Sorry Ed. No backing out this time.

Hey Ed, I know its of the topic and all. Bit your care always inspired me to make mine to match yours in some ways.. Can you tell me where you get your work on your car done, suspension, regular mechanical, and other work on your GS. I read here that you have the best tuners around here that you know and tight circle of people that help you with your beautiful ride. I am from Daytona. PM me with some info. Thanks, and good luck with your SUpercharger find, that would seal the deal.

sounds good man.. I was just outhere a month ago, took my NAD A/V Receiver to Lakes electronic to get fixed and I had a chance to look at the city.. I loved it beachside, damn nice homes, big boats, etc.. Looked very good.. I just got my Tein CS and new ball joints, and Daizen control arm bushings from Todd, went over my friends shop but he had a hard tome to figure out how to put the bushings (8 all together), he will try to press them out and new ones in today, but will see how it will all come out, I might need to drive over there to you so you can take a look at everything anyway, and I am planning to get Daizen sway bars soon anyway, so I will come up that done with you. Plus I got all kinds clunk and cracking noises from front end and he can't figure out what that is.. I had loose steering, fixed that with new rack shaft (after we realized it was not the rack, we changed that to), new tierods, now we got new control arm bushings and ball joints, will see what happends after all this is complete. He thinks that upper control arm ball joint is bad, because it has a little tinny bit of play, plus bad shock mount, Teins would take care of that, or that rack is bad.. So, you see, he is nice kid but I just do not feel comfortable, since he could never be sure and he never worked on Lexus before.. Hey man, why you might get layed off? Sorry to hear that.. So, I would take you up on this offer, I will deffinetly drive up there, plus love to see your ride man.. ttyl..

Here's a alternate route you can take Ed. When you get laid off in September, drive up to Georgia (you can even do this while there for LexFest 06), and visit Mahdavi Motorsports and get your GS turboed!!!

heres an idea, buy a hi mileage gs3, blk of course and than swap everything on your car over to that car even the hood trunk, shoot even doors if they are in better condiditon than the new gs3. Than swap the motor and boost away. than sell your stock gs4 for a good 14-16k. you could probably find a nice blk gs3 for about 12k now with hi miles.

Kit,hood,trunk,brakes, suspension,wheels, interior, tails, headlights all can come out and be swapped. even the doors could be swapped. I mean it would take a week of work but it could also give you the power you might be looking for for much less than a gs4 fi..Just an idea in case you can't find a SC for your car.

I did a quick search on autotrader and found a blk gs3 in your area off sunrise for 9,900

Sorry Ed I'm enjoying mine way to much to let it go.

I had been giving some though to taking SC off and going back to stock, then I drove my wifes GS400 and it seemed gutless in comparison.
That ended any thought of going back.





Sorry
