I have a second gen ls 400 and want to do mods but i dont know where to start, can i get any advice?

 

Welcome.
Lots of pics are available...to help. Just pick a place to start and let the $$$ fly.

 

what kind of mods are you looking at? i have torn up my car from inside out, except for the engine (why waste a perfectly fine piece of machinery)

 

nuthing too much, think i am going to get tent, and i want a HID upgrade and maby new wheels and tires. I dont know if i am going to do anything to the engine.

 

what do you drive chubby?

 

Wheels + suspension.

 

Chubby: what did you do to your interior since i last saw the car tu?

start with TINT (not tent ) and rims, then go susp and HID.

oh, and SEARCH

 

get some good wide aggressive offset staggered wheels. lower it as much as possible. tint the windows. get the hid kit. get rid of the middle mufflers. put some bass in the trunk. that should get you started. i expect to see all this done by this time next month.










j/k

 

Definitely decide what you want to do first - improve handling, power, interior, exterior and in what order. Use this site as there are great resources. I started with my suspension - I wanted a tight handling LS and now I have it. I think if you decide a plan you'll save money, time and frustration in the log run rather than just buying a bunch of stuff.

 

what are some good exaust systems that i could look at getting

 

well, you could buy something insanely expensive from the high end japanese companies or get something custom made by a good exhaust shop that will cost 1/2 as much and sound just as good. y ou just have to pick what style rear mufflers you want.

 

can i put a 6000k HID kit in the stock lights or do i need to get different ones, if so where can i get the kit

 

yeah just put them in the stock housings. i believe it's an H4 style bulb. look on ebay, the kits'are cheap now. i have had 3 different kits and they all work fine, from $800 in oem parts to the $75 chinese kit.

 

all you need to do is lower the car and add some wheels .....staggered...maybe a lip kit around the car......makes a world of difference in way the car looks!!

 

theres a modified LS400 thread with tons of pics. to start......rims and suspension are a must, your car will look good even if thats all you got
