Thumbs up finally took some photos: This is my ride...

I have been working my a$$ off for the past year and half on researching and building my daily. First, I want to thank Club Lexus and all the members who contributed their knowledge to many of the helpful threads.

For those of you who had the chance of seeing a copy of the US version of Option newsletter, this project car was debuted in an article in that mini-magazine with feature of Kennedy from Platinum VIP (Irwindale, CA) he has been the sole master mechanic & painter of my ride. He is the jack of all trade. and I want to thank him for putting up with my ***** and building this sexy beast... My buddy Steve from SR Motorcars (Garden, CA) tuned the beast via Stinger EMS and I also want to thank him for taking the time to help.

Upgrade stages: Engine (1JZ), Suspension Components, Shoes, Paint & Kit, Auto to R154 conversion, Single Conversion, Tuning...

No picture of the engine bay b/c I feel it's too personal, like a naked pic ...

Come find me on the streets of So Cal :

We took the cars out today in LA by j-town and snap some photos









btw, the photos were shot on my Sony DSC-P200 on 1mB setting. ^^
more pics to come...

professional:

yea, the PM VIP's LS is the sexiest of all. It is running on 22" with 3" lip in the front and 5" lip with -7 degree of camber on VIP Modular VR08
