Default New to San Diego - 2JZGTE swapped GS300 help

Hey guys,
I recently made my way to San Diego from Texas. I need to meet some more ClubLexus/car people here! I am currently having an issue with my car and need some help.
I drove the car all the way from Texas with no issue. The car was running fine for a few months, despite the **** gas here, until I got a CEL and limp mode recently. After much research I believe I am having some issues with my ETCS-I. Does anyone know of any good shops in the area? I have performed all the work on my car myself, but this issue is stumping me, and I would like to speak to someone else who is familiar with these engines as well.
Thanks guys!

First off welcome to the site/ san diego. Nice to see a new member with what sounds like a nice build. Not sure they would be able to help but try giving Autofashion a call as they might have a idea of who can help you. If not I know a shop in Los Angeles (Platinum VIP) deals with those motors

Welcome to SD bro....I would recommend either Rush Motorsports in Santee, Louis is great and honest. He can't diagnose anything and get it running.

I also forgot to mention Lextek in National City. Don't know much about this shop but i've heard great things. The owner is a certified Lexus mechanic and prior dealership mechanic.
