So i've saved up quite a bit of money and my original plan was to purchase a SC kit for my GS along with TRD LSD and PI TC.
But i've been talking to the parents and they want me to sell the GS and move onto the E46 M3. (My cousin has a white one and they think it's the prettiest car in the whole wide world
)
If it were any other car i would object and immediately get to finding a SC kit (BTW where is lexondubs?)
But this is an M3 we're talking about and my two top choices were either the M3 or the GS430 from the cousin. (Supra TT was actually ALL THE WAY AT THE TOP... but the parents really didn't want me driving stick and I didn't want an auto supra.) I ended up getting the GS and i love it completely but i love the feeling of the M3.
I was just wondering what other members think? Should I supercharge or move on to the M3?
If i end up selling the GS, I'll have her parted out.
mods include:
exterior:
QUEST Q16 Sport front with Carbon Fiber lip (It's getting repaired from a mishap with a raccoon.)
QUEST Carbon Fiber Half skirts
QUEST 16L rear with Carbon Fiber lip
QUEST Duck Spoiler
Blitz Nur-spec Exhausts
Q45 Gattling Gun lights retrofitted by HightecGS3T (jimmy)
JDM Clear inner tails
UGO CF roof spoiler
Carbon Fiber Plate Garnish
interior:
nothing much. But i do have these weird antennas in the back and wires running up to the front of the car. I'll ask the cousin about this.
suspension:
Tein FLEX Coilovers for rear
Tein HA coilovers for front.
engine:
SRT Intake with Racing ECU.
KAJU custom Cold-air Box
and all my gizmos sitting in my room
1. Alstadt LuBeck's 8.5/19 front and 9.5/19 rear
2. RMM intake in box
3. ARISTO badges (two chrome ones)
4. L-tuned steering ECU
and i think i have some more stuff but i gotta look around.

The kit is painted, just need to pick it up
I think i might leave the front bumper off for the winter and add some #M to cover my investment
And I will definitley take those parts

I have been on all sides of FI for the GS at this point, and honestly, if it were between a SC GS and the M#...I say go with the M3 without a doubt. THat was the only car I would have considered selling the GS for, at times I still wish I would have made that move.
M3 brotha........

I dont get it,this is a Lexus forum,& everyone here says get rid of the GS for a M3,dont get me wrong the M3 is sweet,but if your gonna spend that kind of paper go M5.I had a M3 brand new in 99,& it spent more time in the shop getting stupid repairs than i spent driving it.Just my .02.
Not unless you guys want him to get rid of it so you can get all those goodies.
