Got the fronts installed. Removed the dust shields since ill be using the Sard cooling ducts. The rotors are larger than their gs300 counterparts. 100% bolt on and they came out exactly the way i wanted. I may do the rear next week on my next off day

 

Seats sitting comfortable in the car now that i have the Bride Aristo specific rails.

 

cant wait to see this finished, looking awesome!

 

Me too! Lot of work but enjoying every moment

 

Update! LRB Aluminum door panels made it and i got some nice Memphis door speakers to put it all together again. Installation tomorrow

 

My wife has always been a great help with my cars and she came clutch today helping with installation! LRB panels are in but the speakers didnt quite fit flush so gotta get something different. I love how it all turned out. Super easy install and quality fitment

 

Not much going on right now with the ports all jammed up so havent been really trying to source items out of Japan. Ive contemplated trading in my silver GS or selling it for a RC300 AWD but wife doesnt think its practical with 3 kiddos so now ive gotta perform a thorough tune up on it. Just dropped 4 new o2 sensors in it, new NGK's and now about to do the coil packs and wires this week. Its running very rich so gotta address that. Its not blowing heat so need to change the servo motors. Ughhhh.

But hey, better that a thick monthly car payment i suppose!

 

Sux not being able to get sea shipment on parts due to the ports. So the project is on hold outside of stuff i can get in the states like the R154, Aristo engine clip, etc.

I ditched my silver GS just because i dont feel like repairing a daily driver so i picked up this LS460 from work. Way more comfy and my payment isnt too bad. But im already wanting to mod it

 

Its a nice ride for sure. That silver GS was nice too. Sorry to see it go. Guess you still have the black one to play with though. I'm starting to get back into mine. Will be posting some updates soon.

 

With 3 kids, that extra room in the LS would make for a great family car. Looks very nice, congrats.

 

Funny you mention that! I actually still have it. No buyer yet because i don't want to just give it away. Who knows, maybe ill hang on to it to teach our oldest to drive. Definitely ready to see some of your updates!

 

Exactly! Plus with her having a GX i didn't want to go with another truck/SUV.... This is a nice traveler for both work and vacation

 

Project is still alive just life stuff going on, stay tuned!

 

Any updates?

 

Finally back to getting parts ( moderately )
