I didn't like having to keep my car in "sport" mode with the stock suspension. As much as I believe that it's okay to do so, I have to believe that there is going to be some wear/tear/deterioration to the stock suspension if kept in this "sport" mode for the entire lifespan of the car.

Anyway, I'm excited to receive this, and anxious to become a guinea pig to us LWB drivers. Hopefully in the future there'll be more available options; the OEM suspension for me was way too soft to be driving at the height I was at.

still waiting on my suspension to arrive in the next couple weeks or so - but I had a chance to get my LS600 Full Leather dash installed at the Tustin Lexus dealership.

Actually Henry, you'd be surprised how much this ran me - it was listed for sale in the CL classifieds section for quite some time. It took me a while to find an installer for this, but then I realized I had a friend that worked @ Tustin Lexus.

Those two put together = great mod for a great price

I'll try and snap some more pictures of my car once my suspension is installed - my car has been in purgatory waiting for it to arrive from Japan.

This suspension (most likely the first of this forum) utilizes the OEM air bag suspension but replaces the lower strut with an Aragosta coilover. In addition, the coilover suspension is Tein EDFC compatible and allows the user to still lower/raiser the car through the Dataysystems module.

Time to pick up an EDFC
oh em GOD! nice, i can't wait to see how these ride. i'm in love with your 460

yeah, i actually just purchased a couple K&N filters for $50 shipped over there last week. *shrug* figured I'd take a look at them and see their fit/finish compared to some Tom's ones I was looking at.

Wifey knows I can spoil her without hesitation, my car, too knows I can take care of her too

Yeah, the full leather dash is definitely a huge upgrade for myself as the driver. I enjoy looking at it every time I sit in the car. Next up, I need to modify the tops of the door panels to match the leather dash and add some other extras in the interior for a little pop.
