Default Intro

Hello everyone, I'm Bryton from SC. I just became the proud owner of an '03 GS300 Sports Design SMG on yesterday (1/7/15). It's black on black with wood accents. I got a really great deal on it and it only had 48750 miles on the odometer.
I'm upgrading from a 94 Camry, so technically I stayed in the Toyota family. I do not currently have any mods, but my long term goal is to get it boosted. I haven't decided whether or not I'm gonna keep what I have or do a gte swap. My first order of business is to get my front passenger door lock actuator replaced. I'll post some pics soon.

Hi guys,

Not a new owner, I previsouly had a '99 GS300 which is now being split for the new addition.

2002 Lexus GS430
1. Exterior Color: Black
2. Interior color: grey but currently being changed to a black and grey mix from my old and new cars
3. Major Options or special packages (Sport Design, etc): Nothing I know of.
4. Audio Options: Standard Nav audio.
5. Any modifications: None at the moment although it came with some horrendous fake split rims (will be getting binned for some super rare RH splits)
6. Anything you want to mention: Looking forward to transforming this 430 into something special and to get that restrictive exhaust off that V8 engine
7. If you are INTERNATIONAL, state which city/country your representing! Cambridgeshire, UK.
8. Post pics or links to your car: None taken as yet, but some images of my old GS300 are below.

Default Hey Guys!

Well, as my first post, here goes:

Just purchased this GS3 two days ago from a local guy. Will be a nice daily and shooting for 600-wheel while getting groceries.

2003 GS300

1. Exterior color: Silver.
2. Interior color: Black.
3. Major options or special packages (Sport Design, etc): Fully loaded, if that means anything.
4. Audio options: Standard HU with 2 old Sony Xplods and a 1000-watt amp.
5. Any modifications: Plenty to list. Still trying to get in contact with the original builder, so no detailed specs. Let's just say it has a snail and will pull.
6. Anything you want to mention: Has just enough problems with it that I can satisfy my OCD by fixing them.
7. SKIPPED!
8. Post pics or links to your car: All pictures were taken before any cleaning (i.e. this is exactly how I bought it).

Default I'm new, Howzit?!

I just wanted to introduce myself to this forum. I've been in the 240SX scene since 2006 but I've always wanted a 2GS. So here I am.

I have a Silver Metallic 2003 GS300 I picked up from an elderly couple. It's got 140k miles and fairly clean. It's a base model so no special stereo or wing, just the factory chrome wheels.

Plans for this is simple for now, maintenance items such as a new water pump (residule coolant around weep hole), timing belt, complete suspension bushing refresh, along with some nice coilovers and wheels. It's my daily so I'm not gonna go too, too crazy... yet lol...

That's it for now, thank you for reading!

Default Been following this form for ages...

Hi guys, my name is Dukes and I'm so happy to finally join the Lexus family. I'm in between Cali & Lagos (Nigeria) months at a time but picked up a 2002 Silver body/black interior/84kmiles, GS430 in Lagos to drive around...as there are no speed limits here & gas is cheap

Been in love with this car ever since a friend torn past me on the highway with it...simply incredible power & acceleration.

The guy I bought it from threw some rims on it, tinted the back window but not all...as window tinting in Nigeria is completely illegal, unless its a factory tint.

The car does have a few problems here and there...but hopefully you guys in the GS family can help me out in the forums.

PS will post pics of my car once I get to my laptop...using a tablet @ the moment.
