Gorilla Industries GS430
Hey guys,
I thought id put the family car up. As I know its so hard to find info/parts for these.
A bit about me, I have been a member for years as I did own a 1JZGTE powered IS200/Altezza in 02.
I love Supras, I race them and build them. Gorilla Industries is a parts supplier for all things JDM but we mainly concentrate on Toyota/Lexus and in particular Supra and MR2.

Currently re-building our Supra after a big crash last year.
Enough on the Supra, here is our Lexus GS430:
I have access to a ***** load of wheels! My garage (we have storage place too)

The day I picked it up


Tried on some 19 x 8 and 9 +35 Meisters S1 (245 all round) I think they look a bit to "boy racer". Didnt use them




.

Ended up giving them to my sister for her Rav4...baddd mistake, all wheels are damaged now!

For ****s and Giggles....19 x 9.5 +12 and 265 Tyre and 10.5 +12 with 305...looks like a Frog. Tried on the Supra street wheels

Rear


Then i bought some BC Coilovers:

They are "ok" but ride quality is not as good anymore.
Another bad choice (Look awesome tho) are the wheels I got next:
19 x 9.5 +15.
19 x 10.5 +28






One of the heaviest wheels I have lifted, scrubbed, car handles crap, they had to go.
I was running 18 x 8 and 9 +35 BBS LM, and the car was just so much nicer to drive and alot more responsive due to the light weight, even gear changes seemed faster! They are a bit old school so I sold them.
So now I have a set of these Prordrive GC010E wheels on the way, forged, lighter than BBS LM

Ive always wanted quad exhaust and after researching saw Ricercato had a kit, I found one used in Japan but the condition wasnt great, so I didnt getit:

I found this set of FSport/TRD Exhaust meant for the IS350. Im taking a gamble and getting my Exhaust Guy to fit it.


Will report back once its done!
And theother day I posted a thread about aftermarket grills, well I scored this used but unknown Carbon Grill! Similar to Blitz?
