Default brands?

There's not much choice for mod in the U.S as far as i know for GS. So what are the brands that are available ? anyone?
I live in California... thanks..

I believe he's kidding. There are shops everywhere in So Cal. They can do from changing the suspension to custome fabricate turbo/supercharger for GS.

Yeah, I have the same problem with my GS...I can't seem to find ANYTHING for it!

Hehehe...all kidding aside, like V300 said, how much dough do you have and what is your goal for your GS (speed, handling, looks?)

sounds like Civic or Integra mods.

I think the GS doesn't have plug wires, it uses some other kind of thing to transfer energy to the spark plugs. I dunno.

I don't think so. He's only made 5 posts and probably hasn't read many.

Then your in CALI the GS capital of the WORLD? Your kidding right?
Easy on the new guy....

Welcome to ClubLexus guai....1SICKLEX is not usually that unfriendly.....

Whatever you do decide to buy....if its cheap or fake, dont tell a guy named MANARAY...

Guai...best way to learn and find out about mods is to visit gallery...see what catches your interest and ask lots of questions (you may want to search around for a specific topic as recurring questions can get kind of annoying to the older members....look at number of posts on left hand side to see how long someone has been around)

Good luck.

...you can use the HKS, Cosworth, GReddy, or JUN 256 duration exhaust cam for the 2JZ. Get an aftermarket exhaust camsprocket to go along with it and fine tune the idle with an A'Pex-I S-AFC.

Cosworth? Is it the same as COSWOR'Z? the bolt-on turbo for 98+ 2JZ-GE company?
