The Lexus Street Rod is based on a ’32 roadster and was created to showcase a specially modified Lexus GS 400 V8, producing more than 400 horsepower.
The Lexus Street Rod is the result of an unusual collaboration of expertise resulting from partnership of Lexus, Toyota Racing Development (TRD) USA, Inc., MillenWorks, and California Street Rods.
The GS 400’s all-aluminum 4.0-liter V8 features 32 valves, four cams and the first use of continuously variable valve timing in a V8 engine to produce a strong 300 horsepower in production trim. Engineers at TRD, USA, set to work increasing output based on their experience building Indy car and off-road racing engines.
The V8 is topped by eight carbon-fiber velocity stacks with integrated air screens. Each cylinder has its own 2-inch diameter throttle body for maximum airflow. A new intake manifold system adapted from TRD’s 4.7-liter desert off-road racing V8 is used and the Lexus VVT-i continuously variable valve timing computer map was revised to provide intake valve advance of 30 degrees of crank angles from 1,500 to 7,800 rpm. Camshaft lift was increased from production lift of 0.350 inch to 0.385. The GS 400 V8’s compact size and lightweight made it an ideal fit in the open engine bay of the ’32 Street Rod. To further streamline the package, TRD engineers relocated the power steering pump to the center of the engine’s "V" by means of a custom-engineered adapter. The power steering system is otherwise the same as the GS 400. Virtually all other components are production items. With these modifications, the Lexus Street Rod produces 400 horsepower at 8,200 rpm with a stock compression ratio of 10.5 to1.
The Lexus Street Rod’s original concept was penned by noted designer Larry Woods, and the ’32 roadster body work and custom interior were crafted by California Street Rods of Huntington Beach, Calif. Styling design was kept subtle and simple to complement the proportions of the original body work. The engine bay has removable side panels to showcase the carefully finished Lexus powerplant. A split "Du Vall" type windshield adds character to the upper body and integrates with a subtle chromed accent strip extending forward to the radiator shell. Paint finish is candy apple three-coat red, custom mixed by PPG Industries.
Chassis engineering and fabrication were completed by MillenWorks. Rod Millen guided development of the Lexus Street Rod’s sophisticated chassis. "Since this car is intended to be driven, not just parked and admired," said Millen, "the chassis and running rear had to match the sophistication of the Lexus powertrain. Wherever possible, we used components from the GS 400. They’re state-of-the-art, lightweight and compact, making them ideal for a hot rod."
The Lexus 5-speed automatic transmission retains the unique E-shift manual shift controls mounted on a modified Lexus GS 400 steering wheel. Similar to Formula-One type semi-automatic shifting systems, Lexus E-shift permits manual up and downshift control with a touch of the thumb or forefinger. Sophisticated double-wishbone suspension at all four corners provides outstanding road holding. Steering inputs are handled by a modified Lexus GS 400 power steering rack. Springs and shocks are activated via pullrods and rockers in front and via rocker arms at the rear. Custom springs were supplied by Eibach. BFGoodrich Comp T/A ZR tires, sized 8x17 inches front, 11x18 inches rear.
A partner with Lexus on special editions of the ES 300 and LS 400 sedans, Coach Leather provided hides to trim the Street Rod’s interior in a light buff color with a thin red leather accent running throughout the interior.
Brakes are Brembo four piston calipers with Brembo discs mounted on stock Lexus hubs and half shafts. A Lexus GS 400 limited slip differential is also employed and uses a 4.27:1 final drive ratio to compensate for the larger rear wheels and tires.
