IM BACK!!! VIP styled GS300 from the 808 state!

VSC!!! Waddup!!! Oh how I missed this place soo much! Ive been gone for awhile but now I am back in the game!! If some of you don't know who I am or where I come from,here's my old thread of my old '94 GS300.... http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7049
http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15474
and my old '01 LS430.... http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13509
Well I got rid of my LS430 so I could get back into a 1st gen GS again. Crazy huh?! LOL! But here's the kicker.......after 3 years of regret of selling my GS,I tracked it down and bought it back! To me it was a better idea,and cheaper than building up another one again. Haha! Now onto the pics....

that's enough picture wh0ring for now. LoL! ....since I sold it there has been some changes. Like the trunk setup,the wheels and the window trims that I custom polished has been painted over. The car now rolls on 20x9.5 Maya STM wheels. Im not too happy on the fitment because they suck compared to when I had the car last. But hopefully sometime in the future i'll be getting better wheels and will be going back to 19's. Other plans will be to replace the KYB struts with Megan Racing coil overs and put the bags over them. So I can get lower and have dampening adjustability. Ohh and I have been contemplating on buying a turbo kit for the car. But that can wait. Haha!

Thank you all for the welcome backs! It kinda feels good to be back in my GS! Although I do miss the power and pimpness of the LS430 :/ lolz!

Nothing major has been to the car since I sold it looks but I'll list what I can....
Full Junction Produce bodykit,shaved front fenders,rolled/flared rear fenders,cleared JDM head lights with LED board marker light,JDM tail lights which I shaved off the "ARISTO"on the middle light,6000K HID's in the headlight and fogs,LED license plate light,KYB GR2 struts,UAS air suspension,20x9.5 "Maya STM" wheels (the previous owner told me they were Maya wheels,but I suspect they are not real Maya's),eBay intake,"VIP" style mufflers,double DIN Alpine dvd screen,RE Audio 10" sub,RE Audio amps,LED interior lights.....yeah I think that's about it. Haha!

Haha yeah bro! I got some friends on Oahu and whenever they seen the car they would take a picture of it and send it to me just to make me feel all sick and jealous. Haha! Well i gussed it worked,,thus I bought the car back!

I guess that's one good thing about living on an island,kinda easy to track things down. Haha!.....my friend works with the previous owner and he told me if I wanted to buy it back in he was willing to sell it to me.

Although I wish I could change wheels every other week,that wont be happening. Money aint rolling in the way it used to. Lmao!......so I will just have to make due with it for now. I painted the spokes on the wheels satin black.gives it a different look and I think I like it. I'll throw on some spacers to get it stanced out. Other plans will be to redo the rear mufflers.same style though. Those are the wheels realistic plans. For now i think im happy the way it is and see's no reason to rush modding it. Maybe ii'll do something later for a future car show. But idk?

After I sold the LS and got out of the "VIP" style scene I ventured out to the Honda scene. I got a '94 Civic and owned it for 3 months.
Forum image
I got bored of that car "it was an automatic.LoL!" And then traded it for a '92 Integra
Forum image
I owned this car for about a month but it wasn't a great daily driver. I slammed it to where there was no suspension travel and about a 1" ground clearance. Hhaha! So I sold it to get a suitable DD.
After goinng through those 2 Honda/Acura's I realized I belonged in a Lexus! Haha! So I got a '93 SC300

this car I plan to leave it STOCK! ......well maybe just coilovers and wheels. Hahaa!

Wheels are Varrstoen 2.2.2. ....And before I get flamed for rocking replica wheels,I don't claim them to be Volk TE37's! I know better than that. But I am however using real Rays Racing lug nuts! Haha! I love how the wheels gives the car a more sporty look.....Imma add a 15mm or 20mm spacer in the front to get the stance flush when aired out.....oh and I know someones gonna ask so I might as well say the wheel specs. LoL!
Fronts - 19x9.5 +12
