Sparkystav Nice mate,

Is there a reason you went for this over the one vibra technics offer?

Vibra technics is a very good product but there is a good reason that made me hesitate. My engine mounts are vibra technics and initially there were significant vibrations at idling which it was a bit annoying, but now after done a few thousand km the vibrations have dissapeared and the feeling and performance is still perfect. Therefore I wanted to avoid again any possible chances of vibrations or transmission noises in the cabin. Also I did not know anyone who might have used the vibra technics gearbox mount and write a review.

Another reason is that I purchased the TRD gearbox mount at a very good price.

This is great. I just found out there is a member in tezzaworld who has fitted vibra technics gearbox mount. You could ask him if he is happy.

Finally the TRD spark plugs arrived today. Now need to fit them this Saturday together with the Power Enterprise timing belt and a new water pump. Yes the water pump needs to be changed after 140000km. There is a small cooling fluid leakage from the water pump.

After 3 years it was time to change to the tyres. I ordered a set of Yokohama Advan Neova AD08r tyres. I am excited to fit them on the car and test them in the track!

I got a few more parts for the Lexus today. I managed to get hold on a rare TRD fuel cap (discontinued) and a TRD oil cap. Pictures shows also a TRD radiator cap which I did not buy from the seller.
