Didn't think it would be that prominent. Looks a lot better in person

Verrrry nice. Can we say sleeper? Still retaining much of that stock look, but Surprise!! Specs are very nice, it's amazing what a little head work, bored out pistons and a couple of turbo's can do to pep things up a bit.

Ahh, the shifter. The reason for the ****....well the transmission is a TH400(GM Turbo 400 3 speed w/gear vendor overdrive unit). Hence the B&M ****.

The turbos are Precision GT3255E...take a look at the spec. sheet

I am brand new here.........and this post above says it all! I just bought a nicely kept one owner 98 GS 400 with about a 120K for 13Gs. I am getting rid of my supercharged 98 Camry V6. Dumped stupid money into it and won't even retrieve 25% of that money.
Now this silver GS is awesome!! But man you have to have some deep pockets and/or lots of time and a serious love affair for cars. Lot of props my friend, that is one mean Lexus.
Nice work!

This is the first time I've seen a boosted GS400. How many PSI are you boosting? Can't wait to see the video.
