  1. My buddy who works for Lexus and owns a new GS430 told me to reach out for wholesalehyperformance.com. They have several Turbo upgrade kits for the GS4.
  2. This appears to be a typical problem... The exact same thing happend to me at 98K on my 98GS4 and I had to get the starter replaced. The dealer asked for $800+, I got it done for a little less than $500 at a local shop. SK will probably tell you this, because its true, if you do a search you should find tons of info. Let me know if you want the number to my local guy. CW
  3. Thanks for the advice, my goal is to maximize my car and get the most out of it. I was talking to a guy in the auto store and he was in the processed of getting his car "chipped out" and he said that I could get better performance if I did the same, which lead me to my research and question.
  4. Unlike many of you, my knowledge of car mechanics is minimal at best. When I look under the hood its like chinese arithmatic. I've had my Green GS 400 for 4 years now and I love it. The only problem I've had has been a dying starter that had to be replaced for $500.00 6-mos ago. I thought about selling my car but there is not much out there that I can get for under $50K so I guess I'm in it for the long haul. Everything is factory and I just picked out some 18" Chrome wheels. Sorry for the monologue but I wanted to give some insight since this is my first post. Now on to my question, speed. I would like to increase the speed of my car, where should I start? I've seen those $50-$100 modules on ebay guarnteing 45+HP. I know you can spend thosands I just want to start out slow. What will give me the most bang for the buck? Performance chips, modules, air intake, etc? I just need to know where to start. Also, I live in Atlanta, reccomend any shops to do the work?
