What up everyone,

I'm Nelson, and below is my new pride and joy...2006 GS300 RWD. Originally joined the forum since I was aspiring at obtaining an LS early last year, but that deal fell thru, and went BMW, and later 350Z. With a baby boy on the way, I needed something to chauffeur him around once he's here. Without further due:





I have some 20" Vossen 086's in mind, and Tanabe Coils...any inputs welcome. Thanks!

Congrats on the new purchase. You definitely can't go wrong with Vossens and a big drop. Have fun!

Oh, it was less than 47degs. that day, but I was still at it. I couldnt stand how of an "UNdetailed"--detailing job the dealer did. I've had numerous bad experiences with car wash's here in ABQ that say they "detail."

Thanks guys for all the compliments, currently trying to see if the wife will let me spend $4k in toys for the car (Vossen's/Coilovers).

No major updates other than a DICE iPod Integration Kit on the way. Should order the coils within the next month or so (decided to go with BCR's).

How much are those kits and where did you order from? That website seems useless if you actually want to give them money.
