You should always apply the emergency parking brake when parking, even in the driveway... will protect the transmission from that roll that happens after you release your foot off the brake
That’s the beauty of 90s cars. Most mods are maintenance items and minor upgrades which make for great content! To see an older car slowly transform and restore is such a rewarding process as well. Can’t wait to see more daily content 👍🏽
I love the dash cluster and frame less door. I used to have the same model sold at 240 k miles with 0 issues. Now I have lexus es350 got for my son who is an engineering student. Very reliable daily drive car
Low key one of the greatest features I remember about my 96 ES is the doors not having a frame for the windows. Always made me feel like I was driving a convertible during the summers with no a/c lol
you don't have to say low key at the beginning, it adds nothing to the sentence. And old farts will think you are dumb when you say it, best not to let slang get in your vocab too much because then its hard to turn off.
I got a 97 es300 for 3500 2 years ago from one owner with 48k miles. Only weakness is alternator. Get it rebuilt from finish line from 130 amp on v6 highlander. They beefed up my alternator with double wind diodes and better rectifier making it 130 to 180 amp for my subwoofer. Been a great car
I inherited my dad's '98 ES when he passed away, I ended up trading it in for a new '10 TSX V6. I drove the car for a few years, it was such a smooth driving car. My dad never really took care of the car though, he wasn't a car guy, so the car was kind of falling apart when I got a hold of it. Interestingly, my ES also lost a lug nut along the way. Good luck with the car, it's a sweet ride. I love to see older Lexus cars on the road.
@@AlephTroll the only major issue I had was the AC busting on me. Again, that too was most likely due to my dad not using the car's automatic climate control correctly. A few other things were replaced under an extended warranty I bought for the car, but I honestly doubt those things actually needed to be replaced. It was all suspension stuff. The car drove fine, but since the shop was able to get the warranty to cover it, I allowed them to do the work. It was a terrific car. I believe the car had about 150K miles on it when I traded it in, which is nothing for an ES. I wouldn't be surprised if it's still on the road today.
When it comes to your tweeter warning on Crutchfield it basically means you'll need a specific adapter bracket for your car so the tweeter slides into the plate and then the plate screws into the car and fits like OEM. If you have trouble finding a tweeter bracket for your model, 3D printing would be the way to go. COOL DAILY!
Worked for Toyota many years, see if you see a label when the last timing belt was replaced. That’s the last thing you need snapping, and while there in there changing the belt, have them change oil pump gasket , water pump gasket and crank o ring. You want that car to last take care of those things. Love the Vids, and stay real.
Love this car! Quick tip: you can push down the wiper arms until they "click" into the lower position - it'll be out of your driving view (the up position is the service mode/winter mode)
Yep! I do this with mine too. It's scary the first time because you think you're going to break them when pushing down, but they're designed to move in 2 positions.
Makes me miss my 2001 es300 one of the best cars I ever owned. Wound up getting a 2007 es350 because it has more power. But it was a great car for the 3yrs I had it.
Hello. Liking the content. If you are hearing noises when you turn right, then it's your left wheel bearing. Thats usually how suspension works. Also, for your speakers/music, the number 1 thing to change is your amplifier. It will make the most difference.
Great condition ES! I have had my 98 since Jan, 2018 and it has been fantastic. Mine is in much worse shape appearance wise, but mechanically these are incredible cars. Check to make sure the timing belt and water pump have been done. Mine was 70k miles past due when I bought it.
Hey I noticed that the radiator on your car is turning brown. Its a very common thing for older toyotas to have that and It means that the plastic on the radiator is brittle and it could burst unexpectedly. Ive owned a bunch of 20+ year old lexus and toyota vehicles and its just something I always replace preventatively. Anyways good video 👍
I bought a 2001 ES300 and the radiator had a brown top. I replaced it. I used to have a 1993 Camry and the radiator top burst and shot hot fluid onto the engine which turned into steam instantly. It looked like my engine was on fire with all the steam billowing out from under the hood. 😅
Is there a giveaway to easily tell if the timing belt is worn? Not as familiar with timing belts. my other cars have had chains. Looking at a 94’ with 90k miles
I bought 2000 same model and color 1 yr ago and now has only 41K miles on it. My bad Mechanic rip me off with $5K for maintenance. I think I am goin to put muffler. I am rocking now.
That was great value purchase. If I owned that car from new, it would have over 600,000 miles on it. The issue you are going to run into is that all the little everyday use stuff has "600,000" miles on it. Probably started and stopped just as many times as I would have. Probably has seen just as much UV too. Doesn't mean its bad, just will have some issues.
Dude the seatbelts you just have to give it a good wash, like soak it in water in a bucket of soap after pulling it out all the way. Have it held with something if needed and then dry it off.
The ATOTO line up of radios has become EXTREMELY popular among enthusiasts, check out the A6 model or the S8 model they are the ABSOLUTE best bang for your buck headunit ! plenty of CZcams reviews and videos on them !
While i dont like the 1998 for the split lights looking weird i love the es300, such an affordable retro luxury car that can be turned into so much more and the 1993-96 has a very nice front bumper style which pairs well with widebody/fullbody kits and the 1mz-fe is still decently boostable could be a great sleeper
you right about that. my dad had given one to me with 260k miles on it. and if you start in L and then climb up to 2 then get into drive aka the third gear with traction control and o/d off it fucking eats for what it is. i was once cutting up on the highway with it and ended up getting in a race with three corvette's they mightve been faster but i won the race cuz the thing is quick and nimble with good steering (perfect for cutting up) i took gaps that they couldn't take and left em in the dust. was about to put a cold air intake on the fucker before all of my Lugnuts on the front left wheel stripped out and the wheel fell off on my way to work. Lexi is in the shop now smh
PF Changs is so good! I have the same problem with o2 sensor so I just leave the warning light alone. For the stickers blow dry and spray with WD40. Put newspapers to catch the drips
I've got a 98 ES300. Here's what I've done so far for mods. Radio, coilovers, primax 776 rims in black chrome, seat covers, steering wheel cover with wood trim, spark plugs, replaced both axles, and replaced the heater core. That's over the span of the last five years
I remember the gas gauge slowly going up like that with my 99 Camry. Also O2 sensor CEL was always an issue. Never had it fixed for long. Car drove great though. Go blue 😬
Regarding the seat belt, it might just be dirty. I had a 2001 corolla with a similar issue. I fixed it by cleaning the belt and components is goes through. Pull the seat belt all the way out and put a clamp on the belt so it wont retract, then set a bucket of warm water and detergent in the seat and let it all soak for a while. Of course, let it dry out before retracting.
We had a 1999, but none of those issues oddly. Not even the slow gas gauge - I wonder if the float is sticky or something - maybe from infrequent driving before. Our 1999 had 225k miles on it in 2018. The power steering hose leaks often that goes behind the engine where it's crimped, but they may have fixed that in the past.
You can look up the video how to replace install rear brake pads. I had to change out the driver front hud wheel bearing. You have to press it out and in do not attempt to try, unless you have a press, u could take it then you do the rest of the install process, lower control arm ,
For the seat belt my '05 accord had the same problem and believe it or not, cleaning the belt thoroughly ended up fixing the issue for me! Maybe it would work in this case too? Love your vids btw, been watching since you got your 10th gen SI and been a fan of your content since :)
100% - had to do that with my 1997 Camry. Over time they build up grime and get stiff. Best way to clean them is soak it in a large bucket that sits in the seat filled with water and laundry detergent overnight. It’s crazy how much grime will come out and that belt will start working again
The seat belt definitely needs to be cleaned. That should fix it. Pull the belt all the way out and shut the door on it. With the belt hanging out, pressure wash it.
My boy! I haven’t been watching the videos but getting back into it and I do follow you on IG but just want to say congrats on the pregnancy incase I didn’t on IG and beyond happy that your channel is growing! Also love that you got this older Lexus love Lexus soo much so really can’t wait to see what you do with it!
If you're gonna do brake pads yourself I highly advise getting a brake caliper piston compressor tool kit. In the US you can usually rent it from Autozone.
What kind of magnaflow muffler are you thinking about getting? I have a 2003 LS430 and I want it mild as well. Like a good amount of noise as I start up & accelerate but not too loud for long trips.
Naw just get the door speakers with tweeters built into them. Just disconnect the oem tweets. Modification means drilling hole and putting new tweeters somewhere else. Hey the most important comment is congratulations on your child very special bro. I had 2 daughters there grown up, enjoy the yrs with ur kid congrats 🎈🎊🎉🍾
I think your wipers are in the winter mode, you can take your hands and push down so it sits slower under the hood. Also, leave your lights in auto and have memory seats for driver 1 and 2 on the left side.

Great video Cam!!! Look for a sticker on a side of timing belt cover and check with mechanic about the condition it’s in. The sticker should say date and mileage when it was changed out. Don’t be in a hurry to spend money unless the water pump leaks. This engine is a non-interference engine. Look it up. I bet that car is made in Japan. 👍👍👍

Wholesome content bro. Car looks good it's also nice to modify it for your comfort Like I do all my cars. Can't wait for the baby to get here! Best wishes man.
The turn signal issue is a short basically. There was a service bulletin on it. Take the corner light bulb out and sand the bulb and inside connector with a wire brush and it will fix the issue.
"daily beaters" can become dangerous...you end up loving them and spending alot more $ than you had planned. I did that with a 2001 4runner...ending up loving it more than my 350z :)
I said it also in the last vid, DONT PUT AN EXHAUST ON IT!!! See how long it will go for. Would love to see you have it for many more years and many more miles.
Check out corner lights and headlights, changed the entire look of the front end makes it looks newer and better. Love the content, great car. Mines a Pearl white tricoat 97.
A lot of times those turn signals have a bad connection inside the socket. You can remove the bulb and pull the prongs up. First, try smacking the light assembly when it's blinking, sometimes it stops blinking fast and blinks normal again. 😉
I know this is a year old I have a 1995 Lexus ES300 and I'm sure you already fixed this issue but the rapid blinking flash is your flasher relay which is going to be driver side right kick panel
Tweeters can go in different places. They don't have to go in the same place. That tint is only mirrored tint and not ceramic. It's old and is why it looks weird. The sticker, goo gone and heat. It will take it off. Brakes... Do you know what type of calipers are on the back? Some of them need a caliper tool, and this tool is not expensive. Be careful not to burn your air force fingers with those old bulbs
The yellow is called tungsten and the led light temperature is daylight it’s measured in kelvin so 2600-3000k is tungsten 5600-6000k is daylight. Sounds like the sending unit needs to be upgraded eventually. Not now but eventually. I have to do this with my 98 lexus it says empty even with a full tank.
Your temperature gauge is going to cold. That normally means your thermostat is stuck open. Happened to my 1mz fe changed the thermostat my gauge never moved after that stayed in the middle like it should
You should always apply the emergency parking brake when parking, even in the driveway... will protect the transmission from that roll that happens after you release your foot off the brake

If you're gonna do brake pads yourself I highly advise getting a brake caliper piston compressor tool kit. In the US you can usually rent it from Autozone.
Just buy it off Amazon they are $20 and aren't covered in grease
Or you can just use one of the old pads and compress it that way. Cheap and free.
Oh my, Lexus is increadibly tough and reliable.
Imagine 90's Lexus are still on the road.
Dreaming of owning Ls400/430 or ES model. Soon.
The seat belt issue is due to acumulated dirt on the guide where the belt goes through on retracting. You would be surprised how filthy it get,s.
I HIGHLY recommend the Focal Auditor series speakers. They are excellent quality and work great with factory radios. Wont be disappointed
What kind of magnaflow muffler are you thinking about getting? I have a 2003 LS430 and I want it mild as well. Like a good amount of noise as I start up & accelerate but not too loud for long trips.

Your gas gauge sending unit may be going. Not sure the $$ amount to fix but it was over $950 for my Malibu. You can manually lower your wipers.
I think your wipers are in the winter mode, you can take your hands and push down so it sits slower under the hood.
Also, leave your lights in auto and have memory seats for driver 1 and 2 on the left side.

97 es300 has the best transmission lexus es300 ever had. The beast A541E
The turn signal issue is a short basically. There was a service bulletin on it. Take the corner light bulb out and sand the bulb and inside connector with a wire brush and it will fix the issue.

I know this is a year old I have a 1995 Lexus ES300 and I'm sure you already fixed this issue but the rapid blinking flash is your flasher relay which is going to be driver side right kick panel
Make sure you check the spitzer valve a lot of people often forget to check the spitzer valve could be the spitzer valve
Seat belt probably needs rewound. That’s a fix that definitely has to be done by a professional.
My 1st car was a 1995 Acura Legend SE & the gas gauge did the same thing, found it hilarious
I have one just like yours 01' gray two toned. I love it!!❤ Enjoy✌🏽
Most modifications needed for aftermarket tweeters is you will need to find a way to mount it up to the stock location.
Excellent. Car.
I know this is old but isopropyl alcohol will get those stickers off the bumper. Just peel and wipe with a cloth soaked in the ipa. Easy.
Missing the lug because of the lug lock that was previously on it don’t worry better to just grab another one
