Cool Project GS (95 Lexus GS 300)

Sooo...I got my GS. Lexus GS 300 95. I guess we will start from here. This is the journey. This is how i got the car. 159K miles, Twin Cam, Supra TT rims, new front bumper and back and rear windows tinted.

Three Problems:
1. Cracked Windshield (Due to snowstorm)
2. Left brake bracket needs to be replaced
3. No Audio






Things im going to do first:
1. The three main problems.
2. Oil, filter, flush coolant (Thx @Stolen)
3. Tie rods, timing belt, tensioner, idler, spark plugs, water pump, thermostat, upper/lower ball joints and differential fluid.
4. Sea foam or steam the engine, new carpeting and clean the interior. Not sure what direction I want to go in yet. Possibly VIP.

So, I have it in my possession now.

Gonna change the Gauge to Reverse Glow. And i may ger a new steering wheel or just throw some wood grain on it. what do you guys think?

Need me a nice head unit for this space Pioneer may fill that position lol

Needs a major cleanup. New carpets sound good. Black conversion.

The leather was ripped up. probably gonna throw some nicer seat covers on it for now and convert it to black leather later. excuse the humongous piece in the front lol.

Supra TT rims. Ill sport these for a while before i go big boy BOSS on em. lol. Already has Tanabe Lowering Springs. gonna get KYB Shocks. Slotted and drilled rotors. High performance street brake pads. supra tt big brake kit and stainless steel braided flexlines

Came with LED's on the doors and ceiling in the back.


Now thats gonna look smexy

More coming soon.
