D2..Weds..Ridetech..lol

Title just came to me.. lol. I really want to thank clublexus for the wealth of knowledge it holds, the GS gurus for trying things out of the norm and finding fixes and sharing with us noobs and the extensive amount of work done by everyone that makes this forum what it is. I also want to thank Figs Engineering, D2 Racing, Figs Engineering, Ridetech, Phantasm Motorsports and Import Motor Works for working with me on getting this done.

Just finished up a couple of things on the GS and just wanted to share it with you guys. I was able to do some testing with the D2 airride and ridetech controllers and I finally got all the kinks worked out and I LOVE IT!!! With just the D2 airride, although a great set up, the control-ability is definitely lacking. Ridetech definitely fixes that. So right now have some D2 coilovers that were customized and matted with the ridetech setup. Figs was gracious enough to make some lower control arms to custom spec as well and along with his toe links helped keep my drive-ability to what is expected out of a Lexus. My wheels came in around the time I got done sorting everything out with the suspensions. They are the Weds Maverick 107D, hence the corny title..and a friend of mine also a clublexus member 'romeo291' who drives the LS400 took some pics this past weekend. Let me know what you think guys.

CL....gurus? Am I missing something here?? I usually don't use those in the same sentence unless it's mediocre bland or conservative thrown in there somewhere.

Just sayin. Car looks clean.
