Unhappy It's a Sad Day

Well, the time has come to part out my car. Its been a fun ride and my car has come a long way from way back in 2006. I will be selling almost all of my mods. Not sure what's next. Will need to decide on whether a new car is possible or I may just ride stock till I go crazy enough to get a new car I'll hang around for sure though. Here is a quick list of what I will be parting out:

-19" Volk Progressive MEs 19x8.5 F +35, 19x9.5 R +36
With:
-Curb on two rear wheels, small clear coat damage on two left wheels. (Have pics)
-4 TPMS sensors with custom powdercoated sleeve nuts
-Limited edition center caps (only 1500 made)
-Rays lugs
-JIC Magic Coilovers FLT-TAR Custom Spring Rates
-Lexus HKS Exhaust (Discontinued = Rare)

If anyone is slightly interested in any of the items please PM me. I would rather sell local than deal with shipping. I have more detailed pics of the wheels. Can get pics of the other stuff.

Thanks,
Vik

Sorry that you want to part with your mods. Hope you can sell it all but it's not that easy with some things.

What's next for Vik?

I should be going back to work in January but don't plan on buying a new car anytime soon.

Hey Vik,

My wife drives a Prius (which, as an aside, is serviced at Woodfield Lexus) and she loves it. So do I.

When driving my ISF I measure my MPG in 10th's (e.g. 17.1 MPG). When I drive her Prius I measure my MPG's in 10 mile increments! I'm always able to get 50 MPG, sometimes 65+

It's truly an amazing car.

Good luck!

hey Vik can you check to see if the IS & GS share the same suspension parts. I have a good feeling that these will also bolt up to a 3gen GS even though JIC will say they are not specific for the GS. Another member is possibly interested in them and local

I would check with Darrel and he will confirm if they will bolt up. This is a great deal for anyone local that is looking for JIC coils. I drove Vik's car and was amazed with the ride. I have yet to be in a lowered car that delivers as these do. The price is worth it if your looking.

Guys! It's a really sad day! Parting out the car for real this time.

I have an appointment in two weeks to uninstall the coils. Let me know if anyone is interested in the parts (I updated the original post). I would rather sell local.
