with Aiko unveiling the SUV convertible.

I know they made a parade version of the sedan for the emperor.

I wonder if this will be a one-off or merely supplement their offerings?
