  1. so was i........... brian
  2. yeah side shot for sure tomorrow and as far as light wheels scope out rayswheels.co.jp grams lights are the *BLEEP* as far as light wheels. I love these wheels they come in basic colors but this is the new style and i like it!!!!!!!! im officially retireing to club lexus for good after tomorrow so didnt wanna leave n e one hanging... Same screen name though. u know nothign stopping u from having a account with both. alot of us do including myself with the same sn! brian
  3. yeah i didn't have mine done there as i wasn't aware they are a k40 dealer..........last thing i need is some kid messing with that expensive of a radar detector. brian
  4. oh i know what u mean. some roads i just cant seem to drive as slow as the speed limit is. just try a k40 like i have it helps i even liked my old valentine radar detector. :) brian
  5. looks good. my hitch was easy. i just used qa air impact to loosen them and then hand unscrewed them. now getting the bolts back in that hung my exhaust sucked but it was ok i did it at my buddies valvoline so i could get under the car. dont even know why i had a hitch on mine. couldn't tow much mine was a small hitch brian
  6. yea me 2...i was havin a pretty rough day yesterday...death in the fam...guess i was takin it out on ya..sorry...anyways...i dont know much about the 430...how is the engine (reliability wise) compared to the 2jz? well i dunno really i would assume so though it is a yota.......lol. i think the tundra has the same motor as we do.......the 430 has a 4.3 v8 so i like it. its plenty torque but will almost never have the aftermarket support the 300 does! brian
  7. um cops working the graveyard shift. if u think about it though, MOST the time if u werent doing anything though he wouldnt have pulled u over. funny how people ALWAYS blame the cops. ever stopped to think hey if i wasnt speeding or running that red light i wouldnt get pulled over. sorry got like 15 cop friends and i dont always feel its thier fault although sometimes it is. i have had enough of my own police incidents i try to behave most the time now. ;) brian
  8. Hey man who ever you are...... I owe you lunch.... if you're in CA, I will treat you lunch.... I fix my car problem... the same problem as your car.... Thanks again for sharing... i know sometimes things dont have to make sense to work.......but is it just me or does this sound like the DUMBEST fix ever? even if it works.......i dunno that i wanna wack on a fragile $2000.00 gauge cluster with electronics all in it! just my $0.02 brian
  9. yeah just noticed them when i started looking for my own. havent decided between the hks and the greddy unit yet! brian
  10. guys...this is what i do, since i have a step driveway too..........try taking it at a angle and/or putting a board at the bottom to even it out......... brian
  11. http://jdmultimate.com/Store/Product/ItmGr...&Make=LEXUS greddy makes one for the older gs i dunno if the new one can use it.........its kinda pricey though. but the universal ones from summit or jegs will work just fine! i will be doing one myself soon brian
  12. lol.....oh well. im in a better mood today neways. :D brian
  13. i've been sticking with my Michelin energy mxv4's.........i know they are a little pricey but i haven't found a tire I LIKE more. nice and quiet, great ride, good grip, and they last. tires are the one thing i really wont cheap out on as my ride/life can depend on my tires sticking or stopping! brian
  14. did i go crazy or did some posts get removed?
  15. those kits are for the SAME motor as the gs300. same kit same swaps! now whens someone gonna make a off the shelf kit for my 430? sigh brian
  16. just some options......... buy a used one, buy a new one, get a custom one made! heres a few http://www.partrequest.com/vehicles/used_auto_parts/0 http://www.classifiedflyerads.com/flyer_de...;flyer_id=48606 hmmmmm......same auction (i think) but this one is from the guy and on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2000-Lexus-...emZ170244635079 goodluck brian
  17. depends on if u care if it has a salvage or other title. also if u have time/desire to work on it and accept the fact that there maybe more wrong with it then what they saying! if u gonna pull the motor and dont care if its salvage then yeah although check with your insurance company, some of them wont insure salvage cars!! brian
  18. i know the swift kits are nice and all.........but being as thier BASE kit is $6,749.95 for The SILVER Package (our most popular) comprises of the following components SRT Stage 2.75 Kit, 3" Turbo Exhaust, Blitz Turbo Timer w/harness, Blitz SBC electronic boost controller/gauge, Innovate Wideband O2 Gauge (model #3796) and.....$12,995.00 for the SRT Lexus IS300 Ultimate PLATINUM Package The GOLD Package +, Upgrade to PT76GTS Turbo, Upgrade to Haltech E11v2 EMS, Upgrade to 2nd Haltech 3ch Igniter, Upgrade to Haltech RA10 Signal conditioner, Upgraded to 1000cc injectors, Complete set of Supra TT coils (includes everything), Set of SRT machined HKS 264 cams, SRT CNC Intake manifold, Complete Dual Intank FP with SS Braided Lines, i think its safe to say..............MOST people would build thier own or even just do the 2jz-gte swap and go with some of the basic bolt ons for that motor as u can make more power for the 13k like that! but like i said swift's kit are good just for that kinda money i would rather do the 2jz-gte swap and then put a greddy t66,hks cams,ect etc and make more power for less than 13k!! brian
  19. might have to just scrap that one and buy one from a junkyard or ebay or the dealer or someplace ! was this a hit and run or why isnt the responsible party paying for this? brian
  20. as djspawn said..........it depends on how u drive, the cops mood,etc, etc. i dont know for a fact but i dont think they would pull u over for those in memphis! although color ones....ie red,green,etc they do alot! i like them actually look better than our do do brown (or whatever color they are) day time running lights brian
  21. ouch.......motorcycle or bicycle wreck? what part of tn..........were illegal? that mean they legal now? brian
  22. THANKS GUYS, IT'S AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, SEEM LIKE THE PISTON/CALIPERS LOCKING UP AFTET 1/2 HOUR OF DRIVING. WILL POST FEED BACK... GOT IT FIXED, HAD TO REPLACE BOTH CALIPERS. blah when i bought mine i did the rear rotors, pads, fronmt pads, and turned the front rotors......i think its time to replace my front rotors now! might get some brembo blanks but i dunno! brian
  23. B) so does my k40......... :P but alot better brian
  24. so switch up your search...................... try gs300 leather, gs300 seat(s), lexus armrest, lexus leather, etc etc. "search and you shall find" here i googled lexus salvage yards.............try calling some http://www.google.com/search?q=lexus+salva...amp;rlz=1I7ADBS brian
  25. IMHO 19's are the biggest that look good on the gs.....slammed of course but i just dont like 20's. thats just me though!! brian
