Default My First GS

Hey all, just want to share some pics with you all of a GS300 I picked up a few weeks ago. It is an 01 silver with black interior, 134K miles. It was bone stock wgen I picked it up.
I have since done a full tune up, plugs, timing belt, seals, water pump and all fluids. I also did the famous ball joints. I have the steering rack and lower control bushings waiting to be installed as soon as I get a day off.
I installed a TTE replica lip and added a set of XXR 20 inch wheels I got a great deal on. The specs on they wheels are 20x8.5 and 20x10, 35 mm offset all around.
This is going to be a weekend cruiser as I have a 94 SC300 which i will continue to use as my daily driver.
I have to fix the servo motors for the passenger side as well as the mode door of the HVAC system. Other than that the car runs real good.




Here is a pis of the SC300
