Just got my other things done to the 1995 Pearl White LS400. Recently installed a 5.2L stroker and now it is wearing MeisterR coil overs with G35 19" rims.
The car is riding little rough but it handles like a dream. Thanks to MeisterR C.O. It was a direct bolt on. The G35 rims were chrome. I still need to do final height adjustment on the C.O. most likely another 1/2" to 3/4" on the front.

So does the 5.2L block add any height to the overall engine? I am wondering if if it will interfere with my Tom's STB. Also I too am curious as to what HP/torque gain you got - once it is broken in.

NA i think the gains are just enough to offset the weight increase with maybe a modest gain over stock '95 power. Lextreme's car is probably going to feel pretty underpowered in terms of HP but should give that nice thump in the back when you step on it due to the tq. and the fact that his motor is set up for low compression for his FI setup.

interested in seeing how the MeisterR coilovers go for you, last i heard they were in the RD phase, so you either have one of the first sets period or a demo set, either of which would explain the rough ride (and the fact they're known for using stupidly stiff springrates) since they havent figured out the proper valving for the LS yet.

No mod.. just direct bolt on and clears 95 brakes with flying color. To make the stroker complete, headers, valves and cams should be install.Originally Posted by Zoraone
I really like the look of the G35 wheels. Any fitment issues on the front brakes?

Looks great on those wheels
What engine management are you running? How well do you think the stock ecu/fuel would cope with the extra displacement?
