@@HammerWrench that's great! These cars are tanks!

@@HammerWrench thanks for subscribing! The support really helps out

@@TimBradley-ty5mh sorry to hear that. Another thing that occurred to me after uploading this was that I might have been counting the turns incorrectly or not doing them fast enough. Maybe try doing the initial turn, then count out the total amount of turns you need. See if that works

@@Samthemule2003 interesting. The auction tag said this was a 2000. I did a check on Google and the 2000-05 RAV4 had this body style. Not sure why yours is different. Maybe because it was sold during a transitional period to the second gen?

@@AutoRevLife Maybe. It may be the month. But mine has the body and interior and everything from the first generation.

I wasn't too sure about that but thanks for letting me know. But this also is a hard top so I guess that soft top is moot

@@builtasf good luck! I always wanted this generation but the cards never lined up for me. Maybe someday

U dont think a 350 is to fast for first car?

@@culpability5957 good question. personally, I don't believe it is. My first car was a 1998 Lexus ES300. It was scary at first but I quickly got used to it. Plus there are kids who drive their parent's Sienna and Highlander around, which both have the same V6 engine but are heavier cars

I'm not very knowledgeable about the ILX. The TSX is more my speed and the TL to a lesser degree. I just thought this car was interesting

I don't remember. This sold at auction a day after I recorded the video

Maybe. But I'm not so sure Rust-Oleum is the way to go. I think higher quality clear coats will do a better job

Same. Not quite a favorite but it is lowkey iconic. The show is great!

It's too bad about the problems this car has though

Genuinely embarrassed I said that! 😅 Guess I just saw the hi low gears and the half of my brain that worked filled in the rest

@@AutoRevLife I thought it was a joke. Awesome car with a lot of life left in it!

@@bigdave260 maybe I should have pretended it was a joke. Whoops!

@@bigdave260 and yeah. These cars are awesome! Especially these beefy V8 engines!

Definitely an awesome SUV! One of my favorites!

I've seen some of these say premium and some say regular. I use regular in mine and haven't had any problems over the past decade

@@AutoRevLife do yours say premium?

@@focusedgarcia it's been a long time since I've done the research so bear with me. I looked through the forums and found people arguing about regular vs premium back and forth. I also know that Toyota uses these engines and some transmissions in both Lexus and Toyota products, but the Toyota products run on regular. There is also an argument that if your car recommends premium in the instructions but doesn't say it requires premium, then you can run on regular. That said, I've been using regular for a decade now without problems. Even though my instructions recommend premium. Hope that helps you out!

@@focusedgarciafor other models like the IS, GS, LS, or SC, it does require premium. It can't take midgrade or regular

@@jasonn4597 🤔good to know 👍🏻

Thanks for the feedback! I'll remember that for next time. Also, I did include the title fees as part of the registration. I should have said title and registration. Auction fees are also included. I just didn't factor in towing

I'm working on another video like this. Do you have any other suggestions for costs I should consider? I'm trying to be as close as possible and this was my first time

Unfortunately no. You need to do some custom wiring because the 07-09 has a different wiring setup from the 2010-11

@@AutoRevLifehi where can we order this

@@garedablang8228 Amazon or eBay

Hi! Glad I could help! I haven't really noticed a significant difference in mpg

It's called Richmond auto auctions

It's possible. It could have also been a bank repossession. I still have the vin number so I might check it later. I'm still confused by the clean condition of the car. I just find it a mystery.

Yeah. I was really surprised at how good of a condition this was in. Almost 20 years later too!

He got some blood on it 😂

Just added the link to the description

Already done! Check out my Instagram!

@@AutoRevLife just subbed😉

About $232 to get painted. Prices will vary at different locations

@@AutoRevLife thanks !

⁠@@AutoRevLifewas that $232 out the door? My macco quoted $480 out the door labor supplies and tax, for a bumper similar to yours!

@@PondMaster3000 different stores have different prices I called three different places before finally getting a reasonable quote

Fits 90%. Having some trouble with the grille and chrome parts. I got zipties to hold them on

hi i am looking for the exact same kit. could you please tell me where i xould find it?

Thanks!

Thanks for subscribing! The bumper is for a 2007-11 Toyota Camry. Look up Toyota Camry Lexus bumper on Google and you'll find it

Look on aliexpress and Alibaba

Pretty much😂

Should be possible. In older Toyota's, you can use a flat head screwdriver to pry open the top part where the seat belt goes through. I just didn't feel the need to do all of that extra work for my task because I was only adjusting my suspension

@@AutoRevLife <3 thanks

@@tredention3859 hope it helps!
