I haven't updated thread in a while, not much going on, just waiting for parts. Hoping GTHAUS should be ready anytime now, and a few other things in the works.

For now thought I'd just update with some recent pictures I took.

Loving this setup! You sir, have some fine photography skills.

Are you planning on doing any sound tests or recordings once you have the new exhaust on?

Thank you, and yes sir, will definitely have videos & pictures of install and sound for sure.

Awesome!! Can't wait for some new updates and photos on that!! If you can take some video of the exhaust after install that would be 10x awesome . Only if you have time though haha. I know we're all busy people.

WOW WOW WOW!!!

I am in love with your car! Everything you have done is just perfect in my opinion! Every mod you have chosen fits perfect with the way I interpret the design language of the RCF, and helps to accentuate all of the great qualities and make the car look perfectly aggressive!

Some of the wheels, body kits, and wild colors I have seen on other cars look pretty bad, and on a car like the RCF with bold styling actually make the car look cheap and like it could be mistaken for a Honda Accord Coupe. These modifications make the RCF look like a $35k car at best. Your car and choice of mods, on the other hand, literally looks like an exotic and looks much more expensive than its price! Your RCF is seriously one of the best and most special looking cars I have seen under $200k. I think if I saw your car on the road I would have a hard time keeping my composure and not crashing!

And then the photography. Excellent job of capturing and highlighting everything that makes the RCF such a stand out/polarizing design. That last set of pictures a few post above mine are the best I have seen of any RCF to date. The one from the side taken in the parking garage is spot on and does a is a fantastic interpretation of the bold and aggressive lines. The last picture show casing the three "L" shaped LEDs in the headlamps belongs in the Lexus RCF brochure!

Seriously well done!!

Awesome, well thought out post, I really appreciate all the positive feedback,~ it's wonderful to hear!

So I got a couple updates, first I want to thank my friend Sherwin (Sherwink on forums) for a very thoughtful gift.
My new Joe Z intake!




It just came in today, I'm giving it to R1 Autoworks who did my calipers Saturday and going to paint it red as well to go with the overall theme of the car.

2nd update is GTHAUS, I spoke with Rob who said mine came in and will ship Monday, so if all goes well next Friday I will have both exhaust and intake on just in time for the UTI Dallas car meet / block party.

Stay tuned!

Oh it's about to get real this week for me, been looking forward to this for months. Rob over at GTHAUS has been amazing, look for pictures of the system once received on Thursday, then install pics and first start up video Friday.

If you're local to Dallas I'll be at Renegade Unleashed Friday night, and UTI block party Saturday.

Feeling excited!

So lucky, im jealous.

As I told you on instagram, I still havent recieved any info on my shipping date

And what kills me more is that it ships from gthaus to somewhere in the states and then half way across the world to where I live
