Why don't you make your own build thread?

Good catch on the SC.

Welcome! Very impressive. I'm very interested in the engine modifications. Supercharger and the ECU specifically. Will you put the car on a dyno to see the horse power and torque before and after? Any custom tuning or does the Tom's ECU handle it all. Can't wait for you to comment on the engine modifications after install and how she handles the extra power.

Logging on from the phone and starting a new thread is confusing 😂😂 most of the things just don't show up but yes when I get a chance I'll do that 😊

Wow! I'm kinda stuck on that one pic showing your LS right next to a Moonlight Pearl one. It's really amazing how much smaller your car looks there contrasted to the white one. If I didn't know better, I'd be almost convinced that Lexus made a narrow-bodied version of the LS. Color really does play a huge role in the perception of size.

That aside, I'm kinda liking the LED strip lighting I saw running up underneath the carbon wrapped interior door trim.

Thanks... well the car is in the garage right now as we speak getting its supercharger installed... and yes after that I will be taking it to the dyno to see the final results on the Hp/trq and see the difference with my friends stock ls430.. but if I'm not mistaken it will end up with 350-370hp /540torque for a ls430 that's enough 😊

No custom tuning it's all on the Toms ecu .if I did a custom tuning I can definitely get more hp/torque out of the supercharger. I'll keep you posted on the extra power reaction 😊😊

Yea my car near the stock ls looks completely different in the size 😂😂 and yes interior wood trim got them wrapped with 4D brown carbon fiber vinyls and soon after the car is done from installing of the supercharger thinking of making the interior strip on the doors just like the new Sclass mercedes where u can change the colours when and where ever u want to

Love the roof spoiler too. Which one is that?

If I could ever find a way to integrate a full-length strip of LED brake light on the underside of that bad boy, I'd be very happy.

The roof spoiler was bought from ebay back in 2014 (when i bought the ls430)

Lots of work went into the car - my biggest question is, does the odometer read 530092 kilometers?
That'd be most impressive!
Regarding the apparent size difference between the white and blue cars - I think it's not the color, but simply optical distortion from a phone camera.

Id say the camera and even the bumper design makes it look small compared to the stock bumper shape and yea the odometer reads 530092 the gauge was shipped with the supercharger kit and i installed it. But right now i put it down to 10000kms 😂😂😂 but on the orginal gauge the car is driven (in miles since its an amercian spec) 44000miles i bought the car when it was driven 32000miles (and yes i confirmed it with the vin number thats what it was written when it got shipped from usa)

Gotta disagree. I took that pic into PhotoShop, drew a line across the trunk deck of the blue LS, then copied it over to the white one. If it were the camera lens (creating a barrel distortion) the white LS trunk lid would measure wider than that of the blue one. But it doesn't. In fact it shows as being narrower than the blue one - (as is consistent with the falloff of a normal perspective view).

It's definitely the color making it look narrower. That's why people (women mainly) who what to look thinner wear darker colors. https://answers.yahoo.com/question/i...2185012AAMo23K
