HI Guys Just came to say Hi
I was just searching for a 06 GS Forums and ended up here
I've got a 2006 GS 300 AWD ( Black ) got it on September 2005 Loving this car
and The Chicago... where the weather is very unpredictible....I got an AWD instead of RWD.. heh
I havn't touched anything under the hood... or the outside..... ( Poor... lol )

I been reading almost every post on the 3rd GS section today........ Very Neat Stuff..... I hope I can do those stuff on my car too...

 

Welcome to CL and glad to hear you're enjoying your GS300

Hanging around here can be dangerous to your wallet though...upgrades and mods become very tempting

 

yep i noticed that heheh
lowering car seems very tempting right now....

and.. anyone with Runflat tires have bouncing problems? on highway.. like 70 mhp and up?
I checked my tire pressure.. it's fine.. at 32psi.. I put the wheel on the balance machine.. it came out fine too.. and it seems the car kinda pulls to left too... ( I am not FAT.. so that can't be the problem) I don't think it's the road either.. cuz it only does that sometime...
other than that...Car is GREAT..

 

Welcome to CL!

Regarding the runflats that came with the car, I always found them to be pretty
harsh, especially over highway connectors. After a few thousand miles they get
a little bit better (or maybe I just got used to it). I was going to get Bridgestone
Turanza LSV's because I hated the runflats, but then I decided to upgrade
the wheels as well.

 

yea.. i guess so...
I should just wait and save some money and get New Tires and Wheels...
dang.. that is going to cost me some money... btw.. If i get a new wheels.. and while putting it on... Hand Torque? or just use Impact Gun... ^^; I could go easy with the Impact Gun...but I don't think i will want to wear the holes down...Since.. i rotate my tire like every 1500miles... heheh

 

As tempting as lowering sounds good luck if you want springs spec'd for the AWD, nobody makes any. Your best bet (right now) would be to try GS430 spec'd springs because the AWD is very similar in curb weight and weight distribution. I've spoken with a fe mfg.s and vendors and Tanabe and eibach are supposedly in development to release springs by Feb-March (hopefully).

 

Oh Oh OHHH
Thanks for the Infos
