I will be down in the Inner Harbor. I am going to head out to DC for a day, and to that Benny's place for lunch during the week. PM me your number.

Whether or not you are actually interested in getting it, it would still be good to get a members eyes on the kit to get some additional feedback.

Sojah- if you could kindly report back your findings, ride impression, that would be great!!! I'd love to see it in action and get impression but I'm on the other side in Seattle...

Ride Low - thanks for the details for the base vs. pro. Looking forward to see how many more members may be interested for this kits so that it would go into productions.

I've seen Chris' GS first hand since he is local to me and I actually know him. The kit appears to be solid and pretty good deal if you ask me. I didn't catch a ride in it since we were having a BBQ and I was one of the host. I'm sure if any of you want me to, Chris can meet up with me and I can test drive it then give you my feedback. (Ummm chris you have full coverage right ). Hahahaaa

Being a former GS owner (GS400 and turbo'd GS300) and now a LS430 UL, i think I can give you a pretty good overview on the differences. So Chris hit me up if you want to meet up.

I'll be at the Funkmaster Flex show this weekend, don't know if your going.

Soup, we can meet up whenever, I'll PM you, maybe after work or something. You will be amazed how the car rides on the wheels with stretched tires.

Not sure if I will be able to make it out this weekend, but I will try.

i seens it, i seens it... it looked like a normal air setup to me. just a normal air setup with the adjustable coilover type things on top of the strut mounts... i was hoping and dreaming and wishing that it would be like the tein edfc controller where it is adjustable from the inside of the vehicle just like the height is controlled on this setup...
