so apparently the car is from California and it was a repossession so when they bought it they had problems getting the lien released. all is well I should have plates in 2 weeks.

So after adjusting my photobucket I realized that none of my pics worked anymore.
Here is an update from start to where I am now with this GS.
The day It got home.

I knew I needed to go lower so I found a set of Megan Lp coils and added some 17inch Toyota Camry wheels.

After That I did the chrome grille mod and put on some stern st2s but Houston streets eventually put a bent in them so they were removed.


And then I found some new wheels. 19inch Toyota Highlander rims.


After that I Purchased an AMG S55. It had some title issues so I returned it but was already pampered by the power so I decided the Lexus needed an upgrade. Enter Aristo 2JZGTE!


The car started having some ball joint issues so I replaced the Lowers and the caster arm bushings.
Thank you Mike @Figsengineering For your help and for promptly answering all my questions about these cater arm bushings.



Here is the car how it sits today
With the added
TTE rep front lip
3inch downpipe and exhaust from CVT in Houston TX.
FMIC
Greddy BCC

Special Thanks To Ken Chou who performed my swap.
