I like his car alot... And the Bomex kit is a nice feature.... I liked his car alot better all white but either way I would take it off his hands
He likes it so that is all that really matters His car is SICKY fast ...... Almost 700hp with racing gas... I remember when I first saw his car and read his stats, I had to rush to the bathroom... I mean.......... LOL J/K but very nice and very well done.... Wish I could some close....Shawn

Funny how rumors circulate. That car never made anywhere near 700rwhp regardless of gas, you guys are funny, it had a T04e with a .58 housing, that unit will not flow anywhere near enough to make that kind of power. He made 415rwhp @ 11psi on pump gas, and ran a best of 12.87 on street tires. He sold it awhile ago when the head gasket blew and it had been run with virtually no oil, he now has the NSX and a few other whips. Probably wise not to publicly criticize a ride that's much quicker than yours

Cut and Pasted right off of His CarDomain Site
Over $40,000 in mods not counting price of car SUPER DEAL
As I drive it daily, on pump gas (92 or 93 octane) I run 9lbs (.61bar) of boost. With 9lbs boost, street tires, and no nitrous it runs mid to high 12's in the quarter mile, and pushes 491.4hp with 428.2ftlbs of torque at the crank. (thats 420hp and 366ftlbs torque at the wheels). If you know how to drive and shift good, this puts you ahead of Corvette Z06's, Mustang Cobras, Ford Lightnings, Ferarri 355's, Viper drivers that don't know how to drive, NSX's EASILY, Subaru WRX's, Audi S4's, and many many more.
On race gas (116 octane) you can run 18.375lbs (1.25bar) of boost, 55hp shot of nitrous, and with slicks you run high 10's in the quarter. At this setting you will yield 698.5hp and 583.8ftlbs of torque at the crank. If you ran this on the street Viper GTS, Lamborghini, Ferarri, goodbye. I've only run racegas twice, once at Moroso Dragstrip.

asn, common sense should override what you're reading, a T04e and a 55 shot doesn't equal 700 hp, that whole page is total bull and I welcome the guy to step up. For the record, that clown made that page while Steven still owned the car, I remember we both got a good laugh...
Don't believe the hype...

Is that better?? Come on though, I realize the car is fast but if I painted my car like that and then asked for your opinion there would be replies saying that I was a disgrace to Lexus. Sorry for my opinion!
yup....I hear everyone give people a hardtime over their choice of mods.
the only thing that put this car above 'Lexstasy' was the fact that it had a turbo.
I still think its ugly and could care less who owned it

Edit: Thats not very 'Emerald like' calling someones car "Ugly"....based on mod choice. Knowing that I hate when a million cars look the same.
so let's try that again.....I just would'nt do it to my (or any other) car
And It still wouldnt matter who owned it...I could care less
