Restoring the glory to my GS300
Figured it was time to make one of these. I bought a 98 GS300 back in June or something. Got it for $3000. Ran great but had ugly wheels and blown caster bushings so didn't ride so nice. Has 243k miles or something like that. The previous owner just had the engine freshened up and the ball joints changed.
Very first mod was the best one yet :P
Needed caster arm bushings so I bought Figs and pressed them in myself.
Threw on my spare set of wheels and sold those terrible konigs.
Test fit the Enkeis from my Genesis
Just got some Tein CS coils and dropped it as low as they'll go.
Then got some new tails to get rid of those horrible blacked out lights with a faded inner.
I love this car. It is by far the best car I've ever had. I've had newer, more expensive cars but this one beats them all. Can't beat Toyota!

The caster bushings were really easy. The hardest part was putting the arms back on the car. All the old bushing slop is gone and you have to twist the arms to line up.
Thanks everyone! I have been neglecting this car due to working on my old school luxury sedan I've ruined lol
