BTW the rims sound sick, pure chrome?
And finally I dont know about the SC but doing a simple swap on the GS was a pain in the ***. The 240sx was SO much easier and quicker I was in disbelief.

We shoud wait for the next decent weekend and then plan around it 
I might be joining the dark side within the next year and pick up an E39 M5(Red) 
but will keep the SC as a daily so before I get into all of that we need to get some more meets so I keep myself in the Lexus group!

Whenever weekend is good for me except the 28th and LETS TRY FOR THIS MONTH PPL. =D Or how about Monday the 16th? Martin Luther King day so paid day off at work and no school
Yea Blk on Blk didn't you speak about getting a Benz too?
As for how different the install was on the 240SX there are several things. Spin able front pillow mounts, the ability to lower the whole brake (rotor) system as to working around it in the Lexus, rear shock/spring only held by one huge bolt, etc.
And finally TRD_Power how many cars do you have LOL?

Ummm...no Benz here, the only one I REALLY want is the SL600...but I don't have $120K burning a hole in my pocket.
