Hey guys. I've posted a few threads before. Nothing major. On what I was doing to my stock '01 GS430. Well it's been a few months of hard work with bills and work and all. But finally, I've made a step forward to having it run smoother like factory luxury . Below are a few pics and descriptions that might've been on my other threads as well new pics taken today. Got new LBJs (MOOG) and outer tie rods as well (MOOG). Bought some cross drilled rotors all round with ceramic pads to go along with. And 4 brand new Bridgestone Fuzion tires. I know once I put all these things on, it won't make much of a difference picture wise aside from the cross drilled rotors, but driving wise, it should drive like a beauty. Please, tell me what you guys think. Here are the pics below and links with exact prices:

Are you going na-t or anything that makes a good amount of HP other than stock? Cause I heard the cross drilled brakes aren't good for your car if it doesn't make that much HP for it to work. Read it somewhere in the brake thread. Let me see if I can search and find it. No doubt it looks cool but you don't wanna have a failure since that's one of the most important things on your car if you DD your car. But great start on suspension instead of cosmetic!

Yes. Im not really a hooking up kind of guy. Idk if the cross drilled rotors are bad but I just bought those for the hell of it. Not the cheapest 1s either. I just wanna stock luxurious look like of it was back in 2001 =}. the most i might do is put some 19s on it. I'll post the pic later with the the link and everything.

New tints, new center caps for the OEM 17" wheels (around $100) on Sewell... And I'll have that look. Then ima buy the OEM Toyota/Lexus timing belt kit off eBay for around $475. Has everything. From seals to tensioners to thermostats to serpentines to timing belt. I'll post the link later too for all you GS430 guys! Thanks. Keep showing love. Ima be posting many links, pics, before&after pics. Thanks!
