Also, looking for a referral to a good quality powdercoating service. I have a couple of places in mind, but interested to hear from other references. Thanks.
I was in the same boat as you a few months ago with my LS460. In the end, instead of having to go through the extra cost and hassle of getting the calipers off, 6sick6 (Drew) painted them on the car. If you are interested, I can vouch for him. I think they came out great.

been trying to reach out to anyone out here. Trying to find out if there are any meets and when and where are they. Im tucson. but don't mind driving anywhere. (917) 648-2962

I don't think anyone has organized any meets yet, I would be interested in participating in one. There is a drift and drag event at firebird where a bunch of Supra's plan on meeting up at.

Yeah I've been going to the Pavs for the past 11 years and I must say, it's not as fun as it use to be and it's starting to get a little to crowed IMO. I think the only reason why I go there now is for YC's lol.

I went back when I was in the BMW crew one time. All they did was try to be cool infront of the other car clubs, and instead of reserving spots for each other, they would park like ***** and take up more space and then talk crap about everyone elses car. Then everyone else you run into is talking about how GREAT their stuff is and how much everyone elses car sucked. My BMW was sweet, it was fast, M3 cams and all that, but I never told them because I refused to act like that.

But there is an american car show from Nancy Perry Productions (i know her, I used to do the american shows with my old muscle cars) on friday its at Chilly Bombers on 51st and Bell, and then it goes to MexTeca on 67th and bell on saturday. Im going to them this weekend with my LS since its loud and sounds american. They will never know lol

I will drive through the Pavs this weekend. If you spot me, say hi or whatever, but i aint gonna stay long searching. If you dont hear my LS400 coming, then look for the Hammer and Sickle on my taillight or my headlight.
