Got bored with the LS 400...
So, I wish the Supra was ready to rock, however I'm waiting on a set of seats that (I was told) will be here in 8-14 weeks, and it's only been about 1 so far.
So, with that in mind, I got bored so I decided to order a few things for the Lexus:
K-Sport Coilovers
Nardi Woodgrain
Work Meister S2 - 18x9.5 +20 Front and 18x10 +0 Rears
The wheels aren't up to my standards at this time, however we are using this time to dial in the suspension and get the fenders rolled. Within the next month, the car will have new paint as well as the wheels.
My buddy and I are supposed to be rolling the quarters later on this week depending on our schedules.
Keep in mind - I was never intending to do any sort of "VIP" look to this car...I just wanted it dumped on wheels. I just got bored and this was the result - lol
What's next:
Quarters pulled
Bottom panels repainted a darker gunmetal
Wheels refinished (polish lip and face will be the same as the darker gunmetal base on the panels).
RCR Taillights
Exhaust
Tint
The goods:
Here are pictures from a local drift event:
Ugh - I need a PULL!
Comments and criticism is always welcomed.

do you have any pictures of the front fitment?
also wondering what size tires you were running front and rear
would you do more camber in the back? or just going to pull them out more
Overall i think your car is very clean, i like where its going. cannot wait to see what it looks like when you are all done

Tires are as follows:
Front: 225/40/18 Rear: 245/40/18
The goal is to do a pinch more camber in the rear as well as a slight pull and bring the car down a little lower.
Thanks for the kind words man.
Actually my buddy and I had a good time sliding it tonight...but nah, this is just a beater...will most likely never see the track.
Thanks everyone for the kind words!

Damn that looks mean! If you cambered and tucked it a little more it would be game over Really clean. it would look nice with a small trunk lip spoiler and some mild exhaust setup (not the giant leg tripper VIP mufflers)

camber the front a degree, rear a half degree, roll the rear fenders out like ****
raise the front or i guess you could drop the rear... but any lower and that thing is gonna drag *** 24/7
sweet ride otherwise though
